Century-old scotch? That’s enticing enough that even Ted Kennedy will dig out of his grave to get his hands on.

For scotch? Wouldn't a Kennedy drink Irish?

Shackleton was one of the greatest leaders of all time. Read the story of his expedition and then think of weak metrosexuals that women and their feminized men elect.

It’s how they kept warm. After a few shots, the northern lights looked reeeal good.

Probably not very good hooch by this time, but I'd gladly hoist a glass to toast explorers who really took their fate into their own hands. May their tribe prosper.

Real men and explorers...Not today’s worry warts over climate change and the “feelings” of animals and plants.
