  1. Well said. Every day is a gift. May you all enjoy peace, comfort, love and appreciation for the fact that no matter what any of our current situations are right now, we've got it pretty damn good.
  2. This. Bourbon + Tennessee whiskey exported almost $1.5B worth of product in '23. Any guess what their numbers will be this year and going forward? With younger people drinking fewer spirits, it doesn't make much sense to kill your export business while simultaneously opening markets for other countries.
  3. Seriously, you've got a sound plan. The only risk is people lingering too long. But I'm guessing you've got a solution for that, too.
  4. A bonus: that shit is recyclable while the colorful patterned stuff is not. So you're not being a cantankerous Scrooge, you're being responsible and earth friendly!
  5. "But first we hit the drive through beer barn so she could grab a cold 40 malt liquour!"
  6. You're goddamn right/BB gif goes here.
  7. UPDATE: package has been found! I happened to get to the mailbox while the postal lady was there putting in today's mail. I explained the situation, she explained she was out yesterday & someone else was covering her route. She started looking in the parcel boxes and found it in the 2nd one she tried. It was good to give her credit & appreciation for saving the day during a time of year when they're under constant stress and harassment. But I am still an insensitive prick because I wrapped them all up & put under the tree so she's gonna have to wait 2 more days.
  8. Do you know how much Dulcolax AB could buy with a half mil?
  9. Remember a few years ago when the Bidens were sweetly taking phone calls with young kids at Christmas time, wishing them good cheer & asking them what they wanted from Santa and some dipshit MAGA dad snuck in a Let's Go Brandon? Please, oh please 8lb baby Jesus let dotard try making similar calls this year & have some parent ask him why he raped all of those young girls.
  10. Guilty. But I thought insensitivity was a badge of honor on Surly?
  11. UltraDisc One Step vinyls of a couple of her favorite albums which shall go unnamed lest this thread breakdown into an insufferable mess like most of the threads in the Music forum.
  12. And the update is that I received the USPS notification that the package was delivered at 11:36AM today. I went to the mailbox (cluster boxes in our 'hood) and there was no key for the parcel box which the package would have to be placed in (at least I would hope they wouldn't try to bend 3 Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab LPs and squeeze into a a standard mail slot). So I immediately went to the USPS website & submitted the tracking # and details only to be bounced to the page saying "our records show your item was scanned. Check with a household member & wait 24 hours to submit a claim." So I'm stuck hoping that they put the key for the parcel box in someone else's mailbox and that they'll do the right thing and drop it on our doorstep. On the bright side, MoFi did insure it so I'll eventually get the albums or money back.
  13. Same here. And 'Road to Hell' will always bring me to a specific time/place in the early '90s in Austin. I'm assuming a lot of cigarettes between those albums to roughen up his voice, but I never expected him to be behind such a '70s mellow pop breakup song like "Fool."
  14. Wasn't an option for this gift. They have no distribution channels and ship direct to the customer.
