National Scotch Day
July 27, 2017
Start your day with a tumbler full of Scotch. Add Scotch to your morning coffee. Sip it from a flask on your way to work. Take a long lunch. Have a Tom Collins with your appetizer, a Rob Roy with your entrée, and two fingers of Scotch, neat, for dessert. Don’t go back to the office, go to a bar. Drink until you’re handsome and charming. Drink until other people are handsome and charming. Scotch is magic!

Feeling fancy? How about a fancy-sounding quote?
“Language can’t describe reality. Literature has no stable reference, no real meaning. Each reader’s interpretation is equally valid, more important than the author’s intention. In fact, nothing in life has meaning. Reality is subjective. Values and truths are subjective. Life itself is a kind of illusion. Blah, blah, blah, let’s have another scotch.” – Dean Koontz, False Memory
