Jimmy Bedford, a lean, laconic Tennessean who for 20 years held what he considered one of the most enviable jobs imaginable — making sure Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey tasted just the way it had since 1866 — died Friday (8-07-09) on his farm, two miles south of the distillery he used to run in Lynchburg, Tenn. He was 69.

To paraphrase a quote from the movie "Michael" (which is a hoot)...."pie makes you feel like you are a 4-square person living in a 4-square world..."

That square Jack bottle, with it's magic elixir...well...that's some FINE sippin' whiskey...thank you Jimmy...thank you Jack...
