I see once again they have failed to take up my proposed Congressional mistress tax. *sigh* So mush revenue gone to waste.

I was going to comment . . . but I need to run to the store and buy a case of good scotch.

Just stocked up with my 2 week supply of Tanduay 80 proof yesterday. 2 x 750 mil bottles... p177, so not sweating yet.

$ 7.00 for a 10 ounce glass of beer here in Australia, roughly 240 pesos, indexed to go up twice a year with inflation, now that's a reason to cry in your beer.

Clermont...at that price, I could not afford to buy the beer to cry in!

Even if the  spirits doubled in price it would still be way cheaper than the old country on the whole.
