We got a package in the mail yesterday that should have had booze in it. It said Knob Creek on the side, and that usually means we’re going to be able to whet our whistles. But no. It contained a T-shirt that said “I Survived the Drought of ’09″ and a letter that started with “Thanks for nothing.”

Yeah, exactly. Thanks for nothing to whichever one of you bastards who drank more than your share, because there’s apparently no Knob Creek left for the year. Well, they’re not exactly out, but they’re expecting to run low this year because they didn’t put enough whiskey aside for this year and demand has been higher than expected.

Some may think it’s more marketing nudge than dire shortage, but we say if you’re a big Knob Creek lover you may want to go lay some aside while the getting’s good, just to be on the safe side.
