How do I know that someone said, prior to starting the work: "Oh it won't be a problem, it's not a load bearing wall or anything like that."

 

:lol:

 

 

 

 

Yeah well, that’s an engineer who needs to be locked up for severe alcohol abuse.....

CEO of the distillery's note to self: "Remember, never pay construction workers in bourbon.  Use money instead."

More likely CEO note to self.  "Remember to pay construction workers in bourbon AFTER they finish job not before."

Rest of Kentucky's Barton 1792 distillery collapses

 

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Whiskey barrels were piled in a mountainous heap Wednesday after the rest of a whiskey storage warehouse collapsed in Kentucky, nearly two weeks after part of the decades-old structure came crashing down. In a statement, the company said its employees "worked quickly to contain the spill" Wednesday, with none of the new runoff entering any waterways. 
 
The remainder of the massive structure collapsed at the Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown, Nelson County Emergency Management spokesman Milt Spalding said. No injuries were reported in either collapse, he said.
 
"It is a mountain of bourbon barrels," he said Wednesday. It is unknown how many barrels can be salvaged, CBS Louisville affiliate WLKY reports.
