DEAR GOD PLEASE
THOR single-malt whiskey by Highland Park Valhalla Collection. 16-year single-malt whiskey for $199.
Highland Park Thor 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (52.1% 104.2 proof, $199) is golden amber in color with a slightly sweet and fruity nose. Peach, vanilla, and berry intermingle with a soft malt note. There’s the slightest hint of peat underneath but the overall character is light, sweet, and soft. Thor’s entry is a burst (or Thor Hammer if you’d like to stick with the theme) of flavor. The sweet vanilla and peach from the nose are there but they are strongly backed by ginger, cinnamon, and oak spice. Rather than build, Thor evens out in the midpalate, giving you a chance to dig through all the layers of flavor. It’s a little bit of an inversion to many of its peers that start off softer and build. In addition to ginger, peach, cinnamon, and oak, the berry note from the nose makes a return along with sweet malt, honey, and the slightest hint of smoky peat. The finish on Thor is long and slightly dry with a nice combination of honeyed vanilla, ginger, and oak spice. The finish is a little drier than most but it’s a result of the high proof.
I like this…

“I thought I understood it, that I could grasp it. But I didn’t, not really. Only the smudgeness of it; the pink-slippered, all-containered, semi-precious eagerness of it. I didn’t realize it would sometimes be more than whole, that the wholeness was a rather luxurious idea. Because it’s the halves that halve you in half. I didn’t know, don’t know, about the in-between bits; the gory bits of you, and the gory bits of me.”
I’m not moving.

If you gained a ton of weight and got huge tits then the tits you gained aren’t real. Cause when you loose the weight they will go bye bye. And we’ll all still be standing there. And we will know the truth.

“You’re here. There’s nothing I fear. And I know that my heart will go on. We’ll stay forever this way. You are safe in my heart and my heart will go on and on.”
If only life was this simple. If only you realized I don’t want to spend another moment of my life without you. But I guess that’s up to the universe to decide.
