We just got done with a virtual whiskey tasting. Just 3 of us but a lot of fun. Dennis who is a avid spirits collector, gave us 4 different 1oz. samples. All were really good from about $32-$75 dollars and from around 85 proof to 130.2 proof. We tried A Buffalo Trace Old Miss. barrel pick, Virgin Bourbon 7 year, Old Ezra 7 year, and a Balcones Blue corn Cask strength. The Old Ezra was my favorite. It is available locally and I might have to score a bottle or two.
Pics.
That Texas Blue Corn is some crazy stuff.

On number 2 of a Beam Black Old Fashioned. Also fiddling with a somewhat recently acquired Ruger Bisley 32 H&R (1987 piece MIB) with my Meister cast bullets arriving today. Tomorrow we will meet at the bench.

So far today this is feeling like an enhanced coffee beverage kinda day. The rain is not far off and still in the low 50s.

I'm single and no wife to deal with and still need that much whiskey just to deal with myself. lol

Just doing what I do
I hit the beer store today to try to keep my stock up. They had plenty of CEG so no signs of any shortage.
When I paid and they tried to hand me the credit card slip to sign, I just smiled and said “You can scribble on that all you want, I’m not touching that pen.”
The owner just looked at me and after a second said “Fair enough!”
The same thing happened last week at the pharmacy drive thru. They tried to hand me a clipboard with a receipt on it to sign and I said no way. You, of anyplace, should know that is a dangerous practice. I gave them **** about it and when I stopped there today to pick up my wife’s prescriptions I noted that they are no longer doing it.
Sometimes, you just have to wake people up and say no.

On a lighter note and trying to get off the problem at hand. Not that it is something that has to be over looked just bored here at home and been drinking more than I should but I been painting on the kids plane and thought Ddaddy you might like to see the progress.
