Keep in mind, here in Rocklin, we don't have it "that" much better most of the year. Will be 110° Sat and who knows what the rest of the summer brings. (it's east of Sac)

Many people don't realize that Col. Sanders once auditioned for Alice Cooper to be the band's drummer. Unfortunately for the Col. he did not get the job because he kept eating the drumsticks.

Biscuits!I'm glad we cleared THAT up.

"You have to work hard to deserve to drink it. But I would rather have a bottle of Ballantine Ale than any other drink after fighting a really big fish. When something has been taken out of you by strenuous exercise Ballantine puts it back in. We keep it iced in the bait box with chunks of ice packed around it. And you ought to taste it on a hot day when you have worked a big marlin fast because there were sharks after him. You are tired all the way through. The fish is landed untouched by sharks and you have a bottle of Ballantine cold in your hand and drink it cool, light and cull-bodied, so it tastes good long after you have swallowed it. That's the test of an ale with me: whether it tastes as good afterwards as when it's going down. Ballantine does." — Ernest Hemingway, ad for Ballantine AleWell, he'll sell no wine before it's time, ......... wait.............
