“Rumbling returns to South Carolina as first earthquake of 2025 hits the Columbia area. South Carolina's first earthquake of the year was confirmed Wednesday morning. A 1.9 magnitude earthquake rumbled in the Midlands area, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.”

Sounded like it was in my front yard.

I'm not a blood is thicker than water guy and I've estranged myself from several family members (not my kids) several years ago that I didn't consider trustworthy. Yesterday and today I've received several phone calls from them trying to re-establish contact.  I no longer have reason to fear them as I no longer have disposable income and they know that.
I'm not sure what's going on but I know the Bible has things to say about family. Maybe I need to read a bit and figure it out. If anyone here can point me to biblical passages relating to that I'd appreciate it.

Old VS Old Taste-off: Round 1: Part 4 - Old Tub BIB Bourbon VS Smooth Ambler Old Scout KY Bourbon!



Bottom Line:
Old Tub - No burn in the nose just light floral & oak. Light sweetness, significant burn followed by oak & fruity notes. John tasted vanilla but I did not.

Old Scout - No burn on the nose but prominent rye. Significant burn followed by sweetness, rye spice, slight fruitiness & plenty of wood.

Winner: A tie!
