I don't believe you JS, Chuck could strangle you with a cordless phone. He can kill ants with a magnifying glass at night.

Chuck is looking weird these days. Another decade or so and I reckon I can take him out. I watched Missing in Action the other day, classic 80's action.

Baddies can't shoot for sh1t, goodies can thread a needle at 200m from the hip. Bottomless mags, ****** acting, the whole bit.

I reckon chuck would last about 9 seconds in a modern combat zone

Chuck has already died, death just isn't game to tell him yet. The last time Chuck went skydiving the parachute didn't open, he was so pissed of about having to take it back for a refund.

He is a weirdo IRL. Creationism, Bible bashing... That said, what an amazing life story and he is one of very few actors who are actually pretty good martial artists with black belts across a number of disciplines.

I was sad to see him cry like a bitch, as he drove his cement mixer into the sunset.

Hi JS now I know your dreaming, it's well known fact that Chucks tears can cure cancer, but no one has ever seen him cry.

The only photo I have with Chuck dates from the 80s, at Yoshiaki Uno's Dojo. It won't share a page with any other photos in the album, all the other photos started crying when it was put in there.

Which is why I can't share my photos, because you're not emotionally ready.

Up late tonight and watching an episode of 'Blindspot'.

Now i know why they like big bangers in the US.,.their ammo's all powder-puff loaded (or one of the Rat Plague loads lol).

Must be,...how else do you explain .223's at 30m ricocheting off filing cabinets????

For all it's (purported) entertainment value, Hollyweird sure has a lot to answer for in this modern world...and the MSM should stop referring to movies for 'background' when 'reporting', it only exposes just how dim they really are....

Yup,...It's late,....and i'm bored,.....just my musings....ymmv. :)

Not late yet but Im bored.
Im a few drinks into a bottle of bundy 33OP which is 75.9%alc. What is the most potent non home brew comercial stuff others here have tried. I think this and buffalo trace white dog at 62.5 are my top. Love BT white dog has strong corn whiskey moonshine flavour.

Never tried anything above 40% myself . But I have to ask: is drinking Bundy 33OP like jumping in front of a moving bus?

I had 33OP a couple of decades ago... probably should have kept it un-opened, the old bottles are worth a bit now.
Another high powered drink is Bacardi 151 which is 75.5%acl. That's another one that sorts the men out from the boys.
Another late night special is Green Chartreuse ... 55% alcohol. It's a good one to have straight.

It's easy enough to make your own alcohol that's 95% to 97% pure but drinking that would be stupidity.
Personally I prefer mine at 40% alcohol, sat on activated carbon for a few weeks followed by almost a month on Gobbler's Bourbon chips . Now that's a smooth drink !

There's been plenty of people killed from the old
"I always drink at least a whole bottle attitude" Infant I thought that Bundaberg stopped making 33OP because too many people died trying to get through a whole bottle on their own, I was surprised to see it back on the shelves again. :thumbsup:

Not wrong bout worth a bit. Mates have big collections worth a good amount.
I used to collect bundy up till few years ago when they went nuts with a new release every 1 to 2 months so got over it and sold most off except future drinkers.
I bought the 33op when they did the 2013 anniversary but stopped drinking before got to crack it.

My imbibing favorite is the Wild Turkey (Barrel Proof 83% iirc)....it ALL goes down sweet on a full bottle, hardly any slowing down, but ohhhh what a fuzz head when ya wake...lmao.

Re Chartreuse.. got into that for a while in my 20's....preferred the Green over the Yellow...but both BITE....:)

No drinks tonight....just ambling around looking for 'build' ideas...got something in mind, but due to 'special' tastes, likely won't occur lmao. I hate having to 'settle' due to non or lack of availability of what i desire....that, and the lack of $$$ ha ha ha...

You know, barrel proof, key word here being proof is only like 40% alcohol volume, which seems a little low for cask strength :p You mean, 83% alcohol? Sheesh, I am surrounded by whisky n00bs! And Chartreuse in the same post, my god, man, what's next, connoisseur's notes on subtle citrus undertones in a bottle of Smirnoff Ice? Bah!

Not that i was arguing the merits of labeling, or the differences between the two, but yes, i was aware. :thumbsup:

Did you imbibe before posting? otherwise what reason to jump all over a poster for simply 'musing' as to current and past "indulging".... i wasn't in a pi$$ing competition with anyone if that's what you were thinking :?: :wtf:

After all, what you drink doesn't affect me,...go your hardest by all means.

One mans grapes is another mans wine....dare to be different. :drinks:

Just to clarify, by Barrel Proof, i was alluding, albeit poorly, to the "Rare Breed" range, particularly the now defunct "108" version. The quoted 83% may be marginally off, hence (iirc) being used, it's been a while since i enjoyed one, and no, i am not any sort of aficionado of alcohol, i just know what i like when i do drink.
