Jack, when I saw your original post that you had spent "only" $3 at the beer store, I though to myself, "man, he must be cutting back, or he is buying REALLY cheap beer.. did he just buy a single quart can of Colt .45 or something?

Seriously, I did not mean to make fun of you earlier.... I probably buy just as much at :the beer store: as you (just not with dollar coins and halfs!).

Kevin.

No blood, no foul

Beer Zero.

Can't end on an odd number.

If you finally end on a 0 you go to work the next day and remember why you spend halves and dollar coins

OG Triple OG raised on 40oz.

Try and find a Colt .45 or Big Bear 64oz or some Private Stock or some St. Ides today. Same with coins. Ask any regular person about wheat cents or buffalo nicked or Ikes and be prepared for the mean mug in return.

A Generation lost: applies to all hobbies.

Well, as long as it is in a "shatter-proof" plastic bottle, then everybody will be OK!!

I think with that picture we just got a glimpse into jack's life: God only knows how many half dollars (which I assume will be dumped on Sears), some pennies, and some "fine" malt liquor

Jack Jeckel is my new hero.

PS: I REALLY do not want to know what is in the cigar box!
