Where's my 12,000 dollars?
Inflation is a bitch. :weep:
He didn't say what kind of dollars, try $12,000 Zimbabwe dollars.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Also, how hard is it for someone who doesn't know the language to get around, I'd imagine a lot harder than it is in Europe.

In Japan it is not hard at all.
Care to elaborate? Do the signs have English subtitles? How many people on the street have a conversational grasp of English?

Maker's Mark has their own cooperage operation, like you said.. but Wild Turkey gets their charred oak barrels from some manufacturer in Missourah.

I didn't say the barrels were from Kentucky :contract:  Just meant to say that only Kentucky distilleries (and possibly some in Tennessee) seem to have the barrel thing figured out.

I like George Dickel and Jack Daniels, but bourbon > Tennessee whiskies.  :)

There are some fabulous rye whiskies made in this country.

We have a sausage factory a country over that enjoys processing employing Mexicans.  You can work there and live in my basement as long as you agree to do my landscaping. :)

Me = charitable. :wib:

Let's hear some.  And don't you dare name any that are blended with neutral grain spirits and/or American whiskey :P

You tell him. Neil and BB are always trying to bring down the American legacy. <_<

In a way though BB sorta has that pioneer spirit down even to the indian persecutions.

Dear Jaron,

Ed Anger is a Yankee himself, thus unlikely to care about such things.
