That’s funny that you mention pisco sour, I just got back from Peru days ago! I could have brought you some! Since I was there for July 28th (Peruvian independence day) they had a fountain in front of the presidential palace flowing with pisco, it was a sight to see, that many peruvians with sippy cups drinking pisco.
Ahh, Peru.

Funny. Thanks for the post.
These are funny, but why would anyone EVER wonder about what a cat tastes like. Your mind works in ways I don’t understand.
Well, that probably goes back to my days in Air Force survival training as a student and later as an instructor, where the joke was that all animal meat you could obtain in the wilderness “tasted like chicken.” It is a contextual joke for that setting, which perhaps I should have explained! (I have not seriously contemplated eating a cat to see what it tasted like, even though I am definitely not a cat-fan other than a KSU Wildcat fan!)
Just saw this post, whew, am I behind. Anyway, thanks for thinking of me. You were part of our podcast this morning, BitbyBit.
