I love it when companies, especially beer and liquor
manufacturers, proudly claim the long ago year they started making their stuff.
But what difference does that make if it’s not the same craftsmen making the
product?
I think they should assure us it’s the same people still
working today making the stuff as it was way back then. They could just say
they’re skeletons revived by black magic, or zombies, made from the same
original workers, who still brew or distill their goods. Or I guess they could
be vampires. (Zombies are all the rage these days, and skeletons never go out
of style. Vampires might be a bit out of fashion these days though, thanks to
all the teenage cheek-sucking* catalog model vampires of recent movies.)
* (The cheek sucking isn’t for blood; they suck their own
cheeks in to accentuate their cheek bones.)
