Ron Burgundy is as overexposed as Mike Ditka.

That went from a mildly amusing character to one I'd like to see die.

At least Ditka is amusing in his overexposure

I never bothered to look. What kind of box office did Anchorman 2 do?

I have a hard time believing this doesn't taste like 'Sex Panther'.

My Jack drinking buddy at work said the same thing. I got him a bottle of Winter Jack for being the Super Bowl party host but he said he hasn't tried it yet. After reading the reviews, I have a feeling he thought it sucked and just hasn't told me.

I haven't had it either. He's a very smart man with impeccable taste.

How do you drink your Jack, Nas? Neat, on the rocks, mixed?

I am a neat drinker. Don't like to mix it unless I really don't want to get drunk.

I just started drinking Jack this summer. It's been very easy on the celiac disease. I 'm going to try Gentleman Jack next.

Gentleman's Jack is very smooth. If you like the regular Jack you will love that one.

Overrated character and overrated movie. Funny, but nothing earth shattering like Caddyshack or Blazing Saddles.

Single Barrel is tremendous but at the price point, you can get better bourbons.

I keep calling Single Barrel "Select" for some reason but IMO that is the best Jack that I've had. What do you think is? It's only about $70 and instead of 3 shots of anything else usually 1 will be good enough for me. Especially if I have a cigar.

I've been drinking whiskey since I had a taste at about 7 years old and almost died. I've had a lot of whiskey but I like Jack more. What about you?

I drink it all. Come from a long line of alcoholics. Rare I find one openly distasteful. Just that "house brand" liquor store stuff that sells for like $7/gallon. Jim Beam is perfectly pleasant and sells for like $12/ 750ml. Or you could buy Jack for $28. is Jack twice as good as Jim Beam? No it is not.

I don't think it is but it is better. Sometimes when you like something you don't focus on the price. Whenever I get around to drinking I am an alcoholic and will drink anything but my preference is Jack and other whiskies.
