I do some trading and speculation, drink, and homebrew because it's fun.

Having lived in Germany, I have a soft spot for Altbier and Koelsch. That said, I support my local microbreweries in a big way. I love scotch in a way that only Ron Burgundy understands.

Diving, home brewing, dicking around on /sci/, writing my own horrifically shitty SF, lizard-keeping, and identifying with most Foul Bachelor Frogs.

I need an engineer sometime in the near future. That, or an architect.

I want 5 domes, 2 levels above ground and a basement each, of 3,500 ft^2 bottom floor space. I wan them to have basements connected by tunnel. I want them to form a pentagon arrangement. In that pentagon, I want an atrium that is glassed in. Is that feasible?

I'm a huge fan of nearly every form of passive entertainment: Video games, books, music, television and film. It's expensive being me. I also like to fence, but I'm pretty busy at the moment, so not so much.

[Anonymous No.3999358]

>>3999316
The five domes are to interconnect in a pentagon arrangement. The space within the domes should be a large, glassed-in garden/atrium.

I want enough room in my heated atrium/garden/greenhouse for:
A small wet bar
Some lounger chairs
a small artificial stream with fish
a few hummingbirds
a chrysalis incubation chamber
a pond or two
a pair of mertens water monitors
some bromeliads and flowering plants
some geckos

I don't live in a cold area but I hate winter. I want a private garden of Eden where I can retreat to relax or host parties. I also want space for my own laboratory (the basement of one of the domes) and a large library. A home theater would also be nice.

Generally tons of space within which to build my ideal living arrangement. I'd also (ideally) like to build a sky shed on the property within which to house a telescope.

Ah.

You might want to try Oban, if you're into Highland and Islay scotches. It's a West Highland scotch, which means it's in-between the two localities in character.

I'm way too into history for a biochemist, but that might well explain the lawyer-ey side of me. Maybe it's human arrogance but the story of our species is far more interesting than any fiction.

I have a particular love for the revolutions of 1848, German political history, and pre- WWI diplomatic history.

>>3999511
You should try a good anjeo tequila. It's difficult to find one outside of Mexico, but it's a fantastic sipping drink.

I always preferred scotch to brandies, but I do love Spanish brandy.

The closest I'll come to a mixed drink these days is a bourbon buck:
Kentucky Bourbon or Tennessee Whiskey
ice
ginger ale
lemon or lime juice

It's shockingly good.
