I spent 3k on braces for Cal already and now I'm told he's ready for round two.  Only $2.5k more but I get a discount if I pay cash. I feel your pain GB.

I doubt I'll ever drink another mint julep due to my aunt. She worked for a Senator from Kentucky in the early 90s on Capitol Hill and decided to have a Kentucky Derby party at her house (she inherited a 600 acre estate). She didn't "invite" me, my brother, my at-the-time wife, bro's girlfriend, and a few others who helped her over the years - she asked us to bar tend as price of admission. "Oh, and NO tip jars". Ok, fine - tacky as hell, but free booze. Our job was to mix up like 100 gallons of mint juleps in Igloo coolers and pour them for her friends (along with beer and making them other drinks). These #######s may well have been THE most pretentious people I have ever met.  I'm no union-worker advocate but, after a couple of hours of being treated like ####, we all kind of looked at each other and said "workers unite!". And by "unite", I mean "let's get ####ed right the hell up on free booze and to hell with these stuck-up pricks". We turned all of the Igloos around so the spouts were facing out and my brother wrote a note saying "On Strike - serve yourselves or go thirsty". We went off about 100 feet to the side of the festivities, fired up a boombox and some other stuff, and had our own little party.

My aunt wouldn't talk to any of us for almost two years. She's since mellowed and all is good now. But, #### mint juleps.

UH I mean this in the best way so if it offends let me know and I will erase it.  

#### her.  Good for you, your brother and related wimmens.  You don't have to like every family member.

She didn't work for that ####, she inherited it, AND I don't think she got it because she was invaluable in the office.

No offense on my end. 

To be fair to her, she was going through a rough time then. She had curbed her career and personal life to take care of her father (my step-grandfather, who was a real piece of work). When he died, she was in her 30s and quickly married a dude who, it turned out, was only after her money. She got pretty bitter. Then she started running with all of these wealthy movers and shakers, and she went through a period where she kind of lost herself. That's when this party happened. She came through the other side and is pretty cool these days. Still has a little too much of her father in her, but ain't none of us perfect.

And it's not like we acted impeccably during that party, either. Sure, the way she approached us about it was ####ty but we did accept the gig then didn't finish what we agreed to. 

Anyway, I really just wanted to ##### about mint juleps. Even without The Event, they weren't ever my thing

 
My wife just asked me out of the blue if Nomar is still on the Red Sox.  I stopped myself to see if I was dreaming and having one of those weird sports/women dreams where Larry Bird comes out wearing a negligee and 80s basketball shorts and even though you don't want to you can't stop looking to see if you can see his nipples.
