a little history of Whiskey and drinking of alcohol in America preceeds an exploration of the manufacture of Bourbon whiskey, with visits to the Jim Beam, and Maker's Mark distilleries.

    Well, me and my friend Claudio we are having a drink of Kentucky Straight Bourbon, and he said that I should have a conversation with those people who make that great stuff because of tthe accent no Germans can never understand. Well, I have been listening to lots of English accents, so I think I will be able to understand especially after some more glasses of that great stuff. Well, Claudio just told me that your accent is still easier to understand than the f... Oxford English!!!!! :)
