Tommy opposes the death penalty, it's too humane.
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Wait a minute, it's not that simple. Tommy is opposed to the death penalty. Not because our stellar judicial system usually convicts the wrong person! No, because it's too humane. If someone commits a heinous crime and is found to be guilty by a jury of his peers, I say lock them up in a four by eight cell underground in a federal maximum security prison condemning them to eat prison food for the rest of their life and banning them from ever having another dram of single malt whisky. If that were me , I would be on my hands and knees begging for Russian justice, i.e., a single 45 caliber slug to the back of my skull. And speaking of the death penalty being too humane, don't forget the dead man walking gets to request a last meal. I would forgo the traditional four Burger King Whoppers with cheese, super sized fries and chocolate shake, so commonly requested , for an American dram ( nine fingers) of Macallan 1953. Yup, the year Tommy was born. I know there is still some left having visited Mecca and seeing a bottle in the Quaich Bar in the famous Craigellachie Hotel in the Speyside region of the Highlands of Scotland. Bottled at 49 years old, it has a garnet-to-ruby color. Iron and passion fruit aroma, alcohol soaked fruit cake, cherries and almond taste and a warm, spicy toasted oak finsih. Now that s a dram to die for!!! Slainte, Tommy Maaltman
