I used to think that this was the case, but apparently it isn’t true (from a legal sense, anyway). If the whiskey is distilled and aged in a prescribed way (I believe using 51% corn and aged in new, charred, oak barrels). By order of Congress, any similar whiskey distilled outside of the US cannot be sold as Bourbon.

Well, this is Rennlist. Recall the fictitious thread about light bulbs, the proper term is a lamp.

At least some things in this world today are normal - I'm at a point where I'll take what I can get.

Hendricks is the preferred gin of the Chief Martini Maker Emeritus of Texas World Speedway.

I’ve converted many Vodka drinkers to the correct way to drink a Martini.

Postponed was the keyword on PCA GGR web site, but they confess, they don't know when it will occur. This was to be a 105 dB event.....very few weekends with this sound level allowed during the year.

Let's just hope for events in May going forward. I had no idea how badly I would miss my track days. The only good thing? My car expenses are very, very low. Wifey is pleased, not me.

LS is canceled not postponed. Minimal potential for obtaining a date later in the year.
