re: Gordan McKernan vs Morris Bart - Billboard and advertising War

Posted by QuothTheRaven on 2/21/25 at 11:40 am

Morris Bart has a billboard on I565 just outside of Huntsville, AL. Gordon has none in the area.

I guess you live in the wrong city in Alabama. My wife and I were given a code to get out free after the birth of our son a few weeks ago

re: Just finished reading the book Mr. New Orleans about a French Quarter Pimp

Eh, Pimp by Iceberg Slim is a superior book and much more believable.

re: Anyone here marry a foreign woman?

Get off of dating apps for one. The last 3 women I dated, including my wife, I met in a grocery store. An older guy I worked with told me it's the best place to pick up women. Pay attention to what's in their carts and it will let you know if she knows how to cook and if she has kids. I married a Puerto Rican woman, so she is technically foreign, but also a US citizen. I still feel like I hit the jackpot 8 years later.

Agreed!! I am so worried Rare Breed Barrel Proof will become allocated.

If you have to "sprinkle something in" I might disagree with you. But I do like WT 101.

If you are looking for the salt profile or something close is the only reason I recommend it. My go-to beginner bourbons are WT101 and EW BiB. I don't think Buffalo Trace holds a candle to either of them, plus they are always available where I am. I just scored a Knob Creek 12, Heaven Hill BiB, John J Bowman Single Barrel, Angel's Envy StorePick Barrel Proof, and a EHT Single Barrel BiB....I have no clue if I will crack one tonight since I'm really enjoying this Yellowstone store pick

If there's any rye drinkers , still time to find yourself some yellow rose rye. My absolute favorite and well worth the $45

I haven't had much of the Texas Rye or Bourbon as I never see it where I am. My go to for rye is Bulleit Rye 12 year

I.E., You are overpaying for average bourbon

All of the Jefferson's Ocean stuff is overpriced. Get some 101, sprinkle in a touch of sea salt and boom, you have a better product for 1/4 of the price

re: Anyone ever use another job offer as a tactic to get a raise/promotion?

Posted by QuothTheRaven on 12/22/24 at 3:40 pm

Never. When I look for a new job, I plan on leaving, not leverage my current employer into giving me more money. I started a new job in May and took a 5% pay cut. When I put my notice in my employer at the time offered me a 20% raise. I was informed Friday that I would be getting a 6% raise plus a 7% bonus for the year. This is the first time in my career I have ever received a bonus. I have zero regrets. I have time for hobbies and my health is better since we have an employee gym.

Agreed, the car did not explode which is what I'm guessing is supposed to be the happy ending. Watch closely, you see the car turn left. The explosion came from the building the camera is mounted to.

Chattanooga
Huntsville

When I was looking to leave BR for good these were the 3 cities I looked for jobs in. We chose Huntsville since it had the most bang for your buck and couldn't be happier. We visit Chattanooga at least once a month and it certainly has a better nightlife and food scene, but Huntsville can't be beat for raising a family.
