    Marry Banilow Did he sing the jingle too? I know it’s one of his shortest ones.

    Take care and may God bless.

    Bourbon with milk sounds terrible.

    No wonder Kangaroos have pouches for their babies. They would lose the little things without them.

    Yesterday was Bourbon Day and I saw a nice segment on how they make it.

    Bourbon IS whiskey! What’s hard to believe is that 5% of Bourbon is not made in Kentucky because the definition of Bourbon is “whiskey made in Kentucky!” :D (yes! there are two other conditions, so trivial and so common in the whiskey industry that it doesn’t make a difference)

    If I remember correctly. the newborn kangaroo climbs to the pouch on its own to find and attach to a nipple for about six months before being big enough to poke its head up and look around.

    Contrary to what anyone may claim, I assure you that bourbon is the state drink of Kentucky

    Never understood alcohol consumption. That stuff tastes nasty. It must produce one-hell-a-va-high for people to be willing to die ingesting it.

    The University of Maryland has state-owned farms, but I never heard a “jingle” for them.

    So which state did Barry write a farm jingle for?

    I hate to dispute Ripley but after the last 4 months, Kentucky is going to switch the state drink to Bourbon.

    I see a little dot of land in the lower left of the state. Why is it separate?

    Well, I know there is a milk and vodka drink but I’m not sure milk and bourbon would be tasty…

    Didn’t Kentucky only legalize the consumption of alcoholic beverages in 1966? (not 1936, nineteen-SIXTY-six)
