A bit like cheap grain alcohol. But I'm curious. Do you think a vatted malt can be as good as a single malt? Talisker – Your comments are almost always nasty and uninteresting.

Now we have if not the Rodent as the Conman, $weety telling us everything's economically hunky-dory, the A dollar only dropped 10% in the last week so clearlythe world thinks our economy is basically RS, ie Rilly Strong...

Pity it turns out to be a photoshopped Johnny Howard parody. as perverse as this may seem, my immediate impression of that last graphic was of Lt.Commander Montgomery Scott in his red-shirted USS Enterprise engineering uniform.
