Y’all know me…
I’ve been speaking my mind for years.
Now I’m pouring something worth talking about.
Freedom of Speech – “We Got Wine.”
I wasn’t trying to make another wine for wine people.
I made something for the people who like good vibes, good music, good company, and a cold one in their hand.
Whether you’re at the concert, the after-party, the cookout, or just kicc’n’ bacc on the porch…
We Got Wine.
I was gonna keep it low-key…
Then somebody pulled up with a can and a bad idea.
Now the whole blocc’s singin’ and I know why.
These Freedom of Speech wines are startin’ to show up where the people already gather — the spots you already know, the venues, the little pop-ups. Keep your eyes open.
And if you catch me out there hostin’ a little cocc-tail hour… pull up. We’ll raise one together.

Come see where we’re pourin’ next.

In the Frasier series finale, Kelsey Grammer recites the entire final stanza of Alfred Tennyson’s Victorian-era poem “Ulysses,” about the last voyage of Odysseus, in an episode that was seen by twenty-five million people.
“Because I Got High” became so popular that Afroman says two uniformed New York cops once lit a joint and offered to smoke with him. (“This is a crooked-cop prank on me,” he thought. Nevertheless, he accepted.)

Now that the US is knocked out, I am formally extending an invitation to the American people to support Norway.
Why?
1: The Vikings discovered America before Columbus.
2: There are more ethnic Norwegians in the US than in Norway.
3: Next weekend we can pillage the English peasants together.

The US Navy operates a 50,000 acre forest in Indiana whose entire job is keeping one wooden ship from 1797 afloat.
The ship is USS Constitution, still a commissioned warship with an active-duty crew. Cannonballs bounced off her in 1812 because the hull sandwiches a wall of live oak ribs between two layers of white oak planking, nearly 2 feet of solid wood so dense it barely floats. British 18-pounders hit it and dropped into the sea. A sailor yelled "her sides are made of iron" and the nickname stuck.
Here's the problem with owning a 229-year-old wooden ship: you can't buy the parts. Hull planks run up to 40 feet long and 7 inches thick, cut from single white oak trunks. A white oak takes over a century to grow that big. No lumberyard on earth stocks it.
So the Navy grows its own. Constitution Grove at Naval Support Activity Crane holds trees over 100 years old, reserved exclusively for this ship. Foresters there are managing oaks today that will become hull planking in the 2100s. The maintenance plan literally runs on tree time.
Every 20 years or so she enters dry dock and shipwrights swap out rotted timber. After two centuries of this, estimates put original 1797 wood at maybe 10 to 15 percent of the ship. The Navy keeps replacing her plank by plank because Congress mandated her preservation and because she's the only active US warship that has sunk an enemy vessel.
Every other asset in the Navy has a decommission date. This one has a tree farm.
