    I can imagine the backroom trading, ' naw, he got the double gold last time, it's somebody elses turn'.

    Obviously, I'm missing a bet. Chicago Intergalactic Spirits Competition anyone?
    Intergalactic? Does that mean there will be a Aldebaran whiskey category?

    As long as you have good whiskey you're not "unemployed", you're "Funemployed!!!"

    All the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average.

    And everybody wins the double-gold.

    Re: San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

    Did anyone not win a medal? Wonder what type of medal I'd win if I took a leak in a whiskey bottle and sent it to them?

    In the furture, I think I may avoid any whiskey with a medal from SF.

    P.S. - I'm in for the Chicago Intergalactic Whiskey Festival. It should run all year long and the distiller's should keep sending us their best whiskey until we say stop.

    All you have to do is pay the entrance fee and you get a medal.
    Just like in the wine world.

    Yet today I received several press releases from producers, all crowing about the "prestigious" awards they received in San Francisco.

    You should ask them how much was the purchase.

    In that case, you may have to stop drinking whiskey altogether!
