I wonder how many side view mirrors they go through before they find the balance point?

Actually I love Scotch, Bourbon, Rye, all of 'em.  Take you snobby attitude and bury it in a peat bog. ;-)

To be fair, scotch was being made long before bourbon came to be.  The Scottish just happen to a flexible folk who enjoy cheap oak barrels.  For some reason you can only call your whiskey "bourbon" if it was aged in virgin oak barrels.  It could be argued that scotch helps make your bourbon cheaper...

Although I love a good scotch, I am an equal opportunity drinker.  I'll drink pretty much whatever someone hands me.

Except that 'shine NSF showed up with that one time.

I'm pretty sure that was just gasoline in a bottle.

I'm (very minority) part owner in a whisk(e)y bar so I have interest in any of the distilled fermented grain mash beverages!!

p.s. Baron I would gladly take the Walker but Doug's more likely to be out your way.

Plus, I can prolly wrestle it away from David anyway.

So, I start this thread about the Opressor Man and it quickly devolves to discussion of bump-drafting SIMCAs and booze.  A very LeMony outcome.

I had no idea what this was, so I looked it up.

Basically, you are admitting that the bourbon sucks so much that you have to water it down, add sugar and then - just to kill the smell - top it off with a mint leaf?
As an avid scotch drinker, I couldn't agree with you more.

How  dare you,  sir! How  dare you!

Chris  should immediately lock this thread because of the slander against good American booze.

We use Bourbon to clean carburetors, I never thought about drinking it.

Now I know you're making stuff up, bob.  I've seen what you drink.

Apparently he is drinking carburetor solvent.
That's one method of haz waste disposal.

Moar stuntin' would work in lieu of acceptable pecs. I like cars on two wheels. Shoot, I'd gladly jump someone else's car if we're all done for the weekend. I like yumps! Not sure there's any we could use around MSR-H, though. BOO.

(re: the first post--TBH, Chump's squeamishness on Lemons talk is a huge turn-off for me whenever I get on their board. It smacks of "let's make guys who have cars already 99.99999% prepped for this series feel really, really unwelcome here." Yeah, let's not do that. I much prefer bourbon chat, anyway.)
