    Starting my yearly vegetable garden today...put out some lime and chicken shit about a month ago. So I'll turn the soil today with the harrows, let it dry till tomorrow, then harrow again tomorrow, fluff the soil up one more time with the cultivator next weekend, then plant, Italian green beans, okra, kale, Japanese cukes, and Heinz Roma tomatoes

    I remember those days. We always put the small guy in the trunk along with the beer. The speakers were metal cases that hung on your window and the sound was always "tinny".

    You can't go back to work right away because you are still a carrier for some period of time. I'm not sure what that period of time is but I suggest you look it up before exposing yourself to others.

    I must have gone to the drive-in with you 'cause that really says what it was like with me. Was there a guy in your group who was always trying to get together with the car full of girls parked near you? Well, that was me. I think I remember you, you were the heathen who always wanted to drink his beer out of the bottle. Oh wait, that was me, too.

    I was fortunate. The girls sought me. I had some money and other assorted party goods. True, I was a heathen but that was 1970. We liked to do shots of this shitty whiskey called Fleishmann's. There was always some cheap skate that brought Boone's Farm or MD 2020.- Horrible gut wrenching wine which resulted in a vomit session for the fools who drank it.

    MD 2020 never made me puke. My father in law likes to drink that so I drink it with him. Use to drink it every now and then when I was a teenager.

    In those days it was drunk warm, or if by fortune with a cube of ice. We did more than drink only this.

    I suppose it is not as smooth warm. Oh, I drank more than that alone. Often followed it with wild turkey 101 or some other whiskey. Often proceeded it with 40's of steel reserve.

    Funny story about MD 2020.
    One year, my wife and I were hosting a Thanksgiving dinner for our family. My brother-in-law said he would like to bring a close friend. My wife and I said sure. Now, I had picked out this really good and quite expensive German white wine to go with dinner. I chilled it, as I always did with sweet or semisweet wines. My brother-in-law shows up with his friend carrying a brown paper bag. He showed me this wine that he had brought for our dinner and festivities. I placed my delectable German white wine back in the refrigerator and as a good host pronounced that we would all partake in this wine that this guy had brought so graciously for us all to drink. I had never seen or heard of this, what must surely be excellent, wine before, MD 2020. As I took my first sip I tried extremely hard not to show my disgust on my face but I'll bet some of the feeling leaked out.
    Son of a bitch, I will never ever ever ever make that mistake again.

    I like your style. I remember Wild Turkey too. My stomach cold never take what I had put into it from the old days.

    Hey, I once bought a bottle of Wild Turkey. I'm pretty sure that's a bourbon and I prefer scotch over bourbon.
