I was just using some today to erase permanant marker from a hard surface. It worked. now the pin is labeled correctly as 56 instead of 65. Well actually a coworker did the erasing and rewriting, I just found the bug. Who'da ever thunk someone else would make the dyslexic mistake?
Anyway I used some more to sterilize a cut after that. Handy stuff.
O course I do like a bit of cognac every now and again. Though I remember you being more into madiera?
I remember you being more into madiera Not exactly. One of the guys I worked with at Televideo was a precious wine collector, and he landed a transfer to France. Most of the wine in his collection was from France, and ironically France has a law against re-importing wine, so he was forced to part with it. Instead of selling it fast and cheap on the local market, he decided to host a going-away party for his wines. One of the items was a bottle of 150-year-old Madeira, and it was the best wine I had ever tasted. Which may not be saying much because I'm not much of a wine drinker. But for a while I tried whatever modern Madeiras I could find, to see if anything came close. Nothing did.
I was thinking of your fondness for the song. I've never tasted it myself. Probably the closest I have come is port, but I'm not sure of my wines and how they are all related.
