General | Posted 11 years agoThe Weekend.
General | Posted 12 years agoHello again friends and watchers.
This weekend has been a sort of mixed bag for The Only Straight Otter. We'll start with all of the bad news first:
-I have not succeeded in my quest to find a woman who can hold my attention with more than her boobs at ISU. This has troubled me a great deal. All of the women here are just obsessed with being slutty, but I find modesty and intelligence much more attractive.
-My computer decided to suck. Yeah. I was playing Left 4 Dead 2, which used to run on very high beautifully, and I get an audio loop about 5 minutes in, a black screen, and finally a crash. This is not a mere CTD. No. Nothing so typical. Instead, windows decides it wants to crash.
I guess there's only two bad circumstances worth mentioning. On to the satisfactory and above, then!
-I fixed it so my computer crashes after a full level, not partial or full stage, in L4D2.
-I cracked open a bottle of Buffalo Trace. For those of you that enjoy bourbon and saving money, give this one a whirl. It drinks beautifully with a single (small) ice cube. All for slightly over $20 per 750ml bottle. That is a standard fifth, ladies and gentlemen.
-My cigars arrived. I purchased AJ Fernandez overruns. These are cigars that were supposed to be in official lines of his cigars, like the Man O Wars, San Lotanos, or Diesel. However, due to improper wrapper color, uneven tones, or other minor defects that don't affect flavor, they are sold without bands for much cheaper. I picked up a 20 pack of churchills for about $35. Under 2 bucks per stick! Here's the really good news: they're damn good.
-I met up with an old friend that I haven't seen for probably close to half a year. I'm thinking since before winter break. I gave him a cigar and he gave me beer. We chilled out like we did when I would visit his Frat house more often than I do now. His frat has kind of gone to shit, which is why I'm glad he has his own place. It was good to catch up. We talked about major switches, new whiskeys we tried, beers, cigars, etc. I'll have to make a point to stop by again.
-I met up with another friend for dinner earlier that day. He took me to a local brewery and made me steak and homemade mashed potatoes. I hadn't seen this guy for like a month. It was nice to finally talk, eat, drink whiskey and beer, and enjoy each other's company over a nice cigar. He finally smoked the Montecristo White I got for him. If you like mild cigars, go for it. Superbly done.

doctorfox bought me a new beer. Left Hand Milk Stout. It is amazing. If you like beers within the stout realm, you have to give this a try. Delicious coffee flavor with a hint of sweetness. Probably the best stout I've had in a while. I highly recommend this beer. It may be pricier than other stouts, but it's well worth it for $10 per six pack.
I suppose that's everything. Thanks for staying with me through this update. Wish me luck in life, and I'll wish you luck in graduating from Skol.
Stay classy out there!

I've returned to FA
General | Posted 12 years agoMy apologies, dear friends, for my absence on FA. I realize that I may have let some of my fans down (all 0 of you). Unfortunately, my life has been fairly busy. Between drinking Buffalo Trace, Russell's 10, W L Weller 12, and Old Granddad 114 and smoking cigars like Man O Wars, Montecristos, Romeos, Liga Undercrowns and the like, I haven't had too much time in between. I will try to make more time to post on here and I may even make myself a profile picture. Thanks for your continued support. Wish me luck in academics, and I'll wish you luck in graduating from Skol.
Best Wishes,
The Only Straight Otter

General | Posted 13 years agoI enjoy the company of a fine, mature, and classy woman. I also like smoking cigars and drinking good scotch or martinis. My favorite cigar is the Man 'O War. My favorite gin is Hendricks. My favorite scotch for the price is Johnnie Walker Black, but flavor wise many single malts are tied for first. I know I may be alienated for my orientation as a Sea Otter, but we are amazing and majestic creatures and that's what makes us awesome. Anyhow, I hope we can get to be great friends and enjoy a Rob Roy, martini, scotch on the rocks, or an Old Fashioned together. No keystone or MD 20/20 por favor.
