Celebration

My friend Carlyle, who descends from the Underwood typewriter people, gave me this bottle of 67 port ages ago. I'm having a glass of it to celebrate this endowed chair. It's the job of a lifetime. I'm in awe of the people there and I can't wait to start work.








...properly decanted of course...

    Not being in acedemia, I didn't realize just what a big deal this is until my wife explained it.

    Congrats, and well deserved.

    As an aside I'd like to note that due to a number of factors ie my brain damage makes for freqent misreadings, the flat onotology you discuss and that I expect to encounter here, and my recent meditations on cyborgs, I misread the beginning of your post as "My friend Carlyle, who descends from Underwood typewriters, gave..."

    It seemed entirely reasonable for an unreasonable length of time.
