Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.
Display:
So pick up a bottle from behind the saloon bar, hold in big fist, pull out cork <squeak>, pour <glug glug glug> a generous half-glass brownish slugaroo, knock back in one, grimace but only just, wipe mouth with back of hand, feel the mix of capillary lotion and weedkiller scald the oesophagus and enter the stomach in a fiery ball, emit sharp sigh of satisfaction <haar>.

If you can't rant after that, there's no hope for humanity.

Merry !@#! Christmas, Izzy!

Oh, as everyone saw in Paris, I have no problem ranting in person, it's just writing it down that's the trouble...

Plus, I'm not sure I can make a big fist, afew, but thanks for the advice and the xmas wishes!

Maybe we can eventually make language a complete impediment to understanding. -Hobbes

Just fake the big fist. Even the drink can be tea.

It's the ritual that counts, you know that.
