Local packy was out of Southern Tier 2X IPA, so I got this instead:

Probably another month at least for the daffodils to show their faces around these parts.

Most beaches on the Cape ban alcohol and glass containers. So I figure I'm only breaking one law by bringing cans of beer to the beach. Plus they're safer than bottles, and I hate to leave broken...

An old Italian man is in the hospital, nearing the end of his days. His daughter visits him and he says "I only want one thing; I want one of your mother's cannolis before I die. Can you bring me a...

He seems to be doing that a lot lately.

After two weeks of drinking this

You're welcome.

My Irish is bad.

Not to mention the Al Jazeera app for mobile devices.

Went to the movies with the mrs. last night. Gonna be doing homework tonight ahead of court appearances tomorrow morning.

I'm on it.

Interesting. Hard to believe it would be a higher award than a Bronze Star.

I've been eyeballing Bulleit at the local liquor store for many months now. I was actually going to buy a bottle once and they were out. Maybe I'll try that one next.

I agree re: Woodford. I...

Or an Irish whisky. :)

My last bottle of bourbon was Woodford Reserve; a giant bottle I got as a gift. As fine a bourbon as I've tried.

Three inches of fresh snow overnight. Very pretty.

Maker's Mark is diluting their whisky to keep up with demand:

Dear Maker's Mark® Ambassador,
Lately we've been hearing from many of you that you've been having difficulty finding Maker's Mark in...

There's definitely a sense of barely controlled chaos about Mexico that I like. I've done scuba diving, zip lining, riding ATVs in the jungle (once with a tequila tasting in the middle of the...

Congrats, steve and the perfessor!

I would consider the skydiving, but the parasailing looks kind of lame to me. You're just being dragged around by a boat with no real ability to control what's going on until you come down for...

Every afternoon, about an hour before sunset, a group of about 8 parachutists would land on the beach in front of the hotel. Looked like fun.

Crappy cell phone video of humpback whales off of Puerto Vallarta. Special cameo by my index finger.

Usage of commas seems to be problematic, as well.

I'll have to try that Old Forester. It seems it's made with more rye than usual, which is a good thing, IMO.

I hear you on the smokey thing, and Highland Park used to be the only whiskey I drank,...
