But there goddamn well better be bourbon on the shelves when I need it.

My local grocery store had no paper products, flour, rice, potatoes or bread. They did have a fully stocked liquor area. I availed myself to a bottle of cheap rum, Dewar’s Scotch and Tito’s Vodka. I’m realizing I need more booze, even though I have two growlers and over 20 cans of beer. And no, I don’t have a drinking problem. Yet. But I’m working on it. I have to do something during this crisis.

I have an almost full bottle of cask strength Makers along with a nice Westland peated but somehow I've managed to run low on Scotch. I have failed in my emergency planning.

I read too much news and had to go start loading magazines. I felt better afterwards.

Yeh I don’t have a drinking problem either, but I’m tempted to create one (though this is really the first time I’ve drank since shit hit the fan).

I’ve got half a dozen bottles of various bourbon, 3-4 more Irish whiskeys, another 6-8 bottles of gin, tequila, vodka etc, a case or so of beer, and, ummm, maybe 60-80 bottles of wine.

So I should make it to April 1 or so.

Was just reading the thread between you and Chariot- for my 0.02, I'd probably assess whether he was losing it and/or too heavily influenced by fake news, and interfere if I felt the answer was yes to either, and let it be if that’s just who he's always been. But that's me -- not you. Do what you think is right. Best wishes to all of you and stay safe!

Been thinking that I should learn to shoot a gun, but maybe it's too late...

See my response to Deal Killer, but I have enough to tide me over for a bit. However, it’s not necessarily what I want.

I feel like we’re about to get a shelter in place order- cases in the state have tripled in 2 days, a neighboring town has issued a SIP order, and I’m 3 miles from the next nursing home debacle (42 cases in the last 3 days in 1 building).

Better stock up tomorrow!

Stay safe!

Call your local range and demand they mail you a firearm because you don’t want to leave your house. It should be fun to hear their reaction.

Shotgun would fit the bill.

We were watching the news and my wife asked me if I had cleaned the handguns lately.

My wife’s a school teacher and can be hard to rattle. That comment might have been the most unnerving thing I heard this w eek.

Which town issued the SIP order? I have been avoiding the news like they’re the virus.

We're good to go on food, but perhaps I'll run out this morning and get some extra booze for my wife. I don't drink ... Although maybe I should start.

Oak Park - I think it’s because 2 ER doctors tested positive.

How are you doing? We are well - just a little stir crazy, and my wife is pretty freaked out, she has a partner and a nurse in her practice that were exposed to confirmed cases at one hospital. They closed her office for a while.

Liquor store by me was short of Vodka and most darks, but not rum or Jae ger. Thankfully I only like rums and Jae ger.

I’ve been home five days with my wife and 9 year old twins.

It is inevitable I WILL have a drinking problem at some point.

I’m making my last run for myself and my mother tomorrow. Just tried Four Roses Monday, so I’m getti ng one more thi ng of that, and a few choice beers enjoy. We’ll be good on the i nevitable “ prohibition” for a couple months.

I wonder if people are drinking the vodka or making hand sanitizer?

Probably both.

So Four Roses is good? I haven't tried it.

I like this stuff a lot! It’s smoother than Evan Williams 1783 for a couple dollars more . My benchmark (lol) for under $20 has been Evan Williams Bottled-in-Bond 100 proof. For $22, this blows my go-to bourbons outta the water unless I want something cheap (under $15) to not go too far into my good stuff.

Hmm I’ll have to try it thanks!
