Hey Joe, Looks like a second "L" (L:) with both right legs in sync (going backwards) in a full gallop to the finish line to me. The first "L" has the two (2) right legs going in opposite directions (front one going backwards and rear one going forwards) around the first turn. BUT, I could be wrong . . . . Let me know what you need and I'll swap you for it, tho'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha! Regular, Loch & K(e)y single barrel, old bottle, older bottle, or really old decanter? I'm easy! And you had to bust my chops with a picture of Eli??? If he didn't get the luckiest passes in two (2) Super Bowls, the Patriots would have had eight (8) NFL Championships and not JUST six (6). No good pictures of Payton and his Championship Colts, eh???

The old Fitz in that decanter was very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did a system update and my pics and music have become a bit discombobulated. That was the best I could do on short notice. Here ya go. Like this one better? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it from the 1970s. The decanter has a Tennessee tax stamp and seal that was in use from1934 to 1992 - narrows it down some. Note the neck label, too. When was W.L. Weller & Sons in Louisville, Kentucky? On the bottom is the decanter is a "Circle W" stamping, "Liquor Bottle" (duh), and the numbers "119 8 85". My guess would be that this is a 1985 decanter - but that would be a CA guess. HTH! Edited October 12, 2023 by GeeTen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No good pictures of Payton and his Championship Colts, eh??? This picture KICKS ASS. You are a bourbon legend and I expect no less. To paraphrase, "So, you like OWA bitches? Let me show you how the legend plays the game." Shit boys, I didn't even need to go to my bunker. Not sure who you are talking about when you reference Payton? I remember a great QB named Peyton. He bitch slapped the Patriots a few times and when his arm got tired he let his little brother Eli take a turn or two. His teams always struggled against former Tampa Bay Buccaneer QB Tom Brady's team. The best QB for the Patriots? Hmmm...I guess it would be Jim Plunkett or Steve Grogan. Personally, I thought Tony Eason played great in SBXX. He set the record being the only starting QB to not complete a pass in a SB. Settubg a record in the SB is a good thing right? Are Colts fans petty when it comes to the Patriots? You betcha! Seriously, Frank, all in jest. This lineup rocks as do you! Keep on keeping on Friend! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 All this back and forth banter, and I forgot to post my bottle emptying nightcap last night. This was a retirement gift from a fellow SB member. I’ve been nursing it a little over two years now. Dang it was good. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should know that to win a championship of any kind, at any level takes a measure of luck somewhere during the season whether its in the middle or at the end. Sour grapes never helps, but a nice big pour, might!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought one on a whim and liked it enough to go back and get a backup. It's really hitting the spot tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really entertaining, and what a spectacle that rivalry is with Texas. I love college football, and while OU and TU will be extremely worthy programs to join the SEC next year, I hate what is happening with teams being lured into other conferences like that. USC and Oregon et al, going to the Big 10? Ugh…. I agree about the conference realignment, even though my alma mater (OU) is one of the big movers that triggered this recent round of chaos. I'm a Big 12 fan at heart, but when Nebraska and Texas A&M left the conference a decade ago, it was a mortal wound. The conference was not able to lure any equivalent replacements, despite efforts, so it did not surprise me at all that OU and UT eventually looked to greener pastures,... just to keep up with their peer programs.
