    Old Crow, Bookers, Bakers, Knob, Old Grand-dad, and Basil Hayden come from Beam. Makers is also Beam, but it's a wheated bourbon.

    I toured Maker's last month. While they were in shutdown mode, they do, in fact just make Maker's there. It isn't Beam.

    That said, I've yet to find any manufacturer that makes bourbon better than the folks at Buffalo Trace. I would be a happy man if all I ever drank was Blanton's and W. L. Weller.

    Pepe Nero is a fine Italian restaurant where they make great pizza. However a bottle of Old Parr might be better. Still interested?

    He use to train every day, he still does from time to time, however I submit there are enough hazards in life to overcome with out making your own.

    You and me have been down this track before. I would suggest that a thorough investigation of this claim be made by you before making such a statement, you see there is only one and I do mean only one opportunity this side of the fence of eternity to find out, if I am wrong then you having nothing to loose, however If I am right your are in deep shit. As a coach you have the responsibility to encourage more from your trainees and you can see the potential in successful weight lifters even if they themselves cannot.

    I see in you great potential, don't waste it Mark.

    Thank you, wal. You have potential yourself, if you can learn to think more clearly.

    C'mon wal. Heaven and Valhalla are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Otherwise I might get bored listening to the good church ladies harping away on their clouds.

    If it doesn't give you a blowjob ever day from the day you buy it until the day you die, you're overpaying.

    I'm atheist, so I guess the gift of eternal damnation awaits.

    That's a good one.

    Epicurus has one of my favorites;

    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
    Then he is not omnipotent.
    Is he able, but not willing?
    Then he is malevolent.
    Is he both able and willing?
    Then whence cometh evil?
    Is he neither able nor willing?
    Then why call him God?

    I once attempted to read the bible in it's entirety. At about Leviticus is where I had to put it down. Highly detailed instructions on proper animal sacrifice, and stonings. No thanks.
    Can't your hidden invisible friend make himself visible so I can see him?
