There was a recent scandal here in Oregon. The state controls liquor distribution here, and people with the right connections were able to acquire rare, expensive bourbons that the general public had little or no access to. The brand that was mentioned most in the news reports was Pappy Van Winkle.

Brought home the complete Kung-Fu (1972) box set yesterday and watched the pilot, it's a show that's been on my radar for a very long time. Thought the pilot was excellent and I'm looking forward to seeing more I watched that pilot when it was first broadcast, and apparently absorbed a lot from it. I saw it again decades later and several times I realized, "oh, this is where I got that idea that I've been guiding my life by."

I have a souvenir basketball signed by Jerry West and John Havlicek, acquired at a computer trade show in the 1980s or early 90s. The two of them were in good spirits, chatting happily with each other while signing and saying hello to the fans as they handed them their ball.
