    There was an explosion at the local distillery.

    I wasn't surprised...it was a whisky business.

    Evidence is almost nonexistent, they figure it could have been spirits.

    I heard that it wasn't just a single but, a mult-e-tude of explosions; the whole dram thing blew up for pete sakes. It was neat the way the whisky came down with the rain to quaich the thirst of the locals.
    Simon Fraser fought as MacShimidh, a Highland chief… wrapped and belted in a plaid over the top of his linen shirt, like his ordinary kinsmen. He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.
