Scott, you've started down a long expensive road. We have a local restaurant chain called the Winking Lizard that is branching out to whiskey bars. They've got a huge book of whiskeys from the whole world to choose from. Unfortunately, I found I have the same expensive taste. The last one I sampled was $30 for a long pour shot. But it was worth every sip!

That must be the book Dave carries with him. ; I am sure the occasional expensive pour will happen, too. ; :)
 
It's the same with any spirit. ; Aging makes the finished product smoother and mellower, but as they say, time is money. ;)
 
The Crunch played a game in the Verizon Center on Sunday and I took advantage and stayed after for a couple of days to visit a few Smithsonian museums including the Air & Space. ; Click the photo to read more about this spaceplane which almost became the direction of the US Manned Space program back in the early 60's.

A model of Luke's landspeeder used in the filming of Star Wars. ; If you have a sharp eye, you'll see that Obi-Wan Kenobi is being played by Steve Austin (the six million dollar man). ; In the background is the full-sized version, complete with wheeled undercarriage.

This kid will be in the NHL next season. ; Amazing speed and natural talent. ; Second generation player whose Russian Dad played for the Crunch in 1994 when Vladdy was 3 years old. ; Note: this was taken with a Nikon 24-120mm f/4 AF-S VR lens on a Nikon D7100. ; Renting this lens for a few days which will cover 4 Crunch home games as a future replacement for the older Nikon 24-85G f/3.5-4.5 AF lens I use now at ice level.

Cool! But good grief, I really don't like what Flickr did with their site.

I wholeheartedly agree, Erich, but that's what we're stuck with.

You kids get off of my lawn!
 
Meanwhile, back in Metropolis...
Cincinnati Union Station was the inspiration for the design of the Hall of Justice. ; The hall was the Headquarters of the Super Friends, a group of DC Comics super heroes brought together in a cartoon series in the 1970s. ; In real life, the train station now serves as the Cincinnati Museum Center and is worth a visit to view the Art Deco splendors both inside and out.
