The best bourbon and ginger beer combo for a Kentucky Mule is:
Four Roses “Yellow Label”
Fever Tree Ginger Beer
Add a half ounce of Cointreau to make it a Paris, KY mule.
I’ve tried a lot of different combos. This is the one.

If it is not just behind drop ceilings or something they might want to consider Cat6. Don’t want to have to cut into walls when the ISP offers a multi-gig connection.

I happened to have a bottle of bourbon a Bitcoiner friend of mine wanted. I didn’t need the cash at the time and still felt stupid for ignoring another friend that tried to get me to buy around 2012 so I asked for payment in BTC. I checked it from time to time until COVID and then decided to increase my allocation when the price fell. Been adding since. So… bourbon is the reason I hold BTC, I guess.

I’m not sure I understand the question well enough to answer appropriately. When I made the call I didn’t really have good information on outcomes in those that got the jab vs those that did not. So in a strict statistical sense, no. For me it was simply that I was not in a vulnerable demographic so a less than 1% chance of death vs unquantifiable risk associated with medical intervention for which there is no long term data. To me, the math said I should take my chances. I still don’t fault those that saw the equation differently.

I’ve heard some call Bitcoin a lifeboat and I think the analogy makes sense. I guess my reverse ask would be do you want McDonalds or whatever on that lifeboat? I don’t.

I sold TVs at a Sears back when I was in high school and employees got commission on sales. Back then at least the people selling appliances did alright. Went back after college and it was a ghost town. I imagine they were doomed either way, but always wondered if dropping commissions hastened their demise.

Apropos of nothing, I used to like a song called Bitcoin Beezy. The final line of the chorus is something like “I’ve got 50 Bitcoin worth about a hundred grand” in the outro one the artists expresses a similar sentiment to the one you’ve expressed here so my guess is that, if they actually had the coin, they sold. Today that stack is worth around 4.5 million.

I’m not much of a diet weed guy, but the idea that the Bourbon industry needs protection is beyond laughable. There is a THRIVING secondary market for the stuff. In fact, it’s the only way you can get bottles like Pappy or Weller without knowing the right people or winning a lottery. Correction is what is needed here, not protection.
