I recently spent some time in Washington, DC for work. No, I wasn’t called before a Senate subcommittee and asked about my contact with Russian agents. And, no, I wasn’t brought in through the back gate of The White House to help escort Reince and Spicey from the […]
On the return trip from a recent 9U baseball tourney with My Benevolent and The Urchins, we had a hankering for a quick meal before we began the hour long ride home. To satisfy our cravings, we stopped at a shopping center that was located between the field […]
Another day passed and yet another bundle of joy (no, not a small child. We already have those bases covered with our respective Urchins) was delivered to my man, G-LO. For whatever reason, this quarter has been quite bountiful with regards to boozemail and there’s almost too much […]
G-LO has been working the interwebz rather vigorously lately and the samples have been pouring in to the boozemail box. This has created a #FirstWorldProblem of sorts: We just have too much to drink and not enough time to drink it! I know, “Poor you!”. Anyway… A couple of […]

Here on the East Coast, we are rapidly shedding our wintery weather and migrating all too quickly to summer. Spring it seems is no more than a three week block sometime before our Spring Break. As such, when we suddenly found ourselves on the cusp of a few […]
Once again, G-LO received his weekly booze mail shipment. In dividing the spoils, I was tasked with writing up the George Dickel No. 12. This is a Tennessee Whisky made by George A. Dickel & Co., one of many manufacturers that find themselves under the umbrella of the Diageo Empire. […]
Since the New Year, G-LO and I have regrettably been forced to work at our day jobs and attend to many a family obligation. While the former may be of mutual benefit, the latter is probably not so beneficial. In any event, our plates have been rather full, […]
