I don't know anyone that makes alcohol. People in the Appalachian mountains of the South have no concept, knowledge, reason, or desire to make their own alcohol or alcohol to distribute. Nope, we know nothing about anything like that. We just sit around on the porch and play banjos all day.

It's pretty cool, haven't had a chance to actually go over when they have been using the distiller, but I have been able to help them make liquor, which they actually buy the alcohol for. They make the schnapps though, would be cool to witness some time.

They put gravel and salt down on the road in the county next to mine when we had ice the other day (I'm right on the line) but luckily the gravel was light and most of it got pushed off. There are still white spots where the salt was down.
I took the 500 out for a cruise today against my better judgement, but I couldn't resist as nice as it was. It did scare the poo out of me for a moment one time. I hit the on ramp to a freeway at about 50 in 3rd gear. Three lanes of traffic was moving at 70-80 mph and I had to merge into it. I matted it in 3rd and it was in a turn approaching a concrete surface bridge. I had the hammer down headed for the fast lane, when I hit the bridge in that turn at about 70 with the supercharger howling it broke loose and got squirrely for a second. Gave me a bit of an adrenalin rush till it came back in line. Might have been ugly if the TC/Stability control hadn't been on.

I did have to buy a tag sticker (or tab as Nate calls it) a few weeks ago. Bastards clipped me for a $450 ad velorem tax on it for the year.

Our bad weather down here is so few and far between that I can pretty much drive it year round. Just a few occasions where things are to ****ty for me to get it out, so I have to keep insurance year round.

That's great. I bought tags (or tabs) for 5 cars a few weeks ago. It should have come with lube because I feel like I've been ****ed. Damned near $2K for some decal stickers to put on the tags.

Damned I've got some serious pains in my lower back, in the kidney area. I'm really hurting back there. You'd think it would be my liver that was acting up, not my kidneys.
Sonofabtich, I'm in pain. I'd almost go to the doctor if it weren't for the fact that I don't go to the doctor.

But these pains are definitely not back related, they are internal organ type pains.
I know the pains you are talking about all too well. Some days I can't even get up, and I have to get someone to help me tie my shoes when its really bad because I can't bend over far enough to do it. Good think I wear flip flops most of the time and that I have a little guy that thinks its great that he can help daddy out by putting his shoes on.

I would probably go to the doc if it felt like it was organ pain. Finally got them to do an x-ray on my back last year. Doc mentioned arthritis and degeneration, two words I didn't really want to hear. Then gave me the good/bad news. Good: Don't need surgery, Bad: Going to have pain the rest of your life. Almost would have rather him tell me they were going to do surgery, but it would take care of the pain.

They always ask us "Do you drink?" and the answer is always ocassionally. One or two a week, maybe. They get so hung up on if we drink it's crazy. Not a big fan of going to the doc anyway, but I have to think about when I retire too. If I actually have issues it needs to be in my records.

Been there, done that a few times. The stretching helps some, this pain has been in a new area. And sitting all day doesn't help, especially for 12hrs. Getting ocassional spasms too, so much fun!!
