Make Your Home Sparkle ✨ Everything You Need for a Deep Clean

 from the Lehman s advert

and this post is Issue 2776 in the series


If Amazon takes over the world - we here are responsible

Speaking of Amazon, you weren't and don't care. I ordered a pair of Luenx sunglasses < polarized > for 17 dollars. Fit was great and comfortable like you wouldn't believe. My face is Asian and slightly flat. Without an adjustable nose piece, the glasses sit on my upper cheek. Alright for some minutes, painful at an hour. These Luenx are beauts. OK dummy - pay a little more and get real sunglasses.

Except. Sunglasses for me are like socks - ' Oh, you lost a sock ' whats new. Experience. Bought a pair of prescription sunglasses ( $ 125 plus in say 1980 ) that lasted 1 week and had an anchor drop on them.

AN ANCHOR ! yep an anchor. The glasses got bent.

Back to the story. Inside the box w/ the sunglasses comes a soft carrying case < actually 2 b/c the wrapper is resealable and as good as any case > and a card.

" If you like these glasses, review us at Amazon and send the review and order no. We will offer you a second pair for your effort, free of charge "  What a come on.

Except they did. The second pair < even better, called aviators - wider lens and lighter frame > arrived yesterday. Four days after they promised to ship the item.

Bonus !. And, yes there's more " If you like we will add your name to our promotion list. In the future we will ask you to receive and review new complimentary products "

I know, these glasses will give me cancer or something.

Fishing Monday and Tues. Same story, a few fish but largemouth are hitting. Not giants but interested in chasing a plastic worm. And I fought the wind again, both days.

By accident, I purchased an old of date bottle of beer. The Liquor Control board sold me the beer but I contacted the brewer who aksed for information on the purchase. He said that the Board would not take reponsibility. However, his company sent a promo gift.

To repay them, I ordered a beer delivery from them.

One of the beers was Vienna Lager. I liked it. I thought of the name Vienna and sent the following

"" A song by Billy Joel

The first name of American singer - songwriter, Vienna Teng
Might I recommend : 
" the Drawing of the Dark " by Tim Powers
published by Del Rey Book via Ballantine, NY
The major location is the ' Zimmerman Inn ' formerly the St Joseph Monastery, home of the Herzwesten beer, Vienna.
The hero Duffy discovers a vat w/ 3 spigots at varying heights.
The owner, wizard then says 
" that vat has been in operation for 3 and half thousand years. Its like the solara method of blending sherry. Ordinarily, the vat would need to be cleaned but there are no floorboards. The beer seeps down into the dirt. The dirt doesn't rise.
The vat is built on the grave of Finn McCool. The top 2 layers are the famous Herzwesten light and bock. But the bottom spigot is for Herzwesten Dark. Actually, its like ' Finn broth ' - the essence of Finn McCool.
Hence, the drawing of the dark. Physically, spiritually potent.
Finn McCool is legendary king of the Beaker people, King of the Celts.
< the beaker people were believed to transmit the knowledge of beer making around Europe.
The city Vienna was originally named ' Vindobona ', literally, city of Finn  ""
