Depends on my mood.

Sometimes I like a nice, bright full moon to light up the night. Other times, no moon at all makes for some nice stargazing especially during a meteor shower or other such celestial event where you want it as dark as possible.

Rather partial to Old Smoky (Last check, they are safe from the fire)


Had "Popcorn Sutton's" once. Never again. Somewhere between death-metal rap and kerosene on the harshness scale. Might be good for cleaning parts or as an emergency charcoal starter, but definitely not for abusing your palette.

I love the store in Gatlinburg. Last time I was there, I found out you can get 12 jars into the saddlebags of an FLH Harley, if you really need to...

I am partial to the moonshine they store in a barrel in the KY countryside for 4 or more years, then they bottle it and actually sell it for about the same price as moonshine...

My uncle worked for Union Carbide in Texas before retiring and he would bring quart jars for everyone of adult age to the family reunions. It was a byproduct that they dumped in those days, 1960 to 1980. Dad loved it, I couldn't stand it.

I do not like flavored alcohol. Things like Ouzo is for rich women on diets. For Happy Hour at work this week they got Pumpkin Flavored beer. I told the millennial in charge of that to call me when he gets beer. I like my scotch over the rocks, my tequila straight from the bottle, and my moonshine from a mason jar.

THAT SAID, Doc Collier's banana is REALLY good. I heartily endorse this product.

Sugarlands Butterscotch is one of our favorites. Full Throttle strawberry is pretty good too.

Just came back from Gatlinburg and it was a good thing we had lots of extra ccc in the rv before heading home [emoji106]
