I specifically offered to be Scotch czar, as I will confess more
ignorance in the areas of the Irish and Kentuckians.

Given what has been said about it being a dry county (isn't this the
21st century now?  geez...) I now plan on making a stop in Asheville
on Friday to pick up some top shelf single malts.

If people could let me know that they would like to partake of some
high quality Scotch, I will buy accordingly.  I figure I will have
enough room for at least four 750s, running $40-$70 per bottle for 12
year old plus vintages.  (Well, maybe one under 12 ... the Glenfarclas
105 is always interesting.)  Tell me your tastes and how much you
realistically think you'll be drinking over both nights, and I'll
purchase accordingly.  We can settle up on money at the RCR.

Since I'm stopping at the liquor store anyway, if anyone has
non-Scotch requests let me know and I'll see how they can be
accomodated.

On a related note, Sharon for those of us who will not be drinking the
communal liquids, do we still have to send in our form in advance or
can we just bring it down?
