OK, due to a database glitch this site has been down for over a week. Not that it took that long to fix it, but my day job has been keeping me busy.

I basically had to load the tables of the database one at a time. I am sure that there are some missing images and other problems that still need to be addressed, but the main part of the site is back up.

I went to the liquor store today and bought some whiskey. I usually buy it once a year or less because it is the best medicine on the planet for the cold and flu and I make sure we have some on hand every winter. If you don’t already know, whiskey is better than any other medicine out there with the possible exception of NyQuil (keep in mind that NyQuil is 50 Proof), if I’m really bad off I’ll do one shot of each.

The bad thing about it is that when you’re not sick, whiskey tastes great (I like it anyway) but when you’re sick, really sick, to where it will help you, it is the most horrid thing you could taste at that point. But it works so well that if you can just get it down, you will feel so much better and become a believer. I’ve never had to do more than two shots at one time to get relief and one is usually enough.

I was once sick and had no whiskey or NyQuil, but I had plenty of beer. I drank 6 or 7 beers trying to get the relief that the whiskey had given me in the past. I got drunk, but I still felt sick so I know it is not just the alcohol, there is something else in the whiskey that relieves the cold and flu symptoms.

We refer to it as “Grandpa’s Medicine” at my house, although I didn’t get this remedy from my grandfather, I honestly can’t remember where I first heard about it, I just know that it works.
