WWUJD

Post by cannon.co.tn »

I am down visiting family in So-Cal and saw one of those WWJD bumper for the first time in a long while.

The first thing that popped into my head was WWUJD (What would Uncle Jesse Distill.)

I chuckled under my breath which immediately got my wife's attention. After explaining why I was laughing I got that universal sign we all know.... The Rolled Eyes....

Don't worry. This sort of thing happens to all of us. (Myself in particular.)

A while ago, somebody asked me if I listened to that lone white rapper, Eminem, (not to make any racial comments/stereotypes here.)
Anyway, the person said it like "M an' M", and that confused me for several hours, so I just replied with a confused no and had to look it up on the internet later that night, which took a while, until I tried spelling it phonetically. (A central Ohioan dialect is sort of confusing sometimes, even to a native. :shock: )
And I still don't know who he is!

And yes, I prefer WWUJD also.

Jesus would turned the water into wine and there were be a lot of half full goats skins at the wedding. If it were distilled to spirits I couldn't tell you but "Waste not, want not..":
But it is told thus of the firs miracle:
In the room six very large stone water-jars stood on the floor (actually for the Jewish ceremonial cleansing), each holding about twenty gallons. Jesus gave instructions for these jars to be filled with water, and the servants filled them to the brim. Then he said to them, "Now draw some water out and take it to the master of ceremonies", which they did. When this man tasted the water, which had now become wine, without knowing where it came from (though naturally the servants who had drawn the water knew), he called out to the bridegroom and said to him, "Everybody I know puts his good wine on first and then when men have had plenty to drink, he brings out the poor stuff. But you have kept back your good wine till now!" Jesus gave this, the first of his signs, at Cana in Galilee (the second is healing the official's dying son later in John 4:43). He demonstrated his power and his disciples believed in him.

Water to wine...hmmm . I can't seem to get anything without a bit of sugar. But the fermentation does seem like a miracle. Distillation is just technology. No miracle there.

there's as much in the Bible about not drinking as there is about drinking. Jesus wouldn't be impressed by a bunch of home-distilling lushes such as ourselves i'm afraid.

Muslims, on the other hand, tend not to drink much but we owe them for keeping the art of distillation alive while the Europeans were enjoying the ignorant bliss of the Dark Ages. i had an offer to go help start a distillery in India once, I guess Hindus drink plenty, might be a belief system worth checking out.

and WWJD is What Would Jesse Distill? and of course the answer is enough sour mash for us all to have plenty before working on something else. Plus you don't get saddled with any superstition when you follow in my footsteps!

Goose, you usually have all of the answers, but few can understand your syntax. I can get the gist of what yore usually sayin', but all of the details are blurry.

I don't think that this thread has turned religious, yet. It's when we argue about who's beliefs are superior to others when forums need locked.

Holy Shit!!! Why do we have to even think about who has the best god, and there are have been many, many, many of them over the past three million years to answer the unanswerable questions in life.

I personally blame all of the gods when a brew goes wrong and none of them seem to care. :)
