    Of course it's in California

    CA pays drug addicts to stay sober.

    Oh, I suppose it's the nice thing to do. I have an alternate idea, but no ones going to like it.
    If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.

      It says California.

        I've enjoyed a few Woodford Reserve Double Oaks tonight, so no money for me

          If I believe comments on social media, apparently Buffalo Trace has been hard to find on the shelf.

          I've been partial to a good rye lately.

            Buff Trace is limited here in VA, hard to find, and limit of one bottle, per customer

            what shows up in any ABC store is gone in hours


            I have a friend down in the corner of VA that will have one of his workers pick up a bottle or 2 when he goes into NC,


            I've stopped in liquor stores in Wva, NY and MD on travels and none to be had,

            yet I have friends in Wisc and IL that have told me , and mailed me a bottle or 2, that it is stacked up deep in the stores there,

              I know you have knowledge in logistics, so it seems odd that the distribution appears imbalanced.

              The upper Midwest is Busch light territory though.

                Va is a State Controlled Liquor business

                they got smart and hired a guy to run it several years ago with a Grocery retail background, and distribution etc has improved greatly,

                betting the issue is the buyers and limitations placed on them,

                  A friend poured me a shot of Buffalo Trace and I recall it was pretty good. So now you can't find it huh? We took some Makers Mark on a camp out and I thought it was peppery. I'm never going to buy that whiskey with the devil on the label. I don't want hot whiskey. Which brings me to the subject of goofy flavored whiskeys. I was always happy with Jim Beam until they came out with apple whiskey. I won't buy it now just because. Don't get me started on IPA's I do like Stone IPA(makers of Arrogant Bastard), but the majority of them are weird for the sake of being weird.
                  Oh, almost forgot, I think the payouts for addiction are for the; REEEEAL drugs- per Homer Simpson.

                    Okay, I won't use REEEEAL drugs. When do I get my check?
