Laphroaig has a really good promotion that when you buy a bottle of their tasty scotch, you are given a 1-foot-square plot of land on their section of Islay. They send you a deed to the land and even promise that you get a free dram of scotch in payment for their use of the land. You can claim your payment in person at their distillery.
How tempting is that?
Dude, I won’t be in today. Huh? No, I’m going to Scotland. Um, to pick up my deed. Well, no. Um, it’s a, well, square foot. No, of Scotland. Wait, no. Um. ... you don’t ... never mind.
Considering the amount of Genessee beer I drank back in NY before I quit, they should have named a wing of the brewery after me.
Then you’d technically be a “Laird” right?
