tgirsch: The Rum is made in Panama. Where else? ;) And if you’re not a fan of spiced rum I recommend our 7-year old Reserva.

Yes, ron means “rum.” In Spanish, the pronunciation rhymes with “bone,” and the R is rolled. Now you know.

Cool that they sent you a full bottle, though. Where’s it made?

I’d try it, but I’m honestly not a fan of spiced rum.

Thanks for covering our Ron de Jeremy Spiced Rum. We’re not sure if you tried it or not, or if you actually focused on just commenting the quotes you posted. If you want to try it, but for some reason don’t have the possibility of purchasing it yourself, just let us know and we’ll make sure you get a sample.

Artisanal indeed! Not only us, Ron and Francisco like our rum. Both our Reserva and the Spiced rum were some of the most rewarded rums in 2012.

Some examples:
International Rum Conference and Tasting Competition, Madrid 2012: Gold Medal SIP Awards 2012 Gold Medal | UK Rum Masters 2011: Silver Medal UK Rumfest Golden Rum Barrel Awards 2011: Nominated for Best New Golden Rum
Tasting Panel Magazine August 2011: 93 points | Huffington Post: The Best New Spirits Of 2011
SIP Awards 2012: Platinum Best of Class

Cheers!

But even then, he’s making a superficial leap from an average result under some circumstances to a global conclusion for all instances. I have no doubt the 521-year halflife is correct, but chemical degradation rates are not like nuclear halflives – they are highly dependent on circumstances. There have in fact been a number of Jurassic-Park-like attempts to retrieve old DNA from specimens in amber (insects, not dinosaurs), and it’s not impossible that it could succeed; that wouldn’t contradict the 521-year average halflife, or prove that all geological timelines are utterly false because one tiny bit of DNA happened to get preserved under favorable circumstances.

Sorry for the large gaps in the facile record. We’ve all been busy. Glad to have you posting, though.

I cannot find creationists nor what the US calls “conservative” at all funny. Too many people are hurt by them.

On the other hand, this is better than I would have expected from Vox Day; at least his fictional event really would cause some changes to current theories if it were to actually be true. Most of the time the scenarios cited by creationists as disproofs of science already comport with science.

I’d about given up checking in. Given that we’re about to swear in a fucking President Romney in a few months, I can be forgiven for being really really cranky.

This was a lovely waft of fresh, sane air. God dammit.
