I decided to pour myself some bourbon and write about our recent vacation. Mrs. Alphageek decided to come visit me one weekend in between working. We had a lot of fun taking in the sights where she grew up. Some folks think where she grew up is a society area, but she claims it was not so. We saw some really big houses around the corner where she grew up, but she says they must be new.

I once called Mrs. Alphageek and exclaimed into the phone "there's poo everywhere!". A dog pooed in the yard and I stepped in the poo. It was cold outside (good) so I did not smell the poo. Once I got in the car and the car heated up (bad) the poo began to smell very bad. That is when Mrs. Alphageek got the call.

In honor of this phone call, I took this picture at the Franklin Mineral Museum in Franklin, NJ. This is a picture of poo fossils. I took several more that I will be posting later, so you may wish to check back later for more information.

Basil Hayden's Bourbon

in
Now it is time for a bourbon review. While writing about other ideas while drinking bourbon is pretty fun, it is more fun to drink the bourbon. I am often asked what kind of bourbon I like besides Wild Turkey. While I think Wild Turkey Rare Breed is my favorite, I do enjoy some other bourbons from time to time.

Pictured is a bottle of Basil Hayden's Bourbon. This bottle was given to me by my father-in-law, Big Dick. Most people can't call their father-in-law Big Dick, but mine said it is what he wants to be called. As you can see in the picture, I have already enjoyed most of the bourbon. I decided to take this picture before I finished the bottle.

Basil Hayden's is a more mild taste than Wild Turkey. I would say more mild, but not smoother. It also has a little less body than Wild Turkey as well. Pretty sophisticated review eh?

All in all, if you are looking to get me present, this is a fine bourbon for you to purchase. I will take just about any bourbon, as long as it does not have jefferson in the name.
