It also suggests there’s a limit to how much the whole process can be scaled up, since:ī) while farms certainly exist and thrive, they are far outnumbered by strip mall sports bars where everyone refers to each other - friend, foe, family member - as either “guy” or “kiiidddd.” But nothing on the official website says a thing about the best damn state in the union.ĭigging further into the matter brings up Sons of Liberty’s Loyal 9 vodka, distilled with “local Rhode Island corn” which I assure you has never been a sigil of Rhody pride.
