also, oh my god.

i've often had the chance to drink liquor older than i am. i have a bottle of whiskey that was born the same year i was, and i was born in november, so i figure the chances are good that it's older than me by at least a bit.

but oh my god. someone (and i never heard who -- for all i know it might've been anonymous) donated a bottle of port to the festivities yesterday. it was bottled in 1926. NINETEEN TWENTY SIX.

that's older than my parents!

and oh god, it was the most amazing tasting liquor i've ever had. velvet is not that smooth. silk is not that smooth. wow.

AHA! that makes perfect sense, then. it was quite impressive, and clearly this was a fine and special occasion for it to be used on, especially if that's the year ben's grandparents were married and your parents were born.
