What these rich pampered elites have not yet fathomed out is those tough, highly paid highly skilled EX SFErs they have as bodyguards also have families. So when TSHTF They rich elite are likely to find themselves evicted and being stuck alone between the Ex SFERs and the Preppers on one hand, and the millions of starving sheeple they promised to care for on the other side.

Never really developed a taste for beer even though I drink it my preference is Bourbon, Whiskey/Scotch Whisky, Taquilla. Never developed a taste for wine though the closes relations to wine I do drink from time to time is Brandy.

 

[Silent Earth]

Navy Rum, Southern Comfort and IRISH whisky is my taste.

 

[Maverick]

My oldest Whisky is Ballantines scotch whisky purchased back around mid 1960s I have about 11 4/5qt bottles though Lisa likes and drinks Glenfiddich scotch whisky

 

[Silent Earth]

Never liked Scotch, tastes like Gasoline to me.

have been Tea(in my case Coffee) total for the last 15 years, but I do like a drop of Cider or Newcastle Brown Ale( know as "Newkie" in these parts).
