Wow...a blast fro the past!
"While you're up, get me a Grant's."
Reminds me of the "Mad Men" period. Haven't had any Grant's in a coon's age*...Pinch either, although I did see a bottle of Pinch the other day on a store shelf and was rather surprised that they still made it.
A sampling is in order but most places have the shelves filled with single malts and have no room for blendeds.

*By which I mean raccoon. Trying to head off the usual righteous indignation of any party who, as I think of it, might think otherwise. My personal faavorite reference to this figure of speech was in Gilbert Shelton's "Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers" where Fat Freddy runs into someone and says, "...haven't seen you in a coon's age..." and then does an aside to the reader, "I'm referring to my pet raccoon, Fat Eddy, who was strangled to death when he got caught in the fanbelt of my father's '49 Nash when he was two years old."
