"i like my whisky old and my women young."

in a desperate attempt to get elie to actually read and comment on my blog, i am posting elie-relevant information. this past weekend, i heard about the most brilliant investment idea for a scotch/whisky connoisseur: a dram in time. (this is just an example that i could find) i'm shocked you haven't already jumped on it... good thing you have me in your life. anyways, my new friend, jason, purchased a quarter-cask with a bunch of his friends for $200... in five years, he will reap 50 bottles worth of scotch, complete with his own scotch crest. it's better than bonds, i'm telling you. if i were more astute at finance, i would run some sort of return on investment analysis. it would go something like this: quarter-cask of whisky/scotch... $200... 50 bottles of gadlin's finest... priceless.

the best part of this whole deal is that, in the interim, while the scotch is maturing, one can actually ceremonially visit his cask to pay his respects. this is exactly the kind of incentive we need to plan a trip to scotland. deal or no deal, mr. gadlin? i'm sure you could get dreamy todd in on this pyramid scheme.
