I've actually been able to find EH more regularly here west of Fort Worth and I've paid about $50 a bottle for it lately.

Went to Kentucky recently and learned that almost all of what we think of low shelf bourbon brands, also have some premium products. Maker's Mark had some bottles at the distillery that I haven't seen anywhere else and they're fantastic. They're essentially barrel select by the distillery. The distilleries were all packed busy.

It would seem that Jim Beam isn't "shutting down" as a permanent status. Bourbon is a tough business. You can't just spin up more bourbon and make it readily available. And there's hardly a thing such as bourbon "aged too long". They'll be able to sell what is sitting for the time being at a premium if sales lag in the short term. In other words, aging the bourbon longer increases its value.

This is how I roll also. Expectations are so low on the last two weeks, it's impossible to "underperform". I like to take off when I have something to get out of.

About time some of these rogue judges get some consequences. . . Except I'm waiting for the consequence part of this.

I just need to know if the places they tore down monuments are more, same or less violent than they were before the monuments were tore down.

Did we move the needle?

My $.02 is that starting at the sophomore or junior level, there should be a class introduced that goes over the fundamentals about the costs of post high school education, the efforts to get into different career paths, the incomes each career path earns beginning, on average, and on the high end. Then demonstrate how your decisions after high school affect your life for as long as you've been alive at that point.

Colleges have sold students the dream of earning 6 figures out of the gate and that just isn't an option for 90 to 95% of the degree plans they offer.

Progress feels super slow right now. I wasn't planning on adding the zip system (green boards) but decided to after talking to a couple of people who know what they're doing.

The center support in the pool house had too much deflection when I was adding the weight, so I decided to convert it into a monotruss for the support needed. There is no noticeable flex now so I'm more comfortable with that.

Metal for the siding is sitting on the trailer next to the shop so I'll be working on that for the time being.

Picked up the Telehandler and will be putting trusses on the shop portion in the coming week or two.

Hegseth has been the most productive appointment Trump has made. He's making ALL the right moves.

Curiosity has me wondering. Can you tell us why you're asking this question?

So one vote for a book and one vote for don't waste your time. Gotta love the OT sometimes.
