Sounds like the perfect place to go after work this Friday. I'm on campus and only 2 blocks away. Go Dawgs.

I can see how it would sneak up on you!
Surprsingly, I didn't have a hangover the morning after your party. I couldn't believe it!

51-7.Ah, a Dawg fan. As your communications skills seem to be limited, permit me to be of assistance:
LOL. Actually, I attended UGA myself for one summer while I was in high school. My son-in-law just graduated from there. Add to that a sister-in-law, a sister, and her husband, so I can play both sides of the street. Actually, I've been very impressed at the quality of UGA of late, but don't quote me on that.
I spent a very enjoyable week in Athens for the 4th of July for my daughter's wedding. I wish I'd known about the place - I would have dropped in.

You and me both, brother! Have you ever tried Sleepy Hollow? P.S...M1911A1 is the only way to go.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Used to drink Wild Turkey until I discovered the French own it, I've since switched to Maker's Mark.
Keep the newer M1991A1 next to my bed myself.
SCOUTS OUT!

It's a very small batch. I'm not sure who bottles it, but an old college buddy of mine in Bowling Green gets it quite often. I'll check with him then FReepmail the info to you. This stuff is so good, if you drink a shot in fewer than five sips, you're not savoring it enough.

I LOVE your tagline! My first assignment was with B Trp, 1-2 ACR back in 1985-6. "Always Ready, Always First" was our motto.
If you like Maker's (also called Kentucky Champagne), you'll love Booker's, Blanton's, or the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow. No, I'm not a salesman, but I bartended my way through college in Kentucky, so I got to sample a lot of what the state has to offer. Beam, Turkey, Heaven Hill, etc...ugh! Mix that crap with iced tea just to kill the taste of the so-called bourbon.

Simple question...
Are we as Americans expected to completely erase our past and heritage simply because someone might be offended?
Where is the logic in this? It will never end. Someone will always be offended by something.
What did the world have to say when the Taliban in Afghanistan was blowing up the Buddhist statues?
What would we have to say if Egypt tommorow decided to destroy the pyramids and all of their rich history and heritage because it is offensive to Islam?

"All I know is when the Jagermeister comes out after midnight its gonna get ugly." You got that right. In more ways than one.
To: wku man
My next to last assignment was B Troop 11/11th ACR 1982-85 in the Fulda Gap. It was a demanding but rewarding assignment. The Cav has a way of pushing you to your limits.
SCOUTS OUT!

Amen brother!....blacks got no room to talk about this kind of thing.....when my daughter was at Chapel Hill, blacks had to have their own Student Union, supported at University expense of course.....had their own Black Law Student association too, funded by the school naturally....had their own prom dance too, funded by the school......at least these guys in Athens are expressing cultural pride on their OWN nickel.....I wish 'em well.

An unforgivable mortal sin is defined as adulterating sweet tea like this .
