Drunk Off My Ass AKA My Cop Dad And His Ways (May He RIP)


OK on Halloween I had a go at the beer and finished it. I also had a 2 OZ dram of the Whisky. Now on the 2nd of November I had a LARGE go at the Alberta Premium Whisk. I tend to go time and time again to this whisky. It's cheep, simple and tastes not too bad. It's a good I want to get buzzed off my ass drink. I mean it just tastes good for the small price of it. It came this time with a cowboy boot shaped shot glass - Alberta being Canada's Cowboy Country.

Well I have had a good and hefty pull on this bottle today. I mean I drank half of it. I'm really kind of buzzed to the point that typing this blog is a hard task. Thank God for the spell check or I would be making a lot more mistakes than I am.

What does it taste like? It's a simple and non harsh Rye whisky. I'm sure it's not 100% even though they would have you think it is. I've had actual 100% Rye and it bites like a demon. This stuff is smooth as a shaved beaver. Cough did I just say that? In any event it's at least 50% corn. I might be wrong there, but it really taste about 50% corn and about 50% Rye (maybe some wheat in there).

Pilsner Beer is that stuff day in his rather racist ways said was "an Indian beer". Don't get me wrong dad was a great man and a charitable person that literally gave 20% of what he made to the poor. But he had this thing for natives. Maybe because he was a cop or something... I don't know.

In any event I love this beer, it is not complicated. It's just beer. The strange thing is that the cans and botttles used to have 13 rabbits on them and now there is 2 of them. I got no idea why. I mean they kept the Tee Pee and what now - so why less rabbits?

One other thing I remember from being a kid and going to the liquor store with Dad that the average 12 pack was less than $10 in the 70's now in 2017 it seems it'a almost $30 for a 12 pack. You folks from the USA are going to have a kitten over that I am sure, but we have massive sin taxes up here. Smokes are also like $90 a carton up here - figure out the math on that.

It's to the point I with I was more native so I could get smokes with no taxes on them and sell them to people - oh wait that would be some kind of criminal act - never mind I did not say that LOLS. All kidding aside... For all my Dads dislike of native folks I was adopted and according to the records I am 25% native but not on the fathers side, so No "N Card" for me.

Oh well off to being drunk off my ass and watching stuff on my DVR for me - Have a good day. And don't gudge my Dad harshly - he really was a charitable person who did a LOT for disadvantaged people - it's just when he got with his Cop friends he said a lot of crappy things. It was how cops where here at the time.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

Matilde Vicenzi Cookies Are Great

Image
Was sent these by a good friend for a birthday gift. They are really very good. Quite possibly the best cookies I've had in years. I tried them all, and I like the white one you see in the bottom picture, as it had a lemon taste to it. Some had a bit of liquid chocolate in them and where very good as well. Like normal, the ones with the bit of jam in them where a bit too sticky and chewie. But I seriously enjoyed all of them. These are great. I'm going to look them up on Amazon and if they are not too much money, I'm getting more for Christmas. OK just looked it up and NOPE, it's $28 a can. They are very good, but that is a bit out of my price range. But the usual Christmas Danish Butter Cookies are also kind of a lot of money now as well. They are also a bit moist, and not super dry like usual. Also not powdery like a lot of them do. I'd give these an 8/10 and would recommend highly.

10 Questions Answered

1. How many times have you seen the time as exactly 8:18 am/pm in your life? Almost never. If I did I did not take note of it. 11:11 I always remember as well as 3:33. The middle of the night where all the horror movies have things happen is said to be 3:15am - you have no idea how many times I’ve woken up at 3:15am and looked at my phone. 2. What have you lived long enough to see? The list is rather long, but I’ll try to keep it short. Computers went from filling a room bigger than my apartment, to fitting in our pockets. When I worked in data entry, the entire building was using a 1GB drive that was the size of a stove. Now my 512GB micro SD card is smaller than a fingernail. Medical treatments like Stem Cells are not giving life back to people who would have died when I was younger. Medication I’m on did not exist 15 years ago, and it’s keeping me alive. All manner of medical wonders. Personal space travel. This was fiction when I was young, and now it’s happening. Then there is uns

Had a Great Birthday Lunch

Image
Went out on the 14th for my birthday lunch with friends. It was very enjoyable. I got the Jambalaya pasta and a Doctor Pepper (free refills so I had 3). Because I was celebrating my birthday, I got an ice cream sandwich for free and the "birthday song" sang to me. In the photo you see what my friends got me - Kicking Horse 454 Coffee and Double Chocolate TimTams, and a card. Earlier I posted a review of cookies I was sent by another friend. I also got some silverware. This is literally the first time in my life I have new silverware. I had been using very old ones for many years - at home with my parents, they had an even older set. I also never owned a salad fork LOL. There was no tea spoons with it, so I have older tea spoons still. I tried to look for just tea spoons, but they came in large numbers and I don't need 60 of them, I just want 4. I also got a total of $140 gifted to me by several nice people. I got some stuff I need and a toy I wanted (personal kind of toy)
