Just realized something......

TBH, I was surprised at how little they make per hour.

I wish I owned a bar where they normally work.

Oh, you unfortunate Scotch drinkers. Fortunately, for us more pedestrian types, Shiner Bock beer is brewed in Shiner, Texas. It doesn't even have to cross state lines to get here. And right now, they're brewing their wonderful, seasonal, Octoberfest Marzen-style beer. I'm going to panic-buy another 12-pack of Marzen before they sell out. Bottoms up!

Maybe Scotch being made in Scotland is just a rumor. After all, Scotch Tape isn't made there is it?

Maybe you will break that bad habit and move on to real whisky.

I believe I saw somewhere that the head of the union made an annual salary of over $750,000. Maybe he should spread some of that around. Inflation has hit most of us in a bad way. I would like my military pension to go up by 70% in 5 years but I'm not holding my breath.

Plus 180k or so from his "job", as noted earlier. The Genovises or, depending on who you ask, the Gambinos are involved as well.

So that goon wants to hurt us? Buy American.

Didn't the Boy Scouts teach you to be prepared?

You should have a bunch of these on hand...

How is that stuff?

Anthony Scotto ruled the Brooklyn waterfront for the Gambino family bitd. He went to jail, now owns a restaurant, and his daughter is an anchor for CH5 in NY.
Scotto’s wife is the daughter of mobster hitman crime boss Albert Anastasia who founded Murder Inc. Just wholesome Americans.

Good luck with that .

With everything happening around the world, they picked a really bad time for this.... even for themselves. We need a plan and some players.

You ain't that far from Kentucky and Tennessee you know. May be time to sip something a little different. Domestic ain't bad.

 

[johngalt]

Maybe a trip is in your future?

This seems to get some good reviews. Don't know about the retailer, just used it for the pic.

I remember enough about making "Grappa" that all I need is a still large enough to cover a 4 burner stove, an "aged cask" and a hydrometer to measure proof. Unfortunately, like my "Nonno" used to say as we put towels over the basement windows: "Government don't want you to be happy," over a quart is a felony. As a "byproduct" of making 200 gallons of dark red, 30 gallons of Grappa lasted a year. Planning ahead, what a concept. Joe

GOD..I LOVE THOSE MEMORIES

Time to try the scotch made here and in Japan.

Giving the Kennedys a cut on every bottle of scotch alone would be enough to make me go elsewhere

I read that years ago, don't know if still true, but it would not surprise me

It may No Longer be True
But I am Positive during Prohibition
My Scotland born Grandfather bought enough Bootleg Scotch in MA
to Finance Every Kennedy Campaign for years to come

Rest easy, the grinch, err goon, has relented until Jan. Maybe he got read the riot act by those in charge.

 

[pmanton]

Kerosene should be available and it certainly would taste better than Scotch.

Rest easy gentleman...just heard the strike has been postponed until January while negotiations continue.
Might be a good time to stock up though!
