Sean Kenyon's discussion of whisky -- no "e," please -- prompted this story from Harvey:

On a plane recently, a passenger asked the flight attendant, "What kinds of whiskey do you have?" She proceeded to list a few, when he interrupted, in a whiney, patronizing tone: "That's Scotch!" And she calmly responded with a smile, "Yes, Scotch whisky,"yt

If she wasn't working, I'd have bought her a whisky.
