I COULD NOT CARE LESS....

I have many pet peeves but one that really gets me is, "I could care less". Let me break this down for you. Saying I could care less by definition means that you care, regardless of the magnitude of your caring, you do in fact care.
The proper wording is as follows, "I could not care less" or for those pressed for time, "I couldn't care less. The later will of course save you little to no time if you are typing or texting your disregard for whatever situation you are involved in.

just so you know.

LOOKS LIKE WE'VE MADE IT.....

If you ask most people, I am pretty sure they would say that they had never "Googled" themselves(LIARS). I have and do. Why because I want to know what kind of presence I have on the web, which is very little if you must know. I also "Google" my address, which is not for vanity or curiosity but more for utilitarian purposes. Its just nice to know that someone can easily get directions to or from your house when you don't live in a well known area.
Three years ago on Christmas Eve the wife and I moved into a new neighborhood kind of off the beaten path. The neighborhood itself had only been there for four years at the most. for three years now I have been unable to get or give directions to or from my house in printed form via the Internet. Its not a big deal its just inconvenient to have to type in a nearby address as a starting point for directions. My wife, like you might say who cares. The answer to that question would be, I do! So occasionally I hop on the World Wide Web and attempt to locate my home address .Yesterday I went to Google Maps to "not" see where I live and BAM! there I was. The Morrow family has finally made it. I can now, with minimal effort give people directions right to my front door. I can get directions from my own doorstep all the way to Lowes (hardware not grocery) I can even get directions to my neighbors house though that would be unnecessary and more time consuming that just walking across the street or side yard depending on which neighbor's house I was going to.
Its just an emotional day, thanks Google.

What is the difference between bourbon and whiskey?

"All bourbons are whiskey, but not all whiskeys are bourbon...Whisky is an alcoholic distillate from a fermented mash of grain produced at less than 190 proof in such a manner that the distillate possesses the taste, aroma, and characteristics generally attributed to whiskey, stored in oak containers (except that corn whisky need not be so stored), and bottled at not less than 80 proof, and also includes mixtures of such distillates for which no specific standards of identity are prescribed.

For a whiskey to qualify as bourbon, the law--by international agreement--stipulates that it must be made in the USA. It must be made from at least 51% and no more than 79% Indian corn, and aged for at least two years. (Most bourbon is aged for four years or more.) The barrels for aging can be made of any kind of new oak, charred on the inside. Nowadays all distillers use American White Oak, because it is porous enough to help the bourbon age well, but not so porous that it will allow barrels to leak. It must be distilled at no more than 160 proof (80% alcohol by volume). Nothing can be added at bottling to enhance flavor or sweetness or alter color. The other grains used to make bourbon, though not stipulated by law, are malted barley and either rye or wheat. Some Kentucky bourbon makers claim that the same limestone spring water that makes thoroughbred horses' bones strong gives bourbon whiskey its distinctive flavor. Kind of like that "it's the water" thing with Olympia beer.

Bourbon can be made anywhere in the U.S., but all but a couple of brands are made in Kentucky. Only the state of Kentucky can produce bourbon with its name on the label. The name comes from Bourbon county in the central bluegrass region of Kentucky. This county was named in 1785 to honor the French royal family and was once the major transshipment site for shipping distilled spirits down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers to New Orleans. Barrels shipped from there were stamped with the county's name, which then became the name of this kind of whiskey. Interestingly, there are no distillers in Bourbon county, Kentucky right now. "
