Well, I was on the West coast of Vancouver Island this week, with Ms. Boh & Co. as they laid waste to the local halibut, salmon, ling cod and sole population. And a half dozen crabs.

Much feasting ensued. Not so much partying as they roll up the sidewalks (that they don't even have) at sundown. And zero connectivity of any kind in Port Renfrew, so no Do appearance for me.

But we ate well, saw whales closer than I have ever seen them and it was sunny. A nice way to begin Phase 3 here in BC.

So, not so jealous but glad you had fun too.

Nope. I didn't even like the kind of place you were in last night way back when I was your age

St. John's has a lot to offer, but it did seem like most people were in the greasy nightclub that is Konfusion. Bars were all packed, it was quite something! You guys were only able to experience Republic as Mark and I couldn't rejoin the Do for some reason

Rest assured there are WAY better places to go, it's just that "the republic" was one of the few places currently open! Hopefully for the YYT Do there'll be more options.

A while back we were discussing rum and codfather was waxing lyrical on the virtues of "Old Sam". It looks like Old Sam's logo has fallen victim to the same winds of change that affected Aunt Jemima

Yes, I saw that in the news recently. Not that this change will impact the flavour of the rum, but I just don't see why it was necessary. How can you even tell what the man's race is? It is literally a sketch that shows no actual skin colour.

Interesting. I have a bottle of this in my rum collection right now. Other than the name, I never payed much attention to the label.

A decent rum for Tiki blending.
