Here’s Why You Should Always Keep Vodka in Your Laundry Room, According to the Laundry Guy

Jada Jackson  18 hrs ago


Laundry is an unavoidable part of everyone's cleaning routine. But Patric Richardson, host of HGTV’s latest series Laundry Guy, is bringing some joy and lightheartedness to this sometimes tedious chore.

Since middle school, Richardson has had a knack for doing laundry, a passion he picked up from his grandmother. Over the past couple of years the Minnesotan has become well-known for his"laundry camps," which always sell out quickly.

"I always say you do laundry for the people you love," Richardson said in a press statement."Laundry is a kind of love language. It's a privilege that I get to wash these things for my clients."

I don't drink vodka, but saw a baking show the other night where the hostess instructed to put a little splash of vodka into the pie crust dough to make it flakier or something. Well, okay, if I have to!

Several years ago,  when the Dripping Springs distillery caught fire and the supply of this nectar of the Gods all but dried up....I cried for weeks.  They said but we have Tito's. Try it, you'll like it.  Well Tito's tastes like ass water.

I've never had vokda and I used to be a scotch drinker  (back when I was healthier).  Maybe it's the alcohol content that makes the crust flakier?  I'll have to give it a try.

She added just a splash to the ice water.

I think it was to make the crust more tender (less production of gluten, or some such thing).

American faces years in Dubai prison after pot found in urine

Call it a bad toke of luck.

An American man who allegedly smoked or ingested pot in Las Vegas faces three years in prison in the United Arab Emirates after traces of marijuana were found days later in his urine, according to Detained in Dubai, a website published by his attorney.

Peter Clark, 51, flew from Las Vegas to Dubai on Feb. 24, where he went to the hospital after suffering an attack of pancreatitis. Doctors there found traces of hashish in his urine – considered possession in the UAE – and reported Clark to authorities.

He was arrested on March 3 and spent three days in a "flea-ridden cell" before being allowed back to his hotel, where he awaits his fate.............

I have vodka and whatever else delivered in two hours or less.
Shop and click, and then there it is in my hand.
Got on a rum jaunt for a while, then tried all kinds of brandy.
Now, like today, I'm doing Gin and Tonic.
Yea but, Absolute is a standard part of most orders.
Straight up, shot glass, a little lemon or lime...cures whatever.
This alcohol ocean of liquor delivery thing is gonna kill me.
But I'll drink till then.

My doctor at the VA asked me how did I get in this condition
I explained to him that it was not my fault, it's just a family characteristic.

Lord I have loved some ladies and I have loved Jim Beam
And they both tried to kill me in 1973
When that doctor asked me, Son how did you get in this condition?
I said, hey sawbones, I'm just carrying on an ole family tradition

Some family traditions are not so great.
Hank Williams Sr. died young from being an alcoholic.
