About Bourbon, I looked it up. You're right. Although it's not an actual U.S. Law that bourbon must be from Kentucky to be labeled Bourbon, it would be blasphemous to do so if it weren't. Unwritten laws of whiskey are good enough for me. Regardless, Dickel (a sour mash from Tennessee) is all a brother needs.

Brew, you missed one. And spelled Skynyrd wrong eight times.

Lee, right the fuck on.

I spelled it wrong on purpose. They're the worst band in the history of time. The reason the mullet was invented, and the forefathers of the shit pop rock country music that has been the soundtrack for this country ever since some big buildings fell down. Besides, I bet the surviving band members wouldn't spell it right 50% of the time anyways.

Bourbon on the other hand is a beautiful, beautiful thing. Mint Julips this weekend anyone?

I wish I could punch Bruce from North Cakalaka for saying Skynyrd is the worst band of all time.

Lucky no one around here heard that...

Keep waving those confederate flags.

I recently got a Confederate Flag tattoo on my forehead. One across my chest and in each armpit.

I'm also looking to get TV Dinner scraps tattooed on my chin and drawn on each shirt I wear.
