Is it too early for a drink?

Irish writer James Joyce once remarked "A man of genius makes no mistakes.  His errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery."  The idea is interesting and I hope no one gets in trouble for finding the time for a little Irish coffee at lunch today.

There is some thought though to the idea that people move in directions with purpose, with volition, as Joyce notes and that in doing so they may discover ways that don't work, but that doesn't make the process an error per se.

Personally, I think I like the idea that we might walk our way into potential trouble trying to test whether or not we have the mettle to overcome said situation.  In the meantime, it's almost lunch.  Perhaps I can find a place that serves both an Irish coffee and a decent reuben sandwich.

An Irish coffee is created combining equal parts of Irish whiskey, for which there can only be one, and Bailey's Irish Cream.  Combine those in a cup of coffee and stir and then top off with a bit of whipped cream.
