  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I've just discovered whiskey. It's a good thing. Up with whiskey! I think I might even like it better than a nice pint of Smithwick's (which is really tough to beat).

Never did like the hard stuff. Outside of the odd quality scotch here and there. And would never turn down 150 year old Grand Marnier either. :p
A friend turned me on to some really good Kentucky sippin' whiskey the other day. Maker's Mark, the way bourbon should be! :thumbsup:

Yeah, Maker's Mark bes pretty good for rotgut. :)

What's that? Everything you've been talking about is rot gut. Maker's Mark is very good and Bourbon is exceedingly better than those blended sissy whiskies made by Irishmen and Scotsmen (though I don't want to disparage my ancestry:o)

The thing with Bourbon is that even the good bourbons taste like rotgut.

Though Maker's Mark is the least rot-gutty of them

Rangers got bumped in the second round (Penguins), Islanders never made it.

I guess I should be drinking beer to go with my hockey, but I just can't bring myself to drink Molson ;) and it's now too warm to drink warm English ales.

And Stumpy, I'm not sure that there are enough prayers to help the Flyers this season :)

Dearest Loki: while your being has a profound effect on me...you speak harshly about the elixer of life and me thinks ye naive. You don't know the womb in Kentucky from whence it sprang...you are unaware of the damp, humid mornings in the shallow valleys...you are unaware of the red-winged blackbirds that wade through the dew...you are unaware that the slightest breeze can animate cornsilks in their subtle dance...and the Bourbon rests in the burned out Oak, caring for little else.
