Thought I'd get this thread while most are getting ready for hibernation..

(If you come across any of those bourbons, buy it, and I'll buy it from you!)

Not sure what 'll bring this May... hopefully something that you haven't had before....

Maybe one of these (if I haven't finished it off by then!)?


I have an empty bottle of MAKERS MARK. Do you want empties?

Wasn't at work when I stopped by. I'll try again tomorrow.

Update: I was planning to stop by there on my way back from running an errand tonight, but, lo, there was a terrible accident directly in front of the liquor store parking lot, with 2 or 3 fire engines, ambulances, and about 5 state cops blocking the entrance. Traffic was backed up forever, so decided to try again tomorrow!

Second Update: My contact won't be in until next week. I'll check then.

Need to figure what NOT to drink, and bring along to the Dragon! (Pappy and Rip will not be attending!)

^Better hope you don't have an earthquake nearby. That would be expensive! Looks like you need to add a bar across the front (like on the sides) to reduce the chance of them falling out. That top shelf would really worry me!
Still haven't found out if my source will be able to get me a Pappy.

I'd just suck the juice out of the carpet!
