The men have more sense… but I am a boy

Actually managed to find a bottle of bison-grass Zubrovka. It’s a vodka I had in Prague a few years ago but have been unable to find on sale since.

Dude in the store was surprised when I mentioned that it was so hard to find:

Dude: “Ah, that’s because you haven’t been going to the right place”

Me: “Obviously, would you recommend anything else?”

Dude: “Well, we have scorpion vodka as well (holds up a bottle with a pickled scorpion inside). It separates the men from the boys”

Me: “What… you mean the men have more sense?”

Dude: ” Hahahah… you, my friend, are a funny man. Come back soon”

Me: “Yeah, it’s a safe bet you’ll be seeing a lot of me”

.. and so on.. I really like that store…

Indeed half an hour later we’re back in for cold cans of beer…

The Longest Day

The Longest Day I was blown away by. It far oustrips Saving Private Ryan in it’s subtley, sincerity, and, frankly, cinematic skill.

Where Private Ryan opted for shmaltz; the Longest Day delivers humanity.




Suscribe to my drivelly ramblings

I want to kill everyone. Satan is good. Satan is my friend.
