Somebody had to start this thread. Might as well be me.

I'm on the George Dickel Old No. 8 train right now.

Old No. 8, for those of you not in the GD loop, is harder to get these days. George Dickel actually went out of business for a while, which means that some years are missing from production. To keep the Old No. 8 supplies honestly (actually aged 8 years), they've reduced distribution of that spirit. Some of the No. 8 that you get might actually be aged 10 years or so. Whatever the age, however, it's limited to certain states for a while.

For some reason (higher production rates?), I was told during a tour of the GD facilities that the No. 12 supplies are just fine.
 
Dang Easterner! It's only 3 oclock where I'm at and I'm still at work! Teasing me with talk of drinking!!!
 
5:18 and headed into a holiday weekend here, buddy. Hurry up and catch up! :D
 
drinking Hot chocolate. I have to be at work at 2400 eastern. Hope this happens before then.
 
What are we waiting for????? Santa Claus????? the Easter Bunny????? the tooth fairy?????????????



Just got home and tapped into the Rockies!!!!:thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Started with a Brooklyn Lager followed by half a bottle of some really good South African chardonnay. Switching to Cognac or Knob Creek soon.
 
Now? Coffee. Later? Shiraz. Nothing impressive about this wine, but it will be good for warming me up on this crappy rainy night. Holiday traffic stinks. LOL :)

Hey, Jaxx:

Don't they have the unattended machines in your post office? Most of the branches around here have them. Weigh it in, put in the zip code, select service (including Priority or Express) and add insurance, Delv. Conf. or other extras. Pay by debit or credit card... it spits out a paid label. Drop it in a box. Easy and no crowds at 11p. :thumbup:

Drinking?? Nothing, yet. I'm gonna wait for this to go down then go back out to prep for holiday travel. I will be coming home with a new bottle of scotch to celebrate (or mourn) my email "Go! Go! Go!" speed. :D
