I just had my “one beer a year” last week. Something with a mango flavor to it. And it totally sucked. Should have had a regular old Budweiser. Those never disappoint. I don’t think I tasted whiskey in a number of years. Many years.
Just don’t get the big deal with alcohol. To which his own.

Not enough .. Both BIL under hospice care... last 5 years or so it's all the time.. Dad , last grand parent , son in law .. just for starters persona I'm ready to go back.to war . At least I know why ...
Criminy...I was at the grocery store in the produce section a couple hours ago.
There were "organic" blueberries for $3 a half pint, and "regular" (from the same grower!!) for $4 a full pint.
A super hot looking gal in her late 20s or early 30s, in tight stretchy ski pants, says to me "why did you get those $4 ones instead of the $3 ones? I try to explain that the $3 are actually 1.5 times the cost of the $4 ones by volume, and am told "must be some math from the old days...how do you get that a pack for $4 is cheaper than a pack for $3?"
(For cripes sake I'm only 58...WTF..."old days"? )
Anyway... I'm into my third Blantons...
You can no more tell someone how to do something you've never done, than you can come back from somewhere you've never been...
If I was still drinking it might be a double shot of Jack Danials Single Barrel, my all time favorite distilled spirit. But I've had enough. I can't just drink like normal people. I have to have one shot, then another, and another. Then I get in the car and drive around like I have good sense. Nope I just can't handle it. I've been back to the meetings now about 3 weeks and my head is feeling good. If you can handle it and enjoy it, more power to you. I'm no prohibitionist. I just know that I can't handle it anymore, IF I EVER COULD.There's more to life than that for me. I can't afford the DUI B.S.

What goes up must come down, what goes around comes around, there's no free lunch. Trump's comin' back, get over it!
