Yes, that was confusing the hell out of me!
I kept thinking what the hell does he mean by flights!? Must be a carpenters thing :wink:
lOL Kinda ruins the joke doesnt it? OMG. Hopefully it seems funnier now.
No it adds to the “kickass-ness” I can’t quite remember what it was but I know I’ve seen shit on olde signs that didn’t quite make sense but that’s what was cool about it.
Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.

lol used to take about 1/2 a bottle to get me through an airport and security.

Made perfect sense to me.

i had to go get my pilot's license i hate the airport experience so much.
I finally quit drinking for good.

There's another typo too.

ML should be Ml

But I am a fusspot. It's a nice label.

Same here and I kept thinking to myself “that’s way more than two flights but if it’s on his tab”...

Fusspot?

Ml = Megalitre = 100000 litres
ml / mL = millilitre

Unless his bottle is alarmingly large it should read ml or mL.

Edit to add: For the minute I'm using 7x3cm Avery address labels. I like the idea of larger kraft labels but my current "wine cellar" is the crawl space under the house and the slugs keep eating the labels!

Sorry for the bad posting... I meant to hit edit and instead started talking to myself!

Actually it should read 25.4 ounces, but what are you going to do.
