I prefer my spirits neat! (Except when mixed.) And I applaud your good humor!
Patrick Moore, whose role model for weight and longevity is GK Chesterton: "Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). ... During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not "out at the Front"; he replied, "If you go round to the side, you will see that I am."On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin"." "Chesterton wrote around 80 books, several hundred poems, some 200 short stories, 4000 essays, and several plays. He was a literary and social critic, historian, playwright, novelist, Catholic theologian and apologist, debater, and mystery writer. He was a columnist for the Daily News, the Illustrated London News, and his own paper, G. K.'s Weekly; he also wrote articles for the Encyclopædia Britannica, including the entry on Charles Dickens and part of the entry on Humour in the 14th edition (1929)." [He was contemptuous of socialism and communism and truly hated capitalism, even in the juvenile form it took in his life.] He died at 62 but I'd rather die young having lived much than die old having fretted my life away. Patrick Moore, who has hardly the wit nor the girth of Chesterton and who is dragging this thread even further into the OT wilds (and who will now cease to comment on the subject).
