And heeeeere we go.

Tsukikage Ran, beautiful maiden, connoisseur of fine sake, aficionado of
elephants, and by chance, wandering samurai, sat back against a tree,
enjoying the shade provided by its leafy canopy. There wasn't a cloud in the
sky, and the temperature was a touch on the warm side. But between her
refuge and a light breeze, everything felt just right. That was to say, with
the jug of sake in her hand, it felt right. To prove it fact rather than
opinion, she took another sip. A sip in the sense she only gulped twice
before bringing the nearly empty jug down and wiping her sleeve across her
lips.

My dictionary lists it as "afficionado."

Both spellings apparently exist, with slightly different meanings; the 
meaning of the spelling used is appropriate, though one meaning I find 
for the suggested correction would also not be inappropriate.

I feel I should warn you I'm slightly mad.

Warning: Simply because I argue an issue does not mean I agree with any 
side of it.

A government exists to serve its citizens, not to control them.
