I just smoked my second cigar of the day. I have 81 years to go to catch up with him.

If he is 111 years old, wouldn't that have made him 46 in 1942?

It's against US Postal Service regulations to put bottles of Buffalo Trace into bubble wrap and mail them to a very nice man in Austin. Even if you tell the lady behind the counter it's really a lava lamp, when she shakes the box and hears a suspicious gurgle.

So I never did that.
