Wall Street Whisky

 

I haven't had much time to post the past few days and won't for a few days still (I'm spending the week exploring the Panama Canal).  But perhaps in busy periods like this I'll start a tradition of posting a humorous photo with little commentary.  (Speaking of which, I wish I had taken a picture of diners at the Coca-Cola Cafe here in Panama City last night -- almost everyone was drinking Pepsi.)

As for the photo above, I took it while visiting a string of villages outside the Vietnamese town of Hoi An in July 2007.  This woman thought I might be interested in some Wall Street Whisky.  I surely wasn't, especially in such midday heat.  But looking at the photo now I think she'd do a booming business if her shop was located in lower Manhattan rather than rural Vietnam.  Wall Street could no doubt use a sip these days.
