Summertime

[gordo]

The time when all the Vacation Bible School and kids' baseball teams want shirts at the same time.

Also the time when you become keenly aware of just where the building's AC vents are located.

If you're located in the SE US, it also means it's time to start keeping an eye out on the National Hurricane Center website.

Even if it's just a nearby tropical storm, it wreaks havoc on your operation (shipping, receiving, etc.). Semi-trucks will not be on the road in any winds of 35 mph or higher.

Gotta make sure your Bourbon reserves are topped off and ready to go.

Where I worked, it was tornados we had to watch for. I worked in a large, metal building. Some people wanted to hide under the cutter. I claimed the Kluge letterpress. It was all cast iron.

I worked for a small newspaper that had been acquired by a conglomerate. When I started working there, the other employees told me that the previous owner had kept beer in the soft drink machine.

I also was told that the second door to his office opened onto a small alley. It was used to sneak out his girlfriends when his wife came in.

If you live down here, you gotta have your hurricane preparedness kit ready:
1) Water
2) Burbon
3) Flashlights
4) Tequilla
5) Batteries
6) Gin
7) Canned Foods
8) Whiskey
9) Toilette Paper
10) Wine
11) Paper Towels
12) Beer

I agree with your list except for gin. Can't stand the stuff. And beer? Why waste time, you've got the hard stuff.

You forgot pretzels.

Figured moonshine would make that list, also doubles as fuel for the getaway car.

Actually, I do keep 2 mason jars of moonshine in the liquor cabinet.......

Yeah, when all else fails, forget the hammer, head to the jar.

... forget the hammer, head to the jar.

Don't come back to the hammer after having emptied the jar if you are attached to your fingers.
