The JD made me think of my second useless fact of the day.
If you ask for a bourbon and coke in many Asian countries you are quite likely to get a JD and coke. I've discovered that it makes no difference if you try to argue, you get JD and coke.
Last year on a cruise ship, I discovered this even extends to English owned liners (P&O) who employ Asian heads of department. JD was all you could get. Don't get me wrong, I like JD very much, but it's not strictly speaking, bourbon. An 'old fashioned' just isn't the same with JD.
About the only bourbon you can get in Bangkok airport duty free is Jim Beam white label. No Bookers, no Basil Haydens, no Bulleit, no joy. Much puzzlement.
i have never known the difference between bourbon/whiskey or the different kinds (and i was a bartender at one point LOL)...i know my friend drinks jameson when we go to shows (music) and it smells deathly strong and that my stepdad drank VO/water my entire childhood....seagram's 7 if he was desperate...my friend that passed recently graduated from Zima/beer to Crown.....my exbf who was always the "connoisseur" of anything he fancied (which changed depending on the crowd

) was all into fancy expensive whiskey last i spoke to him....all that and i still don't know the diff or get the appeal but when smokie showed his bottle of Toasted Caramel whiskey i was like..."ooh i want that!" ....still haven't even looked for it LOL
This was covered already and I missed it.
If I offended or insulted anyone I am sincerely sorry.
I re-read many of my previous posts and couldn't find anybody mentioned by name.
I'm a snarky Snarf so it could have happened without me noticing. Anyways, apologies.
i am so paranoid that any time anyone gets scolded i go "oh crap...was it me? did i say something bad OR something that could be taken badly that wasn't *my* intention?" BUT...that being said...
i have had some rude/disrespectful stuff said TO me on ECF....i didn't complain....i didn't cry...i just took that person off of my radar *shrug*
the "internet" makes it super easy to be overtly rude and cheap entertainment for ppl to intentionally waste other's time AND act a fool....a troll used to be a mythical creature that lived under bridges.....
(i'm probably just rambling without any real point LOL)
I believe in you. Soldering is easy...
soldering is stupid easy....i used to solder components onto circuit boards when i was bored at one of my first jobs...and then i would have dreams of HUGE solder mountains (circuit board solder looks like baby hershey's kisses....) LOL
ok...i have to admit my A.D.D. kicked in for the rest of the catching up and i had to just skim.....
all that stuck....
the calabash mod....i think they meant that you couldn't replace the coil/atty in the clearo that came with the great pumpkin...
oh and that little stand with the clips and the magnifying glass.....has anyone used that for wrapping coils?
