So last Tuesday, I was in suburban Detroit to prove that
identically numbered addresses at 21xxx West Road in
Woodhaven and Trenton were one and the same. BTW, they are.
After a jaunt to the Bell Isle Aquarium, and a spontaneous private mini-tour of Ford Field (thanks again, T.J.) it was off to A2 for dinner with people who read the sock for fun stories about pissing on peaches and Escort door locks. And shit.
Anyway, before pasta and cake, Phid ponied up for some of this

(plus a fine $10 cigar). Phid is very bad about
letting me pay for stuff, in that I never pay even my share unless
I beat the shit out of him so he can't steal the check and pay
it. Bastard! (P.S., thanks again you overgenerous fawker.)
As I was saying, tasty, and a lot less like molecular acid than the usual hooch I drank in my hooch-drinking stupor-filled earlier days. It's the hint of madeira(?) that makes savoring doubleplusgood booze worthwhile. Or it's the pine nuts.
Stupid designated driver bit meant I had to sneak a snort
inbetween pseudobeers, but it was worth it. Plus, since wifey now
thinks that carbs are evil, I may have to switch to hi-test booze from my usual football/strip club beer of choice. So, I have a starting point. But WTF IS
madeira, and how will I know if I taste it? How is it different
than dogshit, which is what Marlboro reds taste like? Inquiring
minds...
