- How disappointing. What an anti-climax the last sentence was.
- I thought Ken would have said something like:
- "A heavy drinking friend of mine says he once bought a bottle and
- the combined weight of him and the bottle made a large dent in the tarmac"
- or
- ".... he once bought a bottle and is now mailing it to you."
- or
- ".... he once bought a bottle but now ships it in kegs"
- or something else.

- Thank you so very much.
