**sob** **sob** Hey, it's easy for you jokers to make fun. Bourbon is king in this state, dang it all.
There's about 10 minutes of video from yesterday's news on www.wave3.com --just look for the link to the video of the Jim Beam fire. At the end they show some of the footage of the Heaven Hill fire in 1996; it was much worse and the video is unreal. Enjoy."Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.”

I found this story in three different news sites this morning. :'( I did have a question though. I read that the whiskey had flowed into a nearby creek. I was wondering how many trucks went home with a "full load" onboard?

All humour aside, it is a sad day in the neighbourhood when an incident of this type happens; my glass will be "carried" at half mast in mourning.If you don't do it RIGHT today, when will you have time to do it over? (Hall of Fame basketball player/coach John Wooden)

A dark day in history.............
My Sincere condolences to Mr. Beam and his cousins, Jack Daniels, George Dickel, and Jeremiah Weed. Also to their uncle, Old Grandad, and his sidekick, Kentucky Gentleman. And Also, the family pet, Wild Turkey.

Jim Beam was killed in a lightning strike yesterday, in attendance at his funeral were close friends Johnny Walker, Jack Daniels, Jose Cuervo and Yukon Jack, who said he flew in from northwestern Canada as soon as he got word of the tragedy.

Check out a Rumor.........
Some who were in attendance at this horrible tragedy thought they observed an aberration in the water supply shuttle scheme. It seemed that undispatched tankers were arriving EMPTY and leaving FULL. Strange.......

Gentlemen:
I regret to inform you that to the price of bourbon will now fluctuate in a manner similar to the price of gasoline.
Long lines will form at liquor stores as we wait for the latest delivery of that amber colored elixir from the Great state of Kentucky (by armored truck I might add).
It is truely a sad day.
