    Moonshine as a Christmas Gift!

    A nurse friend of my XYL gave me a little Mason jar of Moonshine with a slice of Pear in it. Just cracked it open tonight cuz the wife is in meetings all night. Wow!!! That Pear coulda lasted forever soaking in that stuff. Hell, its going to kill me but my body won't need preserving. My lips burn, my tongue burns, my belly is warm and my eyes keep fogging up.

    A real man would finish it up in one sitting. Are you a real man?
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Decades ago I made my own moonshine. The ingredients were ordinary white sugar and ordinary Fleishmans Double Acting bakers yeast. The equipment it was made in was common laboratory glassware. Once fermented it was distilled in a flask fitted with a water jacketed glass condenser and a Hempel column over a Bunsen burner. No aging, no mellowing, no nothing. The stuff was so intensely potent and so vile I couldn't bring myself to drink it. I did manage a little bit. But a friend of mine did and he liked it. He wanted my to make more but I never did.

    I've had some of that same stuff lately, Mike. The pear and the apple.
    They're awesome right out of the jar...and give you a grinning glow quick-like.
    I usually run into it around NASCAR time.
    enjoy!

    Act like that and it'll have you picking gravel out of the side of your face when you wake up.
