I have a lot of things in my liquor cabinet but grappa isn’t one of them.

Now you do not find it here easily except in second class "wineries".

Italian influence as its best. Where I was grown up, the majority of immigrants from Piamonte, had that drink frequently. BTW, it is them whi we used to call "gringos"; go figure.

 

Good news for Joey ... it's been empirically confirmed that he's going to live a long and healthy life:

I just asked my wife to fetch me another beer.

She said, "No, you're done."

Time for a new wife.

 

The first three are for just making room.

It seems I misunderstood her. When she said I was done, what she meant was there was no more beer.

We must work on her communication skills.

And shopping skills, as well.

”I don’t drink too much. I drink just the right amount.”

There’s a great series on Amazon Prime called Goliath and that line was delivered brilliantly by Billy Bob Thornton as a washed out lawyer.

 

I'd rather drink than take pain pills, my back is hurting from to much road sitting while driving. Didn't even feel it last night after 8 fingers of this, from a local Distillery in Ogden Utah, smooth as a babies butt.

Grasshopper, creme de menthe, creme de cacao and light cream

 

I’ve got a sudden craving for grasshoppers tonight! I make my own mint syrup.

 

This beer was a very pleasant surprise ... highly commendable:

There was just one problem: the hospital lacked enough ethanol to serve as an effective antidote. All hope was not lost for Duthie, though, thanks to the medical staff’s decision to improvise. They sent the hospital’s registrar to purchase a $55 bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label whiskey from a local liquor store, and Duthie received a whiskey drip to his stomach through a tube routed first through his nose, the Herald reported.

Five days later, Duthie awoke in the intensive care unit with his sight restored, feeling “good as gold.” Although he lost 14 kg (almost 31 pounds) in the hospital, he told the Herald that he was impressed with the creative cure.
