Due to an unexpected production issue we have experienced a slight delay in delivery but are back up and shipping. :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Someday when we're all drunk, I'll tell you our story of whoa!

Mostly it centers around a particular valve that is only available in England and was shipped via the Titanic!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::confused::confused:o_Oo_Oo_O

Sorry for any inconvenience. . . :(

Let's Drink!!!:thumbsup::cool:

NNNNNNUUUUKKKKKEEESSSSSSS!!!!!

And thanks for the update...could not put your hands on the correct valve in time, and fabrication would knock you off schedule too much, so you jumped in the Whiskey Warden Keg (which allows time travel), went back in time to order a valve to be placed on the titanic, left that time travel too fast because you had been drinking Forsaken Whiskey which also fuels the flux capacitors, ended up in grade school by accident, and learned what happened to the titanic - you felt a connection to the titanic immediately, could not explain because of the Forsaken Whiskey....

Then, one day riding your bike home from school, with a yet unexplained and ever-growing sense of magnetism to the titanic, you happened upon a Green Leprechaun. The Green Leprechaun told you that you had Forsaken Whiskey Haze, and that your visions were unclear because your older self drank too much of the fuel on your century-jumping time travel...

He led you to the corner of your garage, at the house you grew up in where there were panels of a greenish linen micarta substance and piles of oilcloth concealing something...dusting it off, the Green Leprechaun said, do you remember this? And the boy Jerry. said well, yeah, it's the...and with that, the Green Leprechaun booted young Jerry in the behind, sending him head first into the time traveling keg and a bottle of some different fuel was lobbed in just as the Keg was sealed with a micro-nuclear explosion....drink the bottle I gave youououououuou!!!!!! DO NOT DRINK THE FUELLLLLL!!!!!! was the last thing he heard before a great grinding noise filled the air and the earth...

As you were about to rattle apart from the noise and the heat, you looked at teh corked bottle with a gentelman strutting on a satiny blue label, and took a big swig...

Everything went black and the next thing you know, you are being congratulated on the most Epic Blade Show Entrance Ever, which also corroborated the Whiskey Warden design story and the Forsaken Line in general....it was 2018 and you were in the ATL at a sports bar you began to recognize....soon friends became recognizable and you looked down to see the Blue Gentleman clutched in your left hand, with a "why not?" that seemed to come out as naturally as your breath, you swigged deeply...

There, you had a blast, got your mind right on JW Blue, and went back to production a week later in Ohio....

Upon full ramp up, the shop blew the "valve of valves", Garth blew a gasket, threw a War Feather at your head, and then it all hit you that the only other valve in existence must still be in the titanic because surely no one had raided obscure valve and gasket systems in protective shielding and casings with super grease....

AND THEN, you asked Robert Ballard to borrow his Jason submersible to go and get said valve at the wreck site, found it, got it, and now it is back in the shop...

Copiuos,
You forgot about tha Green Leprechaun who always carries a Flask of JW who assisted in guiding Jerry along his perilous journey. Otherwise you nailed it.

I’m day drinking to no more valve problems and a Great Nuclear Warhead Unearthing.
Thanks for the update! Can’t wait to hear the story some day.

Thanks for the update Jerry! :thumbsup::D:thumbsup:

I agree with Matt...fabricate an INFI valve...you'll be able to depend on that one!

Don't know if I'd trust that English engineering :eek:...cause you know the saying:

"The English never designed an ugly valve, nor one that worked dependably!"

Or was that, automobile? o_O Nevermind, carry on! ;):p

Anyone who owned a British car back in the day should remember this one:

Q: Why do the British drink warm beer?
A: Because Lucas makes their refrigerators

From a former owner of an MG Midget, a Triumph TR250, and finally a Land Rover. And someday, a Lotus Elise.
Obviously I'm a little slow.

Daaaaang.....those Nukes are gonna be unreal....
Crab Shack is the place to be :)
 
Are we going to get heads up before the Nukes start hitting the credit cards?
I've submitted an inquiry to this as well for planning purposes which is helpful on the budgeted plans. Until then I am good with- when there is something to know, we will know. Not too worried about time, you have to be comatose not to be excited and impatient to actually hold this beauty in the hands. There is not a "too drunk to giv'a sht" level on the "Stupid Meter" that can erase the desire to rip open that box like freaking yesterday already.
This is one not to be rushed. I hope we all get our minds blown and for that, it will happen when it's meant to happen. It is still way ahead of where I think typical anticipation would've begun.
So, .... next week maybe? :D
