But these days are different - I (and my two too far away sons) will be attending an online whisky tasting experiment - they send you the samples by post, and then, a zoom session convenes for the lucky first subscribers to exchange about the booze ;-) Who? would have imagined that then ? As to CNN on the left screen, is it that so surprising? In fact I find it comforting. Well, I would have Fox on the other monitor positioned further right on your photo. Which is in fact what I?ve been doing over this testing period ? Hope it won?t last that much, and we can all resume normal life and sit in front of the box sipping a couple of cans of beer ? or invite the whole family for a nice dinner in a good restaurant while there?s still time for us all to share. Jim, you?re someone I admire and respect and always will, as much as I did Steve and Ted, and do many others here. Be sure of this if you ever doubted of yourself. And now to something completely different !
