    If any of y'all have not given the Bourbon Slushie King's recipe a shot, you're missing out!
    Those are great, however, My Beautiful Wife is the one who got the recipe from church. A wink and a nod, goes to her.
    Thank you for the kind words.
    To those of you that make these, be careful with the fireworks. You need all your fingers to hold a cup of the Slushies.

    Ron I will sneak the last bag of Bourbon Slushie from the freezer this evening and raise a glass in celebration of yours, Ron Pratt's and our Great Nation's birthday. Enjoy your day sir!! ;)
    Today is a tour of the RRHOF, and baseball. I will enjoy my day.
    Be careful with the slushies and fireworks my friend, you need all your fingers to hold the cup.

    I know you're a history bluff and probably already know this, but it's an interesting read nonetheless.

    Thank you for sharing this. 
    I actually wrote a similar essay on an entrance exam for law school years ago. Not nearly as in depth, as this wonderful article you had shared, but it was off the cuff, down and dirty, and got me accepted. I was called back for deployment 4 days later. Never went back. The refocus of my college career was given to me once back. Never regretted it.

    Thank you, it was awesome. We picked a great time to go, the Rolling Stone 50th is there right now. The visit ended with Prince doing a cover with Clapton and George Harrison's son shredding "While my Guitar Gently Weeps."
    Hope your 4th was great.

    Thank you and I hope your 4th of July was wonderful. We did the RRHOF then watched a great pitching performance by the Cleveland Pitcher. 10 strikeouts and lost 1-0. Crazy.
