Manfred, we still have loads of Makers Mark bourbon from that time we kidnapped housed General Jack. Dixie was a really good friend to him that day.

Also, just so you know Manfred, there is a sawed off double barrel 12ga with a pistol grip and an Aluminum baseball bat that has been loaded with lead shot in the end under the bar, and I'll show you the other room in the back that's got the majority of the rest of our arsenal in it, including a General Electric 7.62 minigun. Needless to say, we are prepared for most anything.

If you ever forget your keys, Parrot has a set. He hasn't been around too much lately though.

Also, active duty Military members' first rounds are free, and 1/2 off the first to veterans.

Man, I'm very glad to have you. I hope you enjoy the job.

Folks, make sure to tip your bartender.

Wait a second,
Why is my name on here? I'm confused. I thought i was a loyal customer to this dump

A few months ago you had to take money from the CAC coffers and go with me to Loretto, KY and buy a truckload of Makers Mark to pay the ransom on your dear General Jack. He tried to raid the place, but Mrs Lou pulled the shotgun, Richy tied him up, and he went for a trip at sea until you and I got back with the booze.

You'll have to go back several pages, but it's all there. It was shortly after the night you tried to back your pickup truck up to the front door and load up booze from our storeroom.

Don't worry though, you are still welcome here. All that high dollar Kentucky bourbon bought a lot of forgiveness

Ohh boy. You must have erased my memory. I'm not sure i want to go to this place anymore lol

Would there be any chance of a stool at this bar for lil ole me, I promise to leave the sheep outside, well unless you want to chuck one in for roasting of course and mines a J&B with a splash of American Ginger. Great music in here too!
Oh and if I ever ask for a Vodka......don't!!

Absolutely Muck. You can bring the sheep inside too. All of the MOMs get real excited when they come in for some reason... I'll tape a note to the register stating "Muck = NO VODKA". That should at least limit the next day apologies.

It's not so much the next day as the next week!! A few glasses never seems to be enough

No worries man. As page 1 states, what happens here, stays here. So, you should be ok.

This is perfect... Well maybe a few less cowboy hats.

I spent most of my youth under a cowboy hat. I spend most of my time that I'm not working under a Tilley now. My headset for my phone doesn't fit over it well, so a ball cap is the order of the day while working.

Anyway, cowboy hats are always welcomed here.

One more song on the jukebox while I'm over here.

Oh yes love me some of that or some county fair or Cadillac ranch

Let's go back a few years into the Ledoux catalog. This one seems silly, until you hear it at 3 in the morning on an empty road.

One last Chris Ledoux song. It has a sheep reference in it, so the MOMs ought to love it.

And now for a change of pace. Joan Osborne with the Funk Brothers (minus obviously James Jamerson) doing the old Martha and the Vandellas "Heatwave" This is from the documentary Standing in the Shadow of Motown. I really enjoyed the documentary, and highly recommend it. I'm not usually a big fan of remakes, but I thought she knocked this one out of the ballpark. Speaking of.... D@mn Cubs beat my Cardinals today.

And finally... Last post for the evening. May we present the 2013 St Louis Cardinals All-Stars!

Hey jack, seeing as I'm an official staff member now......do I get to pour my own drinks?

Jacks, I thought for sure we'd be running low on something by now, but that storage room is stocked silly! It's a whole warehouse packed in a back office. You must know people in the trucking business.

If you say it's ok, I think Jacob can pour his own drinks. But don't give him a key to the storage room! In fact, I'm kind of nervous having my own key, so I stuck it in... an inner pocket. No one's gonna get it off of me

This place rocks! And I've emptied my tip jar a bunch of times already. We need to report just the U.S. currency, right?

Oh... I'm sure that we can find a way around most of that pesky "reporting". As far as the back room goes... If you go through that last steel door on the left, you will find that we are actually connected to a real warehouse. We also have a truck dock. I put a picture of it on here a few months back. Now if you follow the very narrow gravel road on down towards the water you'll see about a half dozen Quonset huts back in the trees. You'll also find that there are paved roads connecting thru the woods to the more visible road that leads to the docks where the JR Trixie and the JR Pixie (yes, named after MOMs favorite sheep) tie up. All of that is owned by Whodat? Holdings, the parent corp of Jolly Roger Industries LLC. There are a few more corporations in the ownership ladder here, but that's another story...

Anyway... Yea, Jacob can pour his own drinks, and you can have whatever you wish. Just keep it together enough to know what's going on around here.

Alright. You had an awesome first night, and it looks like you are set to enjoy a long and profitable employment at the Jolly Roger. We're glad to have you.

George Washington's distillery. ..I must've passed by this a million times but it just hit me, this nations 1st president and founding father realized long ago, in order to lay the foundations for the no1 country in the world, he was going to need whiskey. .lots and lots of good whiskey

I need a drink...I'm gutted, that wasnt the fairy dance dent was doing and I gave it a 9.5 score make that two drinks two doubles...no on second thought make it 3....ah sod it just leave the bottle but take the cap away!

Oh and Manfred you best hold on to my wallet for me, take what you need, yeah yeah, I know about the cobwebs.

Here is a little gift for the Jolly Roger.
(Jacklpe, PM me and I will send you the original, high resolution version of this drawing).

You best be drinking *before* you fly with Dent. Here's a bottle and a glass. Not sure what's in it, but the skull and crossbones looks promising. If you don't feel well, washroom is in the back.
Manfred

Ped that drawling is so cool. I think you hit it out of the park. Just perfect

Pedrinho, I'm grinning from ear to ear!!!! I can't find the words to tell you how much I appreciate you drawing that for me. All I can say is that I really really appreciate that, and it's immediately going to page 1. You are just too kind.

Thanks,

Dave

I watched a pretty fun show done by Mike Rowe the other day on how Alchohol helped shape America. That falls right in line. I've got to go tour Mt Vernon some day.

Lol Ped, I didn't see the cartoon strip on the bottom when I read your post on my phone earlier. Outstanding! Maybe your drawings will help my wife understand why I like this game.
