It's hugely popular in Argentina with Coke. I bought a bottle two years ago and haven't finished it.

i used to go to a place where fernet would often show up as an aperitif. for some reason i would always say "mmmhm - that's the stuff" after tasting it

Fernet is one of those licorice/medicinal/anise-esque herbal spirits that I just slot along with absinthe adjacent stuff like pernod, pastis, herbsaint, et al., imo basically a more complex, refined Jägermeister. I don't find anything particularly pleasant about it as a sipper, save that it almost compels you to take your time if you don't want to barf. (See also: straight chartreuse and the like).

how i miss those bygone nights of wild driving in the backroads, mixtape at full blast and the windows down, gently nibbling at a fernet

If you swap my usual plain black t-shirt for the one I got during bike week in daytona beach and my nerd glasses for the sunglasses my 8 year old thought were cool at the same trashy souvenir store I look pretty much ready to call covid a hoax and storm the capitol:

These WDYLL threads are mildly disturbing, like when you see pictures of radio DJs. You all just shouldn't have faces.
So I'm going to willfully mistranslate WDYLL and say...

Second time out kayaking this summer.
https://phildellio.tripod.com/kayak.JPG
It's something St. Marys started two summers ago: you can book one of six kayaks through the library for a couple of hours, no charge. I'd do it every day in July and August if they let you, but two bookings per week is the limit.
Very relaxing, good way to clear your head. You can go north on the Thames River towards Mitchell, or east along (Mike) Trout Creek. I sometimes like to pretend I'm in Deliverance: I scan the shore hoping to see the kid with the banjo, but I also worry about those two bad guys hiding in the woods.
