hausdok Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Hi Larry, Thanks, that's always nice to hear, but it's you guys that make TIJ what it is. It's all about being willing to freely share information and help others. Without the cooperation of every one of the folks who come here, we'd just be a stagnant website. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!

ozofprev Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Mike: Ditto what Hoyt said!!! You did hurt my feelings, however, with your recent post about letting your hair down.

hausdok Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Gee Gary, I'm sorry about that. I assure you, it certainly wasn't intentional. After all, baldness runs in my family and whenever my younger brothers and I hook up the first five or ten minutes the conversation usually swings around who's lost the most hair since we saw each other last. My Dad? He's the comeover king. At least he used to be, until Donald Trump came along. I'd shave it all off instead of enduring the wait, except for the fact that when myself and my whole platoon did that before deploying to Desert Storm, my platoon leader said that the number of scars that that little bit of hair was hiding was scary, and I looked like something out of a horror movie without a hat on.

ozofprev Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 Desert Storm? You must be a kid - plenty of time left to lose that hair. I was a latter part of Viet Nam enlistee myself. Keep up the great work, Mike! And like the incredibly cool guy who started this thread says, "Happy New Year!" Originally posted by hausdok Gee Gary, I'm sorry about that.

Mike Believe it or not, that was the CENTERFOLD of the local magazine for which I write a weekly column! I did an piece on "retro-resolutions" (i.e. things I've accomplished rather than looking ahead) and they decided to make it the theme of their New Year's edition. Those who know me understand that I'm a shameless publicity whore. But hey, it pays the bills... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgbinspect Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Happy New Year to all from me as well. For all of you fellow devout Bourbon lovers, I recommend that you get your hands on a bottle of Eagle Rare. It's a VERY pleasant surprise. Right up there with the best. Well, back to my Wintertime diversion, snowboarding. Best wishes to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hausdok Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Ha, When I was in high school we'd fill up empty aspirin bottles with whatever was lying around and be wasted by 6th period. It could have been the worst rotgut in the world and we'd drink it. Finally got caught though. I got so completely wasted I threatened to kick a teacher in the groin. Ended up suspended for two weeks. That was the least of it. My old man took a much dimmer view. Ouch! I don't think there are any distilleries near me. Just some vintners and one or two gourmet soda-pop companies - one of them with the biggest variety of brands/flavors on the planet. Doesn't matter anyway, I quit drinking in January '73. OT - OF!!!

Bill Kibbel Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 "I've got about 15,000 barrels of Maker's Mark within about 75 miles of me". Thanks for that link Erby. I have added that tour to my list of things I must do. You, Bain and I can team up and inspect the collection of historic buildings at their distillery. "We used to drink CC, from a metal Army canteen, when I was in H.S. To this very day, the thought of it makes me want to hurl!" Me too, when I think about drinking anything that is "blended" with pure ethanol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Manor Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 HAHA - now I know your opinions on Canadian Club ( granted I'm partial to the stuff having grown up and spent most of my adult life around Hiram Walker & Sons ). If you guys want a real treat, provided you like Canadian rye whisky (and many bourbon men don't!), try a bottle of Forty Creek Barrel. It's among the finest small batch whiskys around.
