Mr. Vonnegut’s Duty-Dance

I have just smoked an Al Capone cigarillo and downed a triple shot of Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Tennessee Whiskey.
I neither smoke nor drink. Much. But when I do, I go for the Good Stuff. Or rather, I go for what I personally, in my white-trash-with-a-college-education sort of way, consider to be the Good Stuff. The Al Capones are 100% tobacco dipped in cognac, and the Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel is 94 proof.
I stopped buying the regular Jack Daniel’s Old Number 7 Brand (Black Label) a few years ago when they cut it down to 80 proof. Might as well use it to water your rhododendrons now.
But the Single Barrel is still righteous. If they cut that down below 94 proof, Jesus had better come on back. Because there sure as hell won’t be any point to life on Earth anymore.
