Well I had a lot of guns, but one day while boating the boat sank they accidently went down with the boat.

Good picks, all around. Though I am a Maker's Mark guy myself.

Off-topic a tad....but you might have heard MM was going to "reformulate" their blend by reducing alcohol content. Apparently, LOTS of folks wrote in and raised hobb (myself included), pointing out that we were buying a premium whiskey already - and if they followed through with their plans, we'd go elsewhere. Bottom line - got an email from 'em last week that they've shelved those plans.....

Well, a lot of us Texans are lousy sailors. Our lakes must be silting up with all the accidentally lost gun collections.

That's so hilarious that you mention that. I read that one morning before going to work. That day I had to brief my boss on a new proposal. Now I work as a manpower analyst in the Marine Corps, and the word of the day right now is sequestration. So when I go to brief the boss, I broke the ice by making a joke about how even Maker's Mark was being affected by sequestration, and went on to explain their "watering down" of the product. I'm glad to hear that they are shelving that plan. Let's hope it "ages" for a long time in a dark oak barrel. Forever.
