Moonshine

Interesting article on the resurgence of moonshining, along with comments by ATF agents on the subject.

HA! Back when I was in high school, in East Tennessee, one of my dad's co-workers brought in a pint he'd bought from Popcorn. Just the smell of it was enough to make me heady! I only had one sip of it; firey going down and then a glow that lasted about an hour. Sad to know Popcorn's gone because of his whiskey. He was quite the character in the region.

Talk about a small world.

I never actually met Popcorn; I was too young for that sort of thing. But there were a lot of stories about him and someone always knew someone who got their liquor from him.
