Aren't there some bacon flavored drinks (cocktails, but maybe there's a brewery that does a bacon beer)?

Epic Smokehouse in Pentagon City serves (well, they did the last time I was there in late 2019) their Old Fashioned with a candied bacon stirrer

That would go well with bacon brushed with maple syrup and grilled on a stick, which I've had at cocktail receptions.

You were missed. It was a nice interlude. A variety of subjects.

Whenever I’m at a restaurant and want to add Bacon to my sandwich or burger and it’s $0.99 to add bacon, and then sales tax rate is 6%, it means it’s $1.05 to add bacon and I think “Freedom costs a buck-o-five”. (my “Team America” move reference ).

lol. Would be $2.20 here. A couple of days ago I was apparently mindlessly humming the theme song from that movie. My wife looked at me weird and asked were you just humming the Team America song? My response: f-yeah (naturally). She doesn’t think I’m funny...

Sorry you missed last night - I mentioned you and your major groan.

I told everyone that as you read through the posts, your groans got more intense and the result was the major GROAN that was reminiscent of the scene in Katz's deli in "When Harry met Sally"

Hootie may not be out of a job so quickly after all. There are twigs under the chair on my balcony, but I have seen no birds today.

SuperG1955 suggested that I invest in some rubber snakes. They will be arriving later today.
