    Switching from Rum & Coke to Whiskey & ?

    Hello, After many years of enjoying Rum & Coke cocktails, I'd like to temporarily try some simple drinks with Whiskey. If possible, no more than 3 ingredients including the Whiskey. Like Whiskey & Coke, Whiskey Sour, Old Fashioned, etc. What can you recommend? Thanks, Hal

    Beer

    Why are all the domestic brewers pushing LIGHT beer? That's no way to be! That 4.5% alcoholic content is for people who have never tasted real beer and think that's the way it should taste. Beer must be hearty, with a rich, malty flavor and sufficient alcoholic content! I always buy...

    Bitter-Looking American Indian Chiefs

    Of all the Photographs, Paintings, and Statues of the Great American Indian Chiefs, such as Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Geronimo, Tecumseh, Cochise, and others, I have not seen one image where they did not have glowering scowls on their faces. If they had pride in their tribes, why didn't they...

    Punxutawney Phil

    Punxutawney Phil emerged from his burra today and saw his shadduh, which means six more weeks of Wintah. But that's OK, 'cause 6 weeks takes us to March 16, and Spring won't arrive until the 20th anyway, so there's no problem! Howl

    I'm Proud Of all You Women!

    I'm proud of all you women who have blown the whistle and pointed the finger at those depraved sexual predators! Keep fighting and let the media know about all those incidents as they occur! (That doctor Larry Nassar should be castrated!) Hal

    Fascinating But Terrifying

    These were the sounds from the Dive Sirens mounted on the fixed landing gear of the German JU-87 Stuka dive bombers. They produced a screaming wail when the plane went into a high speed dive, terrorizing the victims below. (Note the siren propellers on the landing gear) The Falcon would know...
