"Never bought into that alcohol is a depressant thing. Booze isn't the darkness. Booze is the bonfire of incalculable joy."

298.

So hey, you may remember, 5 years ago, when I said I wanted to shoot for 300 bars. At the time I figured I could easily knock off the remaining 65 inside of a year.

(That was back before I learned about economics and recessions, of course.)

There've been some pretty poor years since then - between November 2009 and November 2010, for instance, I only added 5 bars.

Well, I stepped it up a little since Christmas, and now I'm up to 298. Only a matter of time now...

As Long as There's Whiskey.
