Little or nothing to do with distillation.

Anyone read Irvine Welsh? Author of Trainspotting among others. I've read Trainspotting, Filth, and Porno (the actual titles of the books... haha). They're written in English, but in a rugged Scottish dialect. Takes about half a chapter to pick up on the cadence and slang of it all, but well worth it. Very unique and, great story telling.

Tap. Out.

Woodshed, one of my favorite books on running is Personal Record by Rachel Toor.
It is a compilation of short stories about running. Pure candy, short and sweet and leaves you with a quick little high.
There is no such thing as a stupid question....... Unless you didn't research it first.

Just finished Larry McMurtrys "Anything For Billy". It's a fun quick read,written like a dime store novel.

That's why you are a master, Flatwoods... Anyone can make a lap through the Karma Sutra, but someone who understands that it takes a lifetime to perfect "the maelstrom of head", that is someone that can make good hooch!
