Yes indeed...
Thanks to Rowan for the editing job!
I must clarify two things about the picture though:
- Firstly it was taken by my 6 1/2 year old son. He's not bad at photography isn't it?
- Secondly I don't drink alcohol at all. No wine, no whisky, no beer... nothing. The liquid inside the glass is apple juice.

TedMamere.... apple juice? You must be a reincarnation of Dean Martin. Everyone thought he was drinking whiskey by the gallon while performing onstage in Las Vegas, or in movies. He was actually drinking apple juice... according to Jerry Lewis (who spent more time within inches of Martin's mouth than any woman). I know, useless trivia!
