on a lighter note...

I ran across the buffalo poem in the Thormahlen & Cochran Safaris newsletter. One of their hunters wrote it and he has now passed on due to old age. They posted it in a tribute to him. I liked the poem and thought you guys might enjoy it.

Inyati
The GPS is very nice,
Your laser sight is keen,
But when Inyati comes your way,
Your instinct is to scream.
If looks alone could put one down,
His stare would stop your heart,
For when he tilts those awful horns,
Your composure falls apart.
He’s coming now across the veld,
Consumed with rage and pain;
As death looms close on deadly hooves,
You fight to still your aim.
Your scope is filled with solid black,
Your heart is filled with dread,
And if you used the double gun,
You might not now be dead.

So much good Bourbon in this world. Pity JD isn't in that group. :D
 
@sgt_zim, no argument there. But my preferred drink is Scotch whisky.

Technically speaking, JD is a whiskey, not to be confused with the fine bourbon of our neighbors to the north in KY. Not trying to be a smart-ass. My grandmother was Anita Motlow of Moore County, TN, and a resident of Lynchburg, TN.

Lem Motlow was the proprietor of Jack Daniels distillery, and used to be featured on JD bottle labels.

JD and bourbon are both whiskeys. A TN whiskey (JD) is charcoal filtered before barrel aging. Belle Meade sherry cask is a particularly fine Tennessee whiskey and will be appreciated by any bourbon/whiskey drinker.

Didn't JD used to say Lem Motlow on guard until the seal is broken?
Some months ago I looked at JD bottles and couldn't find it there.
