My boss from Louisville just called and told me he has a bottle of Stagg Jr for me. Now I just have to wait for him to come here in about a month.

Question fellas...

I left an opened bottle of bourbon in my center console and forgot about until today. It's not been in there quite a month. Is it ruined?

You're lucky it wasn't a cork top. My friend left a bottle of Belle Meade bourbon laying on its side in my yukon. Came out the next day and the cork had popped off and the bourbon had soaked my carpets - about an inch shy of where my Husky liner starts. Reeked for days.
