    Good luck!

    Buy a bottle of Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel proof.  It's around $66.00 and is one of the most underrated and best barrel proofers out there, regardless of price.  No need to wait😁

     

    It held its own against the GTS, in a blind tasting, right @HOF44 ?

    It’s ok, but let’s not get carried away. It’s not GTS.

    AP: States and cities slow to spend federal pandemic money

     

    As Congress considered a massive COVID-19 relief package earlier this year, hundreds of mayors from across the U.S. pleaded for “immediate action” on billions of dollars targeted to shore up their finances and revive their communities.

     

    Now that they’ve received it, local officials are taking their time before actually spending the windfall.

     

    As of this summer, a majority of large cities and states hadn’t spent a penny from the American Rescue Plan championed by Democrats and President Joe Biden, according to an Associated Press review of the first financial reports due under the law. States had spent just 2.5% of their initial allotment while large cities spent 8.5%, according to the AP analysis.

     

    Many state and local governments reported they were still working on plans for their share of the $350 billion, which can be spent on a wide array of programs.

     

    Though Biden signed the law in March, the Treasury Department didn’t release the money and spending guidelines until May. By then, some state legislatures already had wrapped up their budget work for the next year, leaving governors with no authority to spend the new money. Some states waited several more months to ask the federal government for their share.

     

    Cities sometimes delayed decisions while soliciting suggestions from the public. And some government officials — still trying to figure out how to spend previous rounds of federal pandemic aid — simply didn’t see an urgent need for the additional cash.

    I work for a school system that received aid and the restrictions on spending it are so onerous that not much gets spent.

    So...why did the squad vote against the infrastructure bill?  What did they hope to accomplish?

    Pretty sure they are convinced that once this was part was passed that the Republican sympathizers would end up scuttling the other bill. Wouldn’t surprise me at all if they were right. That’s why they wanted it done in the other order. 

  4. I used to shoot in IPSEC pistol combinations in my 20’s. But hadn’t really touched a gun for over 20 years. So when I decided to get a concealed permit found s course that was 2 days 4 hours each with a range hour at the end.  Was pretty good.  Brought in cops and a lawyer and went ove lots of situations.  But I could have just done an online thing and been done with it. You get what you pay for.

    drink it on the rocks or with a large splash?  Seems like something that'll end your night early if you're going neat.

    Aldi had a special on all the Wahlburgers stuff this week.  Burger patties, bacon, pickles, Wahl sauce.  The son wanted to try it so I picked it all up and put this together this evening.

    I gotta say I’m a fan of the Wahlbugers hamburger. Surprised me.

    I finally checked out the store in DuPont tonight as I was walking by....holy ****balls, I was like a kid in Willy Wonka's factory with all the selection.

     

    Are Prav's picks worth the extra money? I got some recommendations from him and ended up taking home some Weller Antique since I'm a big Buffalo Trace fan

    It’s pretty much mostly what I drink now.  Being able to help pick makes it easier too.  Plus I think we all know how tight Skinsfan1311 is, and he buys a lot of these.
