We hope you take the time to read the page, for our sake and yours. They're all dead. This who's who of bad guys all bit the dust at the hands of their worst enemies, the good guys, because of their own stupidity. In an effort to prevent any other would-be conquerors from being hoisted on their respective petards, the Evil Overlord List has been set up to warn against some of the more glaring errors committed in the past. This is handy information for anyone looking to take over the planet or wanting to produce the next Bond flick.

Single malts are in. Our preference is for Laphroaig but aggressive flavors of Scotland's distinctive single malt whiskies challenge the palate. The Malt Whisky File leads us through single malt lore, explaining why a barrel of Scottish whisky is unique even within its own distillery and how aficionados can actually appreciate a liquor whose perfume conjures visions of cowpat. We learn how casks influence definitively the taste of whiskey, bourbon, wine, sherry, brandy, and rum. The page on aging reveals what happens to the angel's share and why a cask's location changes the nature of its contents.
