The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

I’ve posted this here before but I’m spreading the gospel, so will again. Frigate Reserve Rum has been my go to (although I cheated a couple of weeks ago with PapasPilar) and you can’t go wrong with any of them.

The story behind Frigate is Flip Pallot of ESPN’s Walker’s Cay fishing fame, got together around a campfire and decided to buy a distillery. The rest is history.

I’ve tried the 8, 12, & 15…haven’t sprung for the 21 yet, but if the others are any indication…it’s going to be amazing!

I've been out for almost two months now. I'm a Myers kind of guy. Always on the look out for new ones tho.

I have a left over bottle of Bumbu reserve that I think is atrocious. It's way too sweet and I don't know what the spices are but... Yuck. It tastes like overdone bathtub punch at a frat house party that's trying to hard. Anyone passing through is welcome to it.

I use to love watching Flip. If I could retire right now with unlimited funds, I would spend the rest of my days alternating the deep channels off shore trolling for sailfish, casting around flotsam for Mahi, and poling the flats in the Keys. Sandy beach bonfires watching the sun go down while the catch of the day slowly drips to a perfect cook next to the fire and a large ice cold rum drink to wash it down. Paradise!

If I can find Frigate, it will be my next purchase. I can barely find Myers here. I have to drive an hour to buy it. I've never heard of Papas Pillar so I'll be on the look out for it as well. Keep the recos coming too.

I've yet to develop a taste for straight rum, but will have it on occasion in a mixed drink. I tend to stick to bourbon or scotch when I need a belt.
 
Rj- this is excellent news!! I'm so glad they found a medication to control your BP. Hope you start feeling better soon. 🫂
My doctor put me on a Alpha blocker? I'm not sure of the terminology.
Lady K ( Kathy ) is my care giver on this and keeps me on track with the doctors.

I go to Kettering Hospital which currently has been 'hacked' and it has me worried about data breaches.
I don't live too far from the doctors office, so I can keep in touch via cell phone.
 
Hello Spooner's
Lady K is well. But me? Blood pressure is 178/90 and I'm coughing up blood with frequent nose bleeds. Lady K sent me to the hospital this morning. I've got extremely high blood pressure and they're keeping me overnight while they do tests on me to try to control it. I'll keep everyone updated. The annoying nurse's are trying to give me hourly sleeping pills because I talk to much...
Good luck.

I'm told BP meds are very effective and that hypertension is relatively easy to control, all things being equal.
