Were these reporters talking about the same injustice everybody else has been talking about? It's hard to believe!
Go ahead and read the article. It's like Russian propaganda.

I always thought entrapment was not legal. I see I must be mistaken.
Hey Leonard, where do I sign up for the free booze and drugs there where you live?
I could go for a bottle of Crown. Especially after reading that article.

I am actually putting myself at risk here in my part of Tennessee for not going for Old No 7.
Such blasphemy isn't tolerated here much and I need to make a retraction. Before I can't walk around on my own property because some local hillbilly will shoot my ass.

Wasn,t it Stalin who said "Give me a name and I'll make a crime for it." ?
Or something very much like that.
I've been watching too much History channel during my time of leisure.
What I truely don't understand is the writing on the wall is bright and bold but not very many people see it. Maybe because they never learned to read in school or is it mass hysteria like what happened when Orson Wells broadcast War of the Worlds ? Maybe both?

I don't appreciate fine whisky, that's for sure. When my parents were younger and had parties, I think the good stuff was 4 Roses?
I will say this; there was a time in my teen when I was influenced by others, not knowing anything for myself. I began drinking Cutty Sark and Dewar's because I'd been told it was a smart thing to do. But Scot's whisky is an acquired taste and I tried, but finally decided that it tasted like crap. Then I got the notion that real men drank Wild Turkey 100 proof. Eventually, I forgot the whole thing and decided that beer was a lot more like my speed.
To tell the truth, I don't hardly drink at all any more. I had a glass of wine about a week ago which was the first alcohol since Christmas. I'm just not much of a party animal any more.
I'l tell you one thing, I haven't been drunk since I was 25. What a friggin' waste! I can't handle barf, and hangovers and doing stupid shit. In fact, it must have been 23 or 24? By 25, I knew that I never wanted to get fucked up again. The whole 9 yards, I do not get it?
I used to pack a half pint of Peach Brandy, (maybe Blackberry) when hunting really bitter cold weather. It seemed to help, just a nip. Haven't even done that in probably 20 years?
I'm just no fun at all, any more.
Good hunting. El Bee

I have a couple of shots every night it helps with pain and allows me to fall asleep . Cold weather is a myth it does not help it actually makes you colder. very dangerous in real cold conditions. Good bourbon starts at Jim Beam and goes up from there. Four Roses is akin to .........

Four Roses is to whisky as adding EverClear to Whelch's Grape Juice and calling it wine.

Come on! I doubt either of you could pass the blind taste test. Otherwise, you just read the label:
"Oh, this looks good!"
When I was in high school, had a friend, Earl Jordon, a big guy, but one time we put on the gloves. His dad stepped in and stopped us after a while before we beat each others brains out. I sorta punch over my weight class and he didn't. Where was I? Oh yeah, he always was able to buy booze and I still looked twelve years old. He would buy some brand I never heard of, otherwise, but maybe it was his father's favorite? Wish I could think of it, but you connoisseurs out there would have never heard of it anyways. I think what I mean is; it doesn't matter? Taken with branch water, you can save a lot of money if you aren't that picky. But, what do I know?
Anyway, PS. Earl's been gone, must be 15 years now? I'd sure like to look up his wife, Betsy! From Georgia and I could listen to her talk all day long! She's somewhere in Florida, last I heard? If you find out, let me know!

I can take Beam for occasional sippin' over a few ice cubes, but my preferred wintertime hooch is Jamesons…...good stuff, moderately priced compared to my favorite, Red Breast 12 yo, primo right there!

Okay....that sounds like Scotch, to me? Never heard of Red Breast?
But, anyway. For those that like that Listerine stuff, (Scotch)
what do you think of the Johnny Walker Red? Or Johnny Walker Black? Or, how about Johnny Walker Blue? I see that stuff at Costco at Christmas time going for about $150 a bottle. Maybe not quite, but over a hundred bucks.
My old girlfriend Karen. She died 3 years ago, bless her heart. She had been going to AA meeting for 3 or 4 years and not drinking at all while I knew her. She drank Scotch but if she ever told me what kind, I don't remember? I stand by my conviction, every Scot's whisky I ever tasted had a fairly reminiscent flavor of high test mouthwash!
Okay, Okay! Better yet, like that old hunting camp joke:
This tastes like moose shit.... but, good!
Good hunting. El Bee

No......I can't stand scotch whiskey either. Irish whiskey is my preference, which Red Breast is one among many, just one of the better ones.

Yes, that’s the joke
Sorry Vic, I was wrong and now that I think about it, I’ve heard of Jameson’s before, should have known it was Irish. If it was multiple choice, I would have got it right!

Excuse this comment, but YUCK!
Pureed Corned Beef in a blender? I take it you must have an industrial strength & bulletproof blender?
Good hunting. El Bee
edit: also, in leu of Irish whisky on St Patricks Day, I favor the Corned Beef and Cabbage. AND A SHAMROCK SHAKE!
edit: also, if you ask at the window, you can sometimes get a Shamrock Shake several days past St Patrick's Day!

Okay, there are many things on the mcDonald's menu that are decent, like the Sausage McMuffin and the Quarter Pounder and some that I don't care for. I wouldn't eat a "fish filet" if you paid me!
Anyway, sounds like you don't know what a Shamrock Shake is? It's an Ice cream type of shake with a mint and vanilla flavor. I happen to like it as an annual treat on St Patrick's Day. It's only available around that timeframe. But, when the standard stuff, Strawberry, vanilla or Chocolate get's routine, a Mint flavored shake tastes pretty good. You will like it.

I duno, maybe I'm misguided, (don't answer that!) but I quit Jack In The Box that time they were caught "accidentally" selling kangaroo meat hamburgers. I tend to hold a grudge quite a while . This was way before the Internet so it probably doesn't exist anymore, and I sold my tractor anyway.

I agree with Victor on the Jamesons, always have a decanter full. However, for bourbon you can't go wrong with Basil Hayden's, which is always on the bar.
