Booze of the Week

Posted by ArmedGeek on Tuesday, August 24, 2010 in BOTW

I know its been quite some time since I’ve posted a BotW but I assure you I didn’t stop drinking. I’ve just not been drinking anything new. Well, at the liquor store today I picked up a bottle of Jameson and a bottle of this. I’ll let you know what I think when I try it.

Update: Well, here’s the thing. It ain’t bad but it ain’t great. Elija Craig is a bit sweeter than some of the other bourbons I’ve had but is not quite as flavorful. So if you like sweeter liquors then you might just give this one a go. Maker’s Mark is still at the top of my bourbon list.

Scent of a….State?

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Tuesday, August 24, 2010 in Funny Pics, Social

No, that’s not a typo. A company by the name Bond no. 9 has released a perfume exclusive to Texas, and to be sold through Saks Fifth Avenue stores in Plano, Houston, Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio.

Um, yeah…that’s the bottle. It’s covered in Swarovski crystals. But with a price tag of $360 a bottle, it should be come with two hookers and a bottle of whiskey. It is limited to a run of 400 (thank goodness), and sold through the month of August. The company claims it is supposed to smell like a “scenic tour through a southwestern garden”. Last I checked, the scent of cacti and dry-as-dust grass wasn’t that appealing, but hey, whatever flicks their Bic. ;)

Mel’s Challenge, Too

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Monday, August 23, 2010 in Friendly Wager, Funny Pics

So, Mel over at Big Fat Nerve posted a challenge: what do you look like first thing in the morning. Well, Nicole met the challenge, and taking a deep breath, I guess so will I:

Yeah, my mirror is kinda crappy, and no, I hadn’t brushed my hair. I was running out the door to walk my eldest to the bus stop. Who cares at that time in the morning about their hair?? I have better things to do, like drink my coffee :)

Welcome Home

Posted by ArmedGeek on Friday, August 20, 2010 in News, War

I’m sure you already heard about this but the other day George W. Bush showed up at DFW to welcome soldiers home. I’m quick to admit that there’s an awful lot about his work as POTUS that I was really unhappy about and I’m sure many of you feel the same. But you just can’t doubt that he’s a good man. This right here is a classy thing to do. He’s not running for any office or trying to score points with the public. He’s just doing his part to make the returning soldiers feel welcomed and appreciated.

How many soldiers have been personally welcomed home by the guy that sent them to war ?

Soothing the Savage Breast

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Friday, August 20, 2010 in Open Thread

Can I pick an awesome post title, or what? I was sitting here listening to Vivaldi’s La Quattro Stagioni, and it came to me. Kinda goes with the blog theme, in an artistic way. Anyway, I started thinking of all the music out there that has the power to make us feel calm, loved, and just downright groovy. What is your favorite song? Favorite type of music? Favorite band? And no, Light My Love Pump by Spinal Tap doesn’t count ;)

Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.  ~Ludwig van Beethoven

Booze in the News

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Tuesday, August 17, 2010 in Booze Links, Ecowackos

From Fox News:

Scientists Develop Whiskey-Based Fuel for Cars

Yes, my friends, the question of whether whiskey is a Good Thing has been answered, once and for all.

Researchers [in Edinburgh, Scotland] found a formula to make the fuel from whiskey by-products.

They combined so-called pot ale -- the liquid from the copper stills distillery equipment -- and the spent grains used to make whiskey, also known as draff, to produce butanol.

The key word is by-products. No whiskey was harmed in the making of this fuel. Nor were starving people denied corn crops, as in the case with ethanol. On top of that, butanol can be combined with any gasoline blend, used by any unmodified vehicles, and has 25% more energy per unit volume. Ethanol FAIL!

And in tribute to this great achievement:

Advertising Fail

Posted by LC Aggie Sith on Sunday, August 15, 2010 in Funny Pics, Teh Funny

So, Saturday night, Hubby, Son and I decide to sit down and watch a boxing match on HBO. Yes, boxing is my contribution to the kid. That, and knives. Anyway, we are seeing two rather inexperienced fighters who have championship belts (because as we all know, belts are given out by 50 different organizations in 200 different weightclasses), start to duke it out. One is wearing FUSCHIA! I thought that was bad enough, until the guy in the emerald camouflage turned and I saw this:

Seriously, people… does anyone else see a problem here?? And just where the hell was management when this was approved???
