Scottish mafia ?

Where there's alcohol... there's always a mafia...

 

Taking recycling too far perhaps?

That would probably look very tempting to me if I were an astronaut in the ISS

The Russians don't have a problem with drinking in space so I'm pretty sure a few bottles of something is up there from a supply ship.

I usually just take my whiskey from people who are smaller than me that can't fight back.

It seems like you answered a slightly different question than the OP asked. I think you answered, "how do you take THEIR whiskey." On the other hand, if you are bigger than the OP and he is not inclined to fight back, I guess he will not push the issue.

You gotta hand it to the Russians... sometimes they can show practicality and common sense

And so do most Navies but the US Navy officially has a no alcohol policy that was strictly enforced (with medical exceptions) until the 1980's when beer was authorized from 45 continuous days at sea (some of us did 100+ days), I just so happened to be on that first 1980's beer supply mission at the IO Gonzo Station for Eagle_Claw when we sent some supply to the USS Nimitz for 100 days as a "Copier repairman" (A side job that I actually did).

We all had a beer before landing on the ship and tossed the empties out the loading ramp.

Canada was the last of the Commonwealth Navies that eliminated "Splicing the Main Brace" about a decade ago.

Most of us still had a bottle for the right occasion. I had a few bottles of Jack Daniels from Singapore that lasted until we hit port in Kenya. The Chief (who liked a drink now and then) and I were good friends during that cruise but a shot still cost him $20.

Not until the Sun's over the yard arm I hope!

Never on duty and only one shot.

 

Can't drink Whiskey shots anymore; especially sour mash; but always with water. Cognac or Brandy after dinner.


Drinking Whiskey with dinner is frowned on; but I find it delightful.

How do I take my whiskey?
The same way I clean component leads.
I don't.
I prayed at the porcelain throne when I was young, but I apparently got smarter over the years. I simply don't like the effects enough to try to fit in with people that do enjoy the effects. After 20 years without a sip, I tried 5 ounces of wine just about a year ago. All I wanted was for it to go away!!!

Red faced, hot and sweaty, flaccid muscles. Not a hint of witty, handsome, or socially sophisticated.
I am just not the kind of person that metabolizes alcohol well.

 

Macallan's?

Well, tonight it's a 10 year old Ardbeg, just poured one as it happens, tend to save the older stuff for special. A 16yo Lagavulin is nice as is Glenmorangie.

Interesting... you must have native american (or possibly Inuit) genes in you...

That's how I feel when I'm sober.

... 3% from a Cree Indian about 4 generations back

Once again... I wasn't paying close attention... but I didn't think that such a small heritage could affect one so much!

 

It's serious problem that thanks to the stars I never had. My wife and youngest boy can't drink a sip without almost passing out.
