    Also, @HOF44 you might know this, did they get rid of 3 hour delays for school (not just admin)? I recall 3 hour delays when I was younger. A lot. I don’t think I’ve seen one in a long time 

    Our school system has done away with delayed openings due to the transportation logistics.  Just don’t have enough staff to pull of delayed openings.  They implemented a Code Orange which is for weather deemed dangerous but not crippling.  The kids do virtual and the system is not charged for being off a day.  I telework, which for me means mostly answering emails. Being in finance all our programs are locked down for off site access.

    With the temp swings and potential rain following the snow, what’s actually accumulated might be zero when it’s all said and done - assuming it even snows several inches at all. 
     

    im sure school will close anyways. 

    Monday is a holiday. Hopefully we closed Tuesday.

    Really? Idk how that company can survive being down that long. Isn’t it running your pay checks?

    The paychecks are run in our finance office.  Kronos was used for scheduling and tracking hours and charges.  It’s a total PIA right now. Been almost a month.

    Tell me more about $22 rye.  Would it be good in an old fashioned?

    Gotta take what Rick says with a grain of salt.  He drinks diesel from the hose. Or as I like to call it Mellow corn.  Will drink anything!!!!

  6. In taking my new job I started about 6 months ago I wasn’t going to work for a place that forced you to come in on days you obviously shouldn’t. Now if the schools where I live are closed I get to stay home.  My wife is setting here right now worried about the crap she is going to get if she doesn’t go to work today.  I’m over that.  Wish she would get a different job.

    So I'm being financially foolish by not drinking more bourbon? 🤔

    I find my self thinking now, should I open this bottle?? I know what it tastes like and if I can find something similar way cheaper I end up not opening it.

    It's insane, isn't it?   

    I snagged a few bottles of standard BT at the package store, in Norfolk, for $20.00, as gifts for friends.   We saw it at a MD liquor store for $50.00 and it was allocated 😅  Woodford rye for $20.00 and the liquor store was selling it for $43.00.  Maker's 101 $39.99 at VA ABC stores and $60+ in MD.   It's

     

    I'm ready for "Bourbon at Bob's"  I have a Belle of Lincoln JD bottle and a real dusty miniature of WT101 with your name on it 😉

    If we can ever get past this Covid crap!!

    If you think that the price increase for the Caorryvrecken is obscene, there are a ton of bourbons out there where prices have skyrocketed, only because they've either won an award, or a whiskey expert, (Fred Minnick), has deemed it extraordinary.    Just Google the price history/availability for stuff like Booker's, McKenna 10 Year, Stagg Jr., etc.   It's nuts.

     

    Bourbon has turned out a great investment for me. Last week I sold 5 bottles for $5450 that cost me $420. I’ve held those for 4 years. The bourbon world is nuts right now.

    Skip ahead an hour.  WVU is still in it.  Kevin White is destroying Alabama's defense.  My wife and I have hooted an hollered enough that a dozen other people have joined us.  I am buying rounds of Fireball for everyone.  Wife and I have had WAY more of our fill of Fireball than is healthy.  The bar RAN OUT OF Fireball, and I gave the bartender $100 to go steal some from the bar next door which was clo

    Rochester. 

     

    Speaking of drink8ng soemtj8ng dry.  We were headed up to WhistlePig farm to pick a couple barrels of whiskey.  It was only $99 bucks more to fly first class so we get first class seats and then drink the plane dry of whoskey miniatures plus we had each brought a bunch of 2 ounce bottles carry on.   We were sloshed by the t8me we got to Vermont.
