You must be 21 or older to visit the site (right!)

A surprising number of companies are doing this. Their sites
prompt you for your age or birthdate and won't let you
proceed if you're not 21 or older. I hit this when looking
for recipes for a Kentucky Derby Party.

Thanks god they're doing this. No doubt it's saving society
from all sorts of mayhem. Imagine what would happen if
teenagers got their hands on recipes with bourbon in it.

What idiots.

Perhaps, but maybe they are doing the minimal amount of due
diligence to head off potential lawsuits?

Or did that thought evade your radar screen? Sure did.

Speaking of Derby time and bourbon... short ribs? This is
actually an Emeril recipe and I'm not crazy about him but
the stew is good.

onions 1 cup baby carrots or 1 cup sliced carrots 1 cup
baby turnips or 1 cup sliced turnips 1 1/2 lbs new or
small red potatoes

4. In a mixing bowl, season the short-ribs with salt and
pepper. Toss with flour and mix well. 2. In a large dutch
oven, add 1/2 cup of oil. Add 1/2 batch of the meat a
time and brown them. Repeat. 3. After 3 or 4 minutes ---
take the beef ribs out and set aside. Add 1/2 cup bourbon
to deglaze pan. Add beef stock ---add garlic, bay leaves,
thyme and a teaspoon black pepper. Then add short ribs
back to the pan with stock Cook for 2 hours. 4. In a
mixing bowl, add pearl onions, baby carrots peeled, baby
turnips new potatoes quartered and season with salt and
pepper. Add vegetables to stew and cook for 1/2 hour.

<laugh> Due diligence? Were you born yesterday? How does
this prevent access to anything? Who could possibly be too
dumb to figure out how to get around these "safeguards",
other than you I mean?

It's a great commercial. It finishes off w/the line, "The

All the manufacturers(*) sites do this, from what I've seen.
You have to *type* in your birthdate rather than just
pressing the "Yes, I'm 21, button", which only makes it
slightly harder than getting into a [censored] site.

Those are clever ads; my favorite is the salute to "Mr. Way

taking a shower in cologne..

"That's beer?"

At the end of a brewer's conference, executives of different
beer companies decide to have a drink in a bar. The Anheuser-
Busch executive orders a Bud, the Miller Brewing exec orders
a Miller Lite, and the Coors exec orders a Coors. Then the
bartender asks the Guinness executive what he wants to
drink, and much to everybody's surprise, he orders a Coke.
"You're not going to order a beer?" his colleagues ask.
"Naah. If you guys won't drink beer, then neither will I."

The DH is going to *love* this joke. He's a beer drinkin'
lad who favors Henry Weinhard's and Bohemia, and looks at
the Big Three above as absolute swill. What I can't figure
is, the Big Three above came about from German brewers...how
could they have managed to produce such, uh, *thin*
products? More than that, how could the American beer
drinker have developed a palate for it?

Terry, have him try 'barley wine'. Hubby developed a taste
for it while in England.

Thanks for the recommendation. Ironically, the DH and I went
to high school in England (Lakenheath American HS in
Suffolk) and we honeymooned in England and have been back a
few times, yet neither one of us had heard of barley wine.
