  1. This site has some amazing footage of ballistic missile strikes and how fast they're moving.  It makes you understand the challenges of defending against hypersonic missiles that can change trajectory during flight.  I suspect all of this was more of a show of Iran's capabilities rather than an actual attempt at trying to take out Israel.  However, from a pure defense standpoint, I'd expect we're learning a lot about how to defend multi-wave and barrage attacks as well as the reliability and effectiveness of the Iranian systems.

    Got into some wine yesterday afternoon! All of these wines were showing really well. The Kobayashi was suprisingly good. The Verite and La Fleur were fantastic and Canon was emoji91.png!

    If you can get your hands on the Kobayashi white Rhône blend you should snap it up. 

  3. These girls and their fight are awesome to watch. Unfortunately I don’t think White will ever fix the base running because he’s always going to be more aggressive versus less aggressive on the bases. However, the early jumps need to stop. There’s no reason for it, and it absolutely ruins the game. He needs to get that part fixed if we’re going to get anywhere in the postseason. Other than that I’m good with the aggressiveness on the bases. That’s who we are and who he recruits. Bottom line, these girls can make it to the top and I’m going to enjoy watching them try to get there. Hook em

    82 popped my vintage cherry! I have a 76 Oenotheque that I'm dying to try.

    This was a cool experiment. The Oenotheques are just more full and rounded, and I would expect the 76 to be just about perfect. I’m jealous.

    I don't expect Pierce to go without being fired.  yeah Augie and Gus resigned but they knew they were done.

    Pierce has never experienced their same level of achievement, so I doubt he realizes the situation he’s currently in the way those two legends did.

    you two nut jobs are the only people i would ask this based on posting history...

    grabbing a bottle of salon for a gift.  have either of you compared the 2012 to the 2013 and have any opinions on the superior vintage?

    I’ve not had either of those, but based on the other 2012s and 2013s I’ve had, I think I lean toward 2012. With that said, you can’t go wrong with either. Just one question - how does one get on your gift list?

    If this is for Valentine’s Day and she’s a keeper, go with 2002 and there will likely be some magic, if you know what I mean.

    I would enjoy this thread more if posts included approximate prices for the wine displayed. 

    Download the Wine-Searcher app and easily look them up. When @milkman posts, prepare your anus.
