nother bottle of the doublewood -- arguably one of my favorite scotches. Balvenie just doesnt make a bad blend.
A fab birthday gift from my buddy Jason.

Glengoyne 17 Year
Really, really good Scotch. Thanks to Dale for scoring a bottle of this for me. One of my new faves.

Glenlivet 12 Year Old
Good stuff. I love Glenlivet after visiting the distillery on our trip to the UK last year.Very good basic scotch, a little rough around the edges but really enjoyable. Hint of florals and apple, dry and clean.

Digital Fortress
Not bad, not as good as the Da Vinci Code. I enjoyed it -- deals with cryptography and some real-world potentials. Little off on the math tho.

Getting Things Done
Some really good stuff -- the two minute rule (get it done now if it takes < 2 minutes), the "do it, delegate it, defer it, drop it" rule, etc.
