What Did You Drink Last Night?
I had some Bruichladdich Rocks--an unpeated single malt. Bracing and floral but with the depth that is so satisfying. Now, don't get me wrong--I love peaty monsters and sometimes, nothing short of a Lagavullin will do (you wake up feeling like you dragged a peat bog into bed with you no matter...- Alex Oviatt

What Are You Reading
Reading "West with the Night" by Beryl Markham. Right up there with my favorites by St. Exupery--"Night Flight" and "Wind, Sand and Stars" (aka "Terre des Hommes")--seriously good stuff. I know, evryone talks about "Le Petit Prince" and yes that it brilliant but not the same. Occasionally I...- Alex Oviatt

What are you listening to?
In advance of tomorrow's Irish shenannigans I have been listening to Glenn Miller's version of the Londonderry Air. Oh, yes, Danny Boy makes all American Irish weep, but I prefer this. Maybe it is because I am not Irish? Tomorrow I will be Irish for the day, though--every one in Los Angeles...- Alex Oviatt

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
LOVE that movie. One big love letter to Los Angeles and great quirky performances. Every time I go to the Redwood Room I think of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and remember why I never--ever--do karaoke....- Alex Oviatt

My Finest ART DECO Item
[/IMG][/IMG] I think that this 1930s pocket watch/travel clock by the New Haven Watch Company is a perfect little piece of Deco design. Also very pure Deco is this set of silverware that my grandmother got in the 1930s.- Alex Oviatt

He was blind in one eye from having bent over a bramble hedge to free a dog's paw and got a thorn stuck in his eye. He went on to become the president...- Alex Oviatt

Are You Brave Enough to Share Your Prom Photos?
I am brave enough--just hopeless figuring out how to scan and then post old photos. Mine--despite being in 1980 was actually pretty retro--it was on the Queen Mary. I wore a white DJ and my date--bucking the trend towards pastel Qiana and wore a whispy white silk 20s style dress with a...- Alex Oviatt
