Spirits Review #69: Bondstone - Cask Strength Bourbon!



Bottom Line: Very little burn on the nose followed by oak and rye spice. Heavy burn followed by rye & slight honey sweetness. John tasted apricot but i didn’t.    2 Thumbs down and 2 thumbs up!

He's getting trashed by everyone for being senile so to take the heat off they now say he has advanced prostate cancer. There is no way in the world this wouldn't have been uncovered during his yearly examinations at Walter Reed, so it had to have been hidden, likely for years from being released. 

Even the language of the last report in February 2024 says they already knew about it, very likely since before he was elected. In 2024 they said, "No new concerns found" which means that the cancer was already known about. They could hide the cancer but his senility was on full public display.

Looks like I lucked into a North American Arms Rule 1 .22 WMR pistol and have absolutely no idea about 22WMR ammo let alone out of such a small pistol

Anybody have knowledge to share about the 22WMR & what brand of ammo to avoid and what’s good for a rule 1 gun (always have a gun)
