The destroyed Bourbon was not even a year old........so no real lose for Jim Beam as insurance will cover fire damage.

BUT what I wonder how will the Fish survive all that Bourbon in the creek that runs through the property......lol

 

Drunk to the gills

 

Well marinated I'd guess.

That was a funny book.

 

It was. And it REALLY pissed off a lot of folks.

I remember they even made a very short-lived TV show called Ball Four.

 

Denise Nickerson, 62.

You know her better as Violet Beauregarde.

 

Believe it or not, as a sophomore in high school, I turned in a book report on that book. You should have seen the look I got from the teacher when he read the title of the book. I looked at him and smiled and said, " I was careful how I wrote this". The teacher looked back at me and said "You better be. I read it too."

 

Walt Michaels. Former Head Coach of the New York Jets. Age: 89.

Michaels - 1977 to 1982
Walker - 1977 to 1989
