Stock up for a celebrity pour this Thursday.  (BTW also opening day of the World Cup and POTUS B'day as well).  
More than enough reasons to celebrate or commiserate.

    Noticed all the flags out today and gal downtown ask me what it was for.  I told her it was for Trump's birthday.  She came unglued.  Knew it would happen like that.

    Actually I celebrate our Flag and what it represents.

    @thetrim I thought you would appreciate the Army’s flag being hung up with a spool of  reappropriated 550 cord. #onlyonethiefinthearmy #just tryingtogetmystuffback

    @Killit_and_Grillit - Reads like "all systems go".  I'm just a sailor so I will take your word for it on your B'day.  Enjoy as I'm sure you will.

    That’s a beautiful sight right there! I still have two spoons of that stuff.   As much as I still use it, I don’t think it will ever run out.

    I’m a little late to the party, but I trust this is acceptable?

    @JohnInCarolina - Don't know where you scored that but nice pickup.  
    BTW- a couple of weeks ago I was in a good sized adult beverage (no movies) outlet (Total Wines) and was talking with a distributor about the challenge of finding Don Julio 1942 and made a casual comment, "they didn't even get any Blanton's on their weekly restock.".  A customer walks by and mentions that the Kroger beverage store across the street had two bottles.  Score.   You never know.

    First time i’ve seen it at our local ABC store Frank.  Was only allowed to buy one bottle.  It was $56, which I gather is a pretty good price.

    @JohnInCarolina - you will definitely enjoy it.  Give the label a look as to its pedigree.  That is definitely a decent price.  A reward for cycling thru OAK  ;)
