Are you really going to make me say I remember? I will top that one with this one, the last Euell Gibbons joke told on Johnny Carson was: The Euell Gibbons family celebrated their Christmas by sitting around the tree and they ate it.

Now you have to be a certain age to remember Johnny Carson.

Somewhere there's a dejected Jack Parr fan shaking his fist and wheezing, "Ya dad burned whippersnappers!"

Thanks for the laughs, Papaphilly and J :-)

Just for the record, Jack is PAAR. I had to do it because my kids' last name is Parr.

Sorry, Autocorrect caught me when I wasn't looking.

My recommendations kicked up an article on a liquor of which I have no experience.

Starka

It sounds interesting. Does anyone have experience with it?

Haven't, but sounds interesting enough to try..
They describe it as similar to Calvados, which I wasn't crazy about, but hopefully Starka can be better.
