few beverages, and last night was brooklyn brewery pilsner and rising moon from blue moon and then moved on to whisky. we cracked open the six isles whisky i got for my birthday. very

update. so the last netflix movie we had was Barton Fink. not a movie for everyone, but may be of interest to anyone that has ever tried to reconcile art and industry. on friday evening, we went out
