Kottabos is one of the earliest known drinking games from ancient Greece. Players flung the remaining drops or dregs of wine in their drinking cup at a target. Dexterity was required to succeed in the game, and unusual ability was rated as highly as corresponding excellence in throwing the javelin.

Joe was the reason he was late to the ball game.
He goes to the car rental place bright and early, sees a long line, leaves, and decides to comes back later. The line is still long and he says it takes him 30 minutes to get a car. Then he shows up late to the team and says the problem was he couldn’t get a car. You left! If you had just stayed and waited on the long line the first time you would have been on time.
It finally happened. I can’t go back to regular peanut butter.
I grew up in a Skippy Super Chunk household. I’ve tried other brands. They are mostly also good, but I was partial to Skippy and stuck with it.
I never understood the people bothering with natural peanut butters. Why would I want to deal with stirring the oil back in when modern science invented hydrogenated fats? What am I, an unwashed hippy? An Amish luddite? Should I be churning my own butter, too?
But I saw enough people raving about natural peanut butter that I decided to give it a try. The stirring was a little annoying at first, but I quickly got used to it. And the flavor was in fact better. I’ve been through three jars of Teddie’s in the last two months.
Well, today I was enjoying an apple with some Teddie’s at lunch when I ran out. I realized I still had some Skippy left in the pantry and used that for the remainder. It was a night and day difference. I didn’t like the texture of the emulsifier or the sweetness of the added sugar.
I can’t go back to Skippy. I’m a stirrer for life now!
