Nearly two years later and he's still alive, and still making headlines......and I'm still not drinking JWB.

Pretty bad screw-up on the part of the doctor, imo. I wonder what the medical report actually said. How "sure" was this doctor, or team of doctors, when they gave their report to the Scottish minister?btw, I still drink Scotch. The distillers didn't release this guy.

We are having a party tomorrow night with some people very important to my wife. She asked me to go to the liquor store and get some provisions. At least one of the guys is a Scotch Drinker and I am nearly out of Scotch. I told her that for this party I could break my vow.Then literally minutes later I read about this...

I think it is tasteless to take any joy in death. And I take none in the death of this monster. I believe he deserved to die in prison and his release was a complete disgrace of the Scottish justice system. That's just my point of view. However, I will not do anything sickening like toast his suffering nor ultimate passing. I "boycotted" scotch as a personal symbol of my displeasure of his release.Tomorrow during our party I will silently have a glass of scotch for the first time in over 2 years. I will think of the 270 people murdered on December 21, 1988. I will also think of the soulless man near death in a Villa in Libya instead of a prison cell in Scotland. I will think briefly of Justice. ...and I'll get on with my life.

I know. I just like the blends more than Singles. I really should just stick with bourbon. All I have int the Liquor cabinet is Macallan and Glenfiddich. I opted for the Macallan.
