Epic...


He whose name dare not be mentioned is a man of...


Yes indeed...

And when He throws a "small gathering" you can rest assured... it might just be epic.

Last night...

(*SIGH*)

...between He...

...Me...

...and James O'B...

(*PAUSE*)

First up: One unopened 750 ml. bottle of Glenfiddich 18 year old. (Finished in a mere two pours per man...)

Folks... understand... this was after a gluttonous bbq featuring swordfish... jumbo shrimp... burgers... dogs... salads... knishes... and beer, beer, and more beer...

But, no, folks... one bottle of 18 year old single malt is but a wetting of the ol' whistle for a man of the stature of "He" - sharing with "We."

To set the scene, at this point we're drinking in the "front" living room - where the speakers are.

What speakers...???  "His" speakers! "His" $30,000-$40,000/pair speakers that render all music "live" for all intents and purposes.

So there's us... our scotch... our wives... their kids... (remember, Kim's in Abu Dhubai)... and the party is just getting started!

Next bottle...

(*DRUM ROLL*)

Tis time to crack open - and drain - a 750 ml. of The Glenlivet 18 year old.

My friends... life is good here at Chateau Barker... indeed, at the moment there's half a bottle of Macallan 18 year old sitting on my bar, along with a Lagavulin 16 year old and... (well... you get the idea.)

But to enjoy the hospitality of "He" - and "Mrs. He" - is to truly know that God loves us and wants us to be happy!

Three men... two bottles... much beer... fine food...

MUCH MERRIMENT...!!!

Singing.... dancing... letting the kids enthusiastically join in... (But no scotch for them!) Even a few slow dances with the wives...

Thanks for a memorable afternoon and evening, my friend! It was... epic.
