had scotch once..never again lol

Funny enough, I'm supposed to go to a gigantic liquor store this weekend on a trip so I shall take your list with me.

Eagle Rare would be an interesting one to start with. It's got a nice personality. Woodford is a very reliable standby. Like the Honda Accord of bourbon. There's nothing wrong with it, but there's nothing particularly exciting about it.

If you want to get dangerous: Booker's. 128 proof.

[boxman]

There's always been activity here.

It died down quite a bit during after the last producer was replaced. I recall there was periods where minutes could pass without a single post.

[TigerLily]

Nope.  That's norland's quote. 

Oops, sorry Shay

[Sandra Kristen]

Yes it is. 

It's kind of adorable though after awhile. It just gets worse and worse and they keep going lol. I love the kid acting like his amp is broke when he forgets how to play the song.

Can dolphins swim in liquor? I don't see why not, they're mammals. Hmm.

[ShayP]

This has always been the best thread on bellgab

I concur. 

[TigerLily]

god damn hoagie how many times do you have to say " emasculated " tonight lol

Because Robin made him book this guest

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

So now that art has retired again suddenly there is activity again here? :O

Activity in here never died.

Yeah, I guess somewhat. I guess the anger had to die down...then we got our senses about us.  Plus, we'd use the thread to talk about anything but Hoagie.

I'll look for them. My modus operandi is to look for Armagnac, but I wouldn't mind exploring decent bourbon more.

Yes....but you need custom goggles. 

[Sandra Kristen]

Thread at least is great to make up for the disappointing show

[ShayP]

Oops, sorry Shay

No worries!    Just want to make sure norland gets credit.  The press can be nasty ya know. 

[norland2424]

Because Robin made him book this guest

i wonder if he lost a bet with her

[SciFiAuthor]

Yes....but you need custom goggles. 

I'm still disappointed that Dr. Wong wouldn't transplant my head onto your body. Stupid medical ethics.

No it's just a femdom relationship.

[(Sandman) Logan-5]

Any brand pref?

Glenfiddich 15 year at the youngest. 21 year for a treat.

I was going to give Sandra my head.  Oh well.

[paladin1991]

He's just trying to clear the air about his relationship with Robin.

Slipping in code words.

[ShayP]

No it's just a femdom relationship.

Yep! 

[trostol]

Thanks - you passed the new glaucoma test

I realize now that nobody is even trying to listen to this show, haha - smart move.  He's talking about the horrors of the TPP now, which is a huge subject of interest to me, but it's impossible to listen to him for more than a few seconds at a time before nodding off...
