Irish or Scotch Glenn? My favourite single malt Scotch is Dalwhinnie 15 year old. Very reasonably priced and doesn't have that heavy peaty taste associated with the Western Isles single malts. The Irish whiskeys we sampled were Bushmills, Cooleys and Jameson 20 year old. Almost everyone agreed the last one had the best taste.

I just got back from a trip to London, Ontario. I was staying with my sister-in-law and her new boyfriend asked me to join him for a whisky tasting dinner that he puts on once a month for about 40 guys in a local pub called the Waltzing' Weasel. Usually it is single malt scotches they sample but this month it was Irish. They are up in the $200 a bottle range and have sampled over 100 single malts. Most of the guys who attended were Profs from the local University, Doctors and Lawyers. What a fun night it was but these guys drink way too much even for me! My consumption was 3 pints of Smithicks (Irish draft bitter and my favourite beer) and 6 glasses of Irish Whiskey. By the end of the evening I was feeling no pain. That came next morning. I was seated opposite a nice guy who turned out to be a Lutheran Pastor. This guy could drink like a fish and attends every tasting. At one stage, after tasting a 20 year old Jameson ($90 a bottle) he declared that he could detect the taste of leather. I don't know why but I chipped in and said "and perhaps a hint of whip". That brought the house down and the pastor laughed the hardest.

Kelly, I have already sent you an email about this but I also wanted to express my sadness on the Danger Dogz Forums. Loosing a pet is one of life's great miseries. There is nothing anyone can say to make up for that absolute trust that a dog adds to your everyday life. I think it is even worse because of the guilt one feels after they are gone. Doones had 17 good years which is a long time for any dog. We are proud to honour him as a true Danger Dogz.

Way to go Jimbo. No wonder you have my number.

Nice fish there Von Tonar. Is that a cutthroat trout? I also do a lot of fly fishing wet and dry on my country estate.

It could be the patch has fixed some of the earlier problems. I never trusted it before but I do now.

That looks like real fun Dazza. Good handling or over modelled?

Boy! These are good. :diabloanifire:

You guys are getting weirder by the minute.

You sure about that Mr. Enk? Not the dog near your nutz but where you put the jacket. I think the jacket goes in Pilot not skins.

I see a new squad in the making! Tuesdays are currently open.

Von Tonar Sir. If you are going to get Track IR make sure you get the Track IR4. Although it looks more a bit more expensive, with the extra stuff you get that is included like Vector Expansion it is no more expensive than Track IR3 Pro and better. And Aresenal, you had to bring my bomb dropping on the runway up. It's the only way I get to kill some of the other pilots in the group. lol

Welcome sir. I see you found your way here ok.

Arsenal has also offered to game host after I help him get set-up. Pooka is also close to game hosting as well and can do TS if required.

Looks very good Rog and sorry it took you 9 hours to do. I had 4 1/2 hours of Joint Ops and another 4 1/2 hours of flying last night so I also feel a bit burned out this morning. HELEN WHERE'S MY TEA? I see the new Forum has a REGISTER button.

My two buddies showed up again this morning and the light was better. I also used a longer lense and was able to catch the colours. I have decided to name them jensenpark and cold_gambler and might eat them after all.

That's funny Redeye and very clever.

Ouch!

I highly recommend FS Auto Start which you can get here: http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az= ... id=2&page= You will need the software plus the patch. With FS Auto Start you can shut down all the services and programes you don't need to run FB. I can walk you through set-up on TS if you would like and then Dave can write a procedure lol. It will make your game run much better with fewer lockups etc. A definite for all hosters.

Apparently very good eating but Helen and I have agreed that I should not shoot them. There are flocks of 40 odd birds around here.

I liked the movie too Waldo. Showed a different side of the war.

Ever have the need to insert a character which is not on your keyboard into a document? Common examples of this would be copyright or trademark symbol. You can insert these characters by using the Character Map program provided by Windows: Start > Accessories > System Tools > Character Map Simply select the characters you want, copy them to your clipboard, then paste them into your document. Character Map will even tell you Alt keyboard shortcut so you can insert them using the keyboard shortcuts in the future. ° This is the degree symbol I just copied over or perhaps you need £ Many of you will already know about this but I didn't so I thought I would share.

I have mentioned to some of you that wild turkeys have shown up at our bird feeder. I was fortunate enough to get a couple of pictures of them at first light this morning. The second picture has two of them in it. Wild turkeys are making a big comeback in Ontario and we now see large flocks of them nesting in the trees. Winter is hard on them and these two guys look a bit thin.

Nice cleavage on that aircraft sir.

I was truly very sorry to read your post m8. I hope you will be able to work things out. You are part of the DD family now Jim and if there is anything we can help you with, do just ask. If you need to get away for a while you are more than welcome here. Take all the time you need m8.
