Vendaval -> Who is that man on the liquor bottle? (3/30/2009 4:19:29 PM)
Ever wonder about some of the men's names on your favorite liquors? Captain Morgan was a feared 17th Century privateer; Johnnie Walker ran a grocery in Kilmarnock, Scotland in the 1800's, his son Alexander was the whiskey maker; Jack Daniel was the descendent of Welsh immigrants and brewed whiskey in Lynchburg, Tennesse; the founding Jose Cuervo received a land grant from the King of Spain for land in Jalisco, Mexico; Jim Beam was the great-grandson of the man who actually started the distillery, Jacob Bean; Charles Tanqueray broke with the family tradition of becoming a clergyman; and Gaspare Campari started as a master drink mixer in Turin and later produced and marketing his own apertif in Milan. The recipe remains a closely guarded secret. Bottoms up! [sm=buddies.gif] http://blogs.static.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/20098.html

Who is this Jack Daniel guy you speak of? And what's a distillery?

A distillery is the grown up version of a candy factory.

My absolute favorite booze is Maker's Mark; a better bourbon there is not.

Heh...I've been fucked by Jack on many an occasion.

Thought you would be stopping by to say hello, Aileen. [:D]

I have a bad "drinking contest story" surrounding Bacardi 151. I was 22, my friends dared me, I apparently had an amusing conversation with the police, and I had a fugly waitress's number in my pocket when I woke up.

Lol i have the same reaction to brandy, vodka, bacardi and gin. My friends will not allow me to drink any of the above as they send me absolutely nuts!!

It does make fantastical things happen :D I usually don't drink much. Two or three shots over 30 minutes and I'm pretty buzzed and I usually stop around there :D I've only been badly drunk a couple times... I don't think I did anything too stupid.

InTonguesslut -> RE: Who is that man on the liquor bottle? (3/30/2009 5:47:09 PM)
I did the last time i was drunk and that was saturday. I told everyone at my local munch i was going to 'Browns', a very posh cocktail bar in leeds to prostitute myself for £35, for a pair of shoes i'd fallen in love with earlier that day [:'(]

AND..........?

popeye1250 -> RE: Who is that man on the liquor bottle? (3/30/2009 5:55:39 PM)
One of my brothers used to drink Capt. Morgan. Anytime I'd see it on the table I knew that if I didn't leave we were going to fight. I call it "Captain Stupid."
