Icy Day, Cabin Fever Remedy

This is how I'm fighting going completely insane being stuck inside with all this crappy, Yankee weather we're having. Sipping good whiskey working on jigs while listening to Nirvana, Nice Inch Nails, and Godsmack ain't a bad remedy for whatever ails you (me). How do y'all get by?

Hmm. I have never tried this Buffalo Trace. I have been told that generally whiskeys/whiskies that begin with the letter "b" are fine drinks.

Wow. I wouldn't be able to stay in my skin! Two to three cups (which are way bigger than cups and I'm not sure why they are even called cups since they are not really cups at all in the measurement sense) are my limit.

If you gotta go do it, you did good. Ain't no shame in doing your job my friend, and it seems that you know how to reward yourself!

Maker's is the drink that led me to the Knob Creek, and honestly, I don't know which I like best. The Knob is 100 proof and, in my opinion, just as smooth as Maker's. I definitely appreciate the added heat on these chilly days. Cigars I can't touch. The Boss (aka sweetheart, wife, lover-girl) does not like (allow, permit, tolerate) me to have anything along those lines since I laid the tobacco down.

Never heard that before but it is made in the same place as Blantons (which I don't like) BT is really good and smooth. I call it the gentleman jack of Kentucky bourbon lol.

Man I'm jealous. I HAD to work today, took almost an hour to drive from StarkVegas to louisville. Then on to Poplarville Ms. Where they think they freezing if it gets below 40*. Just made it home though and I'm pouring something tall and strong. Apparently I have some catching up to do.

Wife just bought me a bottle of Blanton's. I haven't opened it yet, so I ain't got no opinion on the taste. I can't wait to try it though.

I have never heard of this, but I am certainly not opposed to trying something that I ain't never heard of.

Tried it once at a dinner. Less than a shot worth was 15 bucks. A lawyer freind that was with us suggested it. Took the first sip and was like what a waste. Really didn't have much taste and had a bit of vanilla note. I finished it but won't try it again.

Man that is steep. JW Blue is within my range if I get less than a shot for $15. I hope the wife got a deal on this bottle. Maybe she stole it. You are not building up my anticipation for cracking the seal on this thing. I am a lawyer though, so maybe I will be able to side with your friend that suggested it to you.

I used to love lemonade, but I had to give it up. Sugar was too tough for me in something that I could drink by the gallons. I have to sip my sugar now.

Could be ok. I have noticed when I get this stuff out of state it always sucks at the hi dollar places. Last time I had makers was at st. Elmos in Indianapolis and it was awful. Plus they charge way too much too.

Of course when you trying to work out a high dollar contract I'll drink anything lol.

The bottle is opened and it ain't too shabby. Of course I ain't really hard to please. I may have to drink the first half just to be able to finish the second half! I don't mind.
