You probably don’t know this, but there’s a pretty popular drink called Jack Daniel’s Whiskey. It’s a semi-famous drink distilled in Lynchburg, Tennessee (population: 361) and it’s been around since 1866. You probably don’t know that it might be one of America’s most-famous [...]

The flight to the so-called safety of the dollar has resulted in a deflationary pullback in prices across the board…but it is probably just the prelude to a killer wave of hyperinflation. Jim Kunstler works wonders with metaphors below and makes it all clear.

Vancouver Island black bears have been looking forward to the procession of salmon all year and are now enjoying their fish feast as they fatten up for hibernation.
Bridges, vehicles and hatcheries are safer places to view bears in action. They will often hunt at obstacles in the river where fish are forces into shallow water or need to jump in order to get by.

The 3.02 patch has caused quite some sad faces. This is usually the case with the major patches for WoW, and it's usually taken care of after a few weeks or so. Can't say that I would approve of that treatment, and amongst the pissed off is someone over at Loot Ninja. Since I...

Airport security, in case you haven’t been paying attention, is completely absurd. The goals are utterly reactive, always trying to fight yesterday’s threat, and the methods for checking said threats are spotty at best. So far as I know (and TSA-wise, I’m a bit out of the loop) the newest wrinkle is still the liquids thing, due to the attempted terrorist threat in London just over two year

Amy Winehouse is becoming better known for her non-appearances rather than her performances.
But this weekend she managed to make it the Bestival festival in the Isle of Wight.
She was on stage on Saturday evening, as planned, although organisers had feared she might pull out and were ready with a back-up plan.
It had also been reported the troubled singer, who was headlining the event,
Da alcune estate, in quel di Genova, nei bar va abbastanza di moda il caffè shakerato, probabilmente anche nelle altre città ma per lo meno qui è abbastanza usuale vedere le persone farselo preparare anche dopo pranzo e nel pomeriggio; normalmente viene aggiunto anche una base alcolico che spesso è un liquore di vaniglia, poi mi è capitato di vedere qualche persona prendersi un caffè un po'

When Flying Dog Brewery moved its production east one of the questions was where would Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey get its wash? The micro-distillery was located next door to Flying Dog, making it easy to pipe over the "beer" that would be distilled to make an impressive whiskey.Enter another Colorado microbrewery: Oskar Blues Brewery. Oskar Blues will provide about 100 barrels of wash (3100 gall
Puede parecer extraño que una canción tradicional del folclore irlandés se convierta en uno de los mejores temas de la historia del rock y también en uno de los más versioneados. Pero así sucedió con "Whiskey In The Jar". Personalmente la que más me emociona es la de Thin Lizzy, y es sobre la que escribiré estas líneas.En 1969 Phil Lynott, Eric Bell, Eric Wrixon y Brian Downey fundaron

I normally don't get to bed until about midnight. Of late I toss and turn throughout the night. I've been able to see most hours on my clock during the night from waking up. To be honest... a good bit of waking has been from some well placed kicks from a tiny foot.Last night however, I went down hard. No clue why. For the first time in quite a long time, I slept until my alarm. This is interesting
Based on the dismal two-term bargain basement presidency of George W, we can make this blanket statement: tipplers make better presidents than teetotalers as anyone up to this point, including notorious booze-hound Dick Nixon, has been a better president. Dubya, who was a lot more fun back when his nose was more full of the white stuff than a face-planting Picabo Street or when he indulged in the occasional brew, hasn't enjoyed a drop in nearly a decade (he was photographed at a 2007 summit in Germany, swilling a piss-poor non alcoholic 'near beer', a nearly punishable offense in that country, not to mention a product brewed by mediocre foreign rival Heineken that luckily didn't result in an international incident)The current crop of Oval Office aspirants, though, are no strangers to the o
For the average boozehound, dredging themselves out of bed and scraping a toothbrush across their hairy tongue, is part of the pre-work grooming regimen (after dousing less than fragrant loafers with the remainder of a bottle of cologne).The taste of toothpaste though, is second only to a whiff of the previous night's poisons when it comes to potentially launching that morning bagel into an anti-gravity, toilet-bound trajectory. So, it's a wonder that at Toothpasteworld.com, speaking of gravity, you can procure all sorts of boozy flavors that would turn your stomach worse than a NASA gyroscope. Michigan dentist and self-professed 'toothpaste collector' Val Kolpakov features American-produced bourbon, whiskey, wine, and for the high-rolling set, champagne flavors.Why these exist is anyone'

I'll admit that there are very few mom blogs that I can identify with on a regular basis. I appreciate them, and I have mentioned a few of them here before, such as Soapbox Mom or A Week In The Life of A Redhead.Yesterday, I was scanning through the most recent posts at Dads.Alltop.com, and I saw one from BusyDad that I wanted to read. It was an entertaining post as usual, but he also included a link at the bottom to "the baddest mommy blogger in the land, Mr. Lady of Whiskey In My Sippy Cup." How could I resist clicking on this link? I couldn't, and I'm glad I didn't.BusyDad was right - Mr. Lady is one of a kind. Her most recent post called Makin' Babies is hilarious. She is genuine, authentic and honest about her experiences, and I really appreciate her sense of humor. I don't kno
The Italian mafia is targeting the rapidly growing fake antique whisky market in Scotland by selling counterfeit bottles for thousands of pounds online.
Though the industry has tried to clamp down on bogus bottles being sold in auction houses, The Scotsman quotes experts as saying that the trade has now moved to the Internet and describe it as a "faker's paradise".

There are several variations of whiskey as well. Scottish whiskey, Jack Daniels, and Wild Turkey are among the most popular. Scottish whiskey is very popular in different parts of the world, while Jack Daniels is the preferred brand of whiskey in the United States. Jack is served at many bars and restaurants, and provides a great mixed drink if you pair it with Coke.Read more All You Need To Know

Robert Lee Burnside 1926. november 21-én született Mississippi államban, Harmontown-ban, azaz pont ma van a születésnapja. Bár egész életében muzsikált (gitározott, énelkelt és dalokat szerzett) első lemezének kiadására csak 40 éves korában került sor, és hivatásos zenész is csak nagyon későn, 1991-ben lett. Innentől kezdve viszont egészen 1999-ig rengeteget koncertezett és igen termékeny volt a lemezek kiadása terén is.L. R. Burnside 2005. szeptemberében hunyt el.E lemezét egy New York-i független zenekarral, a magának ironikusan Jon Spencer Blues Explosion nevet adó punk-rock bandával készítette. Egészen egyéni, nagyon modern, szokatlan és mégis blues.A számok:1. Goin' Down South 2. Boogie Chillen3. Poor Boy 4. 2 Brothers 5. Snake Drive 6. Shake 'Em On Down 7. The Criminal Inside Me 8. Walkin' Blues 9. Tojo Told Hitler 10. Have You Ever Been Lonely?Tömörítés/Bitrate: 92 kb/sLetöltés/Download:[ Gigasize ][ Uplo
A 54-year-old woman was hit by a Union Pacific freight train while trying to wave it down after drinking a bottle of whiskey. The accident happened south of Marysville, and the woman, Deborah Thompson, is currently recovering in the hospital from a fractured thigh bone and some head injuries.
According to authorities the woman said that after she drank the bottle of whiskey, she went on to the train tracks to try and wave the freight train to a halt. But she instead was hit by the train and flew about 20 to 30 yards away. When asked why, the woman said that she was just trying to be silly.
When you go to the bar in Thailand, you don't have much to choose from for drinks: 1) Beer--having an alcohol content of 5-8%; or 2) Whiskey. Further, whiskey is usually purchased by the bottle. In a night, one's bound to go through a couple of bottles. Now, I wasn't much of a (whiskey) drinker before I came to Thailand, and I still haven't reached the status of a typical University of Wisconsin-Madison student. Nonetheless, I've matured--is that the right word?!?!?--in my drinking abilities. Today just happens to be Halloween, and I know that Madison will be partying tonight (just like the previous 6 nights). But I think the city would be better off if it had a Whiskey-Drinking-Abraham-Lincoln roaming the streets . . .

Whiskey dick is a term for two different horrific afflictions that are all together too common among men, both old and young alike. Whiskey dick is an equal opportunity syndrome, striking anyone who has drank too much brown, hard liquor and has aspirations of letting loose some cock fuel.
More often than not, this takes place when you bring a young slam pig home from the bar after a long night of sucking down Jack Daniels, or Yukon Gold. That fire water makes you horny enough to stick it in an electric pencil sharpener, and your body is experiencing a desire to get yourself a face full of puss the likes of which cannot be properly explained in sobriety.
But, your man piston is nothing more than a flaccid, limp man sprout. No matter what you do, or how long she licks your balls, it won't get up. Your mind is thinking that you should have a woody large enough to hang a flag from, but it just isn't happening. The cure for this is simple- don't drink so much next time, moron.

After a night of camping along the Yakima River, my daughter and I got up early, broke camp and headed to Ellensburg, Washington to meet up with the Northwest Backroad Drivers group to explore the Whiskey Dick Wildlife Area just east of Ellensburg.
After a stop for a quad iced americano and to top off the gas tank, we pulled into the Bar 14 Restaurant for the morning meet up. We were running a little late by time we arrived. Already eating breakfast were Rich (driving a Jeep Grand Cherokee), Jan and their 4 year old granddaughter Tara and Jerry our tour leader for the weekend (driving his Ford Bronco II).

The European Union Parliament reached a compromise on Monday that may result in a truce in the vodka war, but few are happy about it.The politicians from the so-called vodka belt of Poland, Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and Russia wanted to get legislation passed that would require vodka to be made only from grains and potatoes. Other products, amounting to about 30 percent of the vodka made in the EU, using everything from grapes to molasses in fermentation would be labeled as "white spirits." However, the traditionalists lost out and had to settle for a compromise that says vodka made from things other than grains and potatoes will now say "Vodka made from XXXXX" on the label.The issue might not be totally closed. The United States has said it will take the issue to the World Trade Organization. Some vodkas made in this country use sugar came.Meanwhile, Scotland's distillers appear happy with tighter rules on the production and labeling of whiskey. The regulations will
Some people like their whiskey with a splash of water. In Tennessee the question is whether a prolonged drought will cause the Jack Daniel's Distillery to curtail production.The Lynchburg, Tenn., distiller gets its water from Cave Spring on its property. The water has a low iron content, which the distillery says is a key part of the Jack Daniel's process. The flow from Cave Spring is down by more than a third of its normal rate.The distillery, other businesses, farmers and homeowners who like green lawns are hoping that rainfall in Tennessee and elsewhere in the southeast returns to normal. Jack Daniel's has not cut back on production at this point, but is conserving water as part of its plans for dealing with the drought.
Here's some helpful information to all of you liquor drinkers out there, whiskey may have some anti-cancer characteristics. Scientist have long regarded red wine as a cancer fighting source because of its antioxidant properties but scientists have now discovered that whiskey may have the same effect. The best place to find cancer fighting agents when drinking whiskey is with single malt whiskies and this is because of their high content of ellagic acid. Ellagic acid fights the breakdown of cells in the human body; when cells break down your body raises the chances of creating new, bad cells which can be cancerous. This comes as good news to many but don't think that you can get hammered on whiskies and still be benefiting your body. Moderation is key, so don't over indulge or you could be doing more harm then good.
Para promover o primeiro whiskey dietético e para transmitir a imagem de que um corpo em forma aumenta uma atracção do próximo, bolos de casamento foram colocados nas montras de pastelarias. Nestes bolos a noiva não aparecia e o noivo era um boneco com excesso de peso. Ao lado estava a mensagem:"Sem dieta, sem parceiro."In order to promote the first diet whiskey and to drive home the message that a fit body increases one´s attraction, wedding cakes were displayed at popular cake shops.But the groom figurine was overweight and the bride was missing, along was the message:"No diet, no mate."
More snow on the ground and a tree across the driveway this morning when I crawled out of bed to say goodbye and Merry Humbug to Ben before he flew to Connecticut for X-mas. Back in bed to cuddle with the girls until they ask for food, then downstairs to get the fire built and up to a rip-roarin' 1200 degrees to take the edge off our winter palace. No bookstore due to fallen tree so I enjoy a warm relaxed day by the fire, get a few things done around the house that have been neglected (specifically not including the dishes), read Great Wolf and the Good Woodsman to Lyli and Scarleht, who listen attentively and talk about feeding the animals. I choke up near the end of the book, flashbacks from my own childhood elliciting a hint of tear. This is my newly found malady since becoming a parent, I get moist at the most sentimental romantic bullshit imaginable. Crap. Don't tell any prospective ladies...They sit on the sofa, unaware of my eavesdropping. Lyli holds her flower hat (the kind w
That winery tour guide must have lied to me.
