QuoteWhat will I do now that it's very, very hard to get Knob Creek?

I just had a big post-drive one thanks to Mr. antoniostrohs.  (thank you!! :))
You're more than welcome.Just a little Kentucky hospitality.Thank you for the new tunes.
I'll guess we'll just have to mail you some Knob Creek!

;D That is something I would not refuse.  

I'm also pretty good at writing to companies and asking them to carry things that I like, so I might try and convince my liquor store to order it in.  (I did it with PBR in a can last year, and now it's here.  Not that it was all my doing.  ha.)

Or fuck it, maybe I'll just have to run down to Kentucky every time the bottle is done.

I think I need to stop thinking about bourbon so much.

Ah yes.  Yes indeed.  

But, wouldn't you rather say, bathe in Knob Creek than Jim Beam?

I'd rather bathe in Jim Beam with a Knob Creek in my hand.  :)
(I doubt I'd want to drink anything that I'd bathed in.  ;))

Yes, but you would certainly kill a lot of germs with the alcohol.  :)  From the inside and the outside.  heh.

But just a few years ago, there was some scandal about selling celebrity bath water on ebay that was taken from hotel drains. Plus, there is always the typical guy quote of "she's so beautiful, I'd drink her bath water."

Then a famous actress too....you could become a hot commodity.

I have not seen any mention of scotch. Glenlivitt or Fiddich anyone?

Do guys really say that?  Wow.

Scotch is good.  But I do prefer bourbon I think.  Not that I'd turn down a drink.  
I enjoy the Glens.  My favourite is Laphroaig, though.

Doesn't the killing of germs usually involve a slight burning situation? I'm thinking a bath of Beam would produce some unusual howls from the tub.

....OH. I get it now. That's why you bathe from the inside out. Take out the nerves first, then purify the skin.

either way, bourbon is good for the soul.  8)

Someone sent this to me, had to share:


Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink, I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think, "It is better to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."
-- Babe Ruth

An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend time with his fools.
-- Ernest Hemingway

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case.
Coincidence? I think not.
- H.L. Mencken

When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. So, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!
George Bernard Shaw

Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.
- Benjamin Franklin

Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.
-- Dave Barry

Beer: helping ugly people have sex since 3000 b.c.

To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a "support group." Salvation in a can!

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the "Buffalo Theory" to his buddy, Norm...
"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.!

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of
alcohol, as we know, kill brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.
Look into Western skies, your answer is over there.

More from Norm!

5. SAM  : What'll you have, Norm?
NORM : Well I'm in a gambling mood, Sammy.  I'll have a glass of whatever comes out of that tap.
SAM  : Oh, Looks like beer, Norm.
NORM : Call me Mister Lucky.


6. WOODY: Hey Mr. Peterson, there's a cold one waiting for you.
NORM : I know, and if she calls, I'm not here.


18. SAM  : What's new, Norm?
NORM : Terrorists, Sam.  They've taken over my stomach and they're demanding beer.


25. SAM  : What's the story, Norm?
NORM : Boy meets beer.  Boy drinks beer.  Boy meets another beer.


27. SAM  : How's life treating you, Norm?
NORM : It's not, Sammy, but you can.


35. WOODY: How's it going, Mr. Peterson?
NORM : Poor.
WOODY: I'm sorry to hear that.
NORM : No, I mean pour.
