OT: Bullshitting at the Barbershop

Son sells 28 years of birthday whisky to buy house

Whenever I go through Heathrow, I stop at World of Whisky to grab a bottle of something for my dad. One year I picked up a bottle of 25 year old McCallans. It was the only time I saw my father cry.

Was back through London a few years later, and told the whisky guy what I got last time and that I was looking for a similar taste. Before I could finish my sentence, he grabbed my arm excitedly and asked if I still had the 25.
When I said no, he shook his head "too bad, that would be worth a lot of money now". I didn't want to ask how much.

So, Formula 1 is not much of a drama inducing sport. This past weekend a poor start, a pit stop mistake (entering pits when they were closed) and a blown engine meant that the typical top 3 cars were not in the top three. For the first time since 2013, a car other than Ferrari, Mercedes or Red Bull won a race. And for the first time since 2008, the podium did not feature one of those three teams. Also, a guy born in France won a race for the first time since 1995. Oh, and the guy who won it, got demoted from Red Bull last season.

This guy capitalized on it
Satsade 20 cent – vann drygt 33 000 euro på svårtippade pallplaceringar

He placed a 20 cent bet and it paid 34,000 euros.





Canadian boy Lance Stroll was a bit of wheel spin on a restart away from winning it himself, BTW.

So, this was in a town about a half hour north of me last night. At roughly the same time my son was driving through said town on his way back to college. Not his photo BTW. And it never got to ground.

He leaves. 20 minutes later, the sirens go off. We look at Google and his phone is right in the middle of the big red splotch.

"Ride home was wild, got a free car wash though" was his "I'm home" text.

Is that what's causing all the smoke around here right now?
