I was trying to find a gif of Kathy Bates ramming the car in Fried Green Tomatoes to insert here, but I didn't have any luck. I decided to go with a different Kathy Bates gif instead.

For you sophisticated hard liquor guys, we need a recommendation for my father-in-law. He turns 70 this month and hubby wants to get him a nice aged something. I asked MIL what he drinks; his favorite is Segrams dark honey. Anything nice along those lines? Not sure what hubby's $ limit is, looking for recommendations first. Thanks!
 
I parked my car in the BART lot and rode the BART into the city to work. Came back to my car that night, and my whole front end was bashed, glass all over the place. No note, nada. Turned my claim in to State Farm, and they paid out (minus my deductable) but it had to be the shop approved by them. Then they raised my premium because I was an "unsafe" driver because my car got hit while parked. I wasn't in the car...I wasn't even in the same city! Changed insurance companies.

I started having tranny issues...broke down in Elko Nevada (don't ever do that - it's the armpit of the universe) as we were on our way to our new home here. Had to have it towed to Salt Lake City (or back to Reno...we figured we might as well go forward) for repairs. They had to replace the tranny. Left the car there, piled me, spouse & 2 boys age 3 & 4 into the cab of a U-Haul with barely functional A/C...in August...for the rest of the trip from Utah to Ames. Spouse went back a week later with a colleague & brought the car to Ames.

How are the two related? Traced back to the repair job...by the "approved shop" that just happened to be owned by the brother of our former agent. Car was hit at a slight angle, shifted things under the hood. Tranny sat just a tiny bit askew, but enough to shear off the bolts. Fluid leaks out, boom. Dead tranny. Dead car. VERY po'd KC.


They prefer transgendered now, KC.

If you're not looking scotch whiskey, my personal opinion is Woodford Reserve. A one of my favorite bourbons and not overly expensive. There's also Woodford Reserve Distillers Select if you want a better, pricier version.

But I don't know of any of the small local ones like some people on here will.

jesus, what is wrong with you?
 
If you were a guy it'd be cleared out not just after you finish with life ;)


ha, every now and then I clear out my home one but I just googled some weird stuff at work. Totally for a legit reason, but I'd probably want to die if someone found it, lol. Sometimes I use my history to re-look up something so that's why I never clear it.
