One right hand thread, one left hand thread, and the third one is straight thread?
The 3rd is dual direction thread.

Don't get too technical. You'll confuse Alpo and Subdeacon Joe will look for a dozen YouTube videos to explain it to him.
Hey! Only SIX!
Unless one of them refers to a whozewhanger. Never have found a good one about those.

We still occasionally get mail from the elderly lady we did senior care for before she passed away 14 years ago.
From the USMC.
Trying to recruit her.

Concept.
Replace the toast with hash browns, put an egg on top of the tomato, then top with the sauce.

From the point of view of a Christmas card that is used to small spaces?
It was probably nervous by the fire.

Since most people younger than me don't send Christmas cards much, I am picturing this as a nice little old lady, maybe a couple, and now they can go to the next gathering with their lucky hat on and lucky deck to play pinochle with a cup of coffee, door key on a VERY distinctive keychain they won't lose.
Be sure to write something different on each card. Wax poetic about how good fire roasted jackalope is. And the lovely song of the javelin as they perch on the cholla at sunset.

Who said I was a hard core traditionalist? 🙄
Yeah, I'm not either. But Christmas runs until Theophany(12th Night).

Nope. Not until Theophany at the earliest. Hard-core traditionalists hold out until Candlemas/Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple.

If its distilled in the US it wouldnt be effected by tarriffs.
Exports. Other countries slapping huge tariffs on importing it.

In an effort to combat what I said above. It's ridiculous.
And then there's the pre-mixed cocktails which cost 10x more than doing it yourself. I suppose they sell because they're still there.
Yep. But also trying to rid the market trends towards lighter tasting drinks.

I doubt that tariffs played much of a role in the decision to shut down one distillery.

Jim Beam said the decision to pause bourbon making at its Clermont location in 2026 will give the company time to invest in improvements at the distillery.
I think those two things, overproduction and deferred maintenance, are the major factors. Sales of distilled spirits is down across the boards, and marketing projections from several years ago were wrong. Have you noticed that Jim Beam has been introducing more flavored bourbons over the past few years? Heck, they trotted out a Pineapple Bourbon.
I have a feeling that the writers or editors tossed in the tariffs first ti make it seem as if they are the main reason, and, of course, blame President Trump.
