who'd drink that thing in a week or two by himself. If he keeps it up he's going to be looking for some spare organs.

I've seen it going for $75-$80 per bottle...so $33 a bottle is a great price, if you can afford to buy in bulk.

The funniest part is this:

If you can't make it to Lynchburg, Tenn., for a private tasting to pick out the exact barrel that fits your palate, you can send them a description of your favorite whiskey and they will find the barrel that is perfect for you. Thing is, if you have $8500 for a barrel of whiskey you also have the resources to manage a trip for two to Lynchburg.

Because it's not like a 15-year-old kid can't subtract 25 from 2014.

Out of curiosity, I typed in a birthdate that would be drinking age in Japan but not in the US (20), and I could access the site.

if I asked her for some help moving that into the living room.

I wish Costco in CT could start selling booze. They always had great wine deals.

We go through Springfield a few times a year. I can see the occasional stop over in my future.
