  1. Great blind old Napa cab tasting with a Bordeaux ringer. 89 L’Arrosee, 90 La Jota Howell Mtn, 90 Mondavi Reserve, 85 Berlinger Private Reserve, 90 Forman and 85 Grgich. All were incredible but Grgich was past prime.9b2f9412f202d20e369d9038dc6afb03.jpg

    Any vegetal notes on the Forman?

    They lowered the price on something that will be sold out in 5 minutes?

    How did this guy not go bankrupt 5 times?

    He's also going to fix the Post Office because Bezos.

    That's what I'm going to do.  Is it best to walk the course?  

     

    Thanks, Dad!

    I am pretty sure I walked it but honestly can't remember anymore.

    There's not a lot of up and down, and the routing is very conducive to walking.

    I haven't played the north course (and it was renovated after I played in 2008).  I've heard it's prettier and more fun.

    The south course starts off great.  3-6 are all strong holes with excellent views of the ocean and cliffs.  Then there are a stretch of somewhat forgettable holes until around 11.  Par 4 leading back out to the ocean (I think it's 11) and then a great par 5 running back inland followed by my favorite hole on the course (the short par 4 that was set at around 290 yards for the US Open).  15 and 16 are very pedestrian.  They reminded me of playing at Sherrill Park or some other unmemorable municipal course.  17 is a really good hole (dogleg left par 4).  I personally am not a fan of 18 but it does have some great history, most notably Tiger's finish in '08 and then Rahm's finish last year (or was it 2 years ago).

    Hope you get to play one of them.  It is worth the effort of getting up before dawn and waiting in line, but if you are able to get a tee time by calling (see BTW above) that's even better!

    Couldnt disagree more, everything you typed applies to both parties, the left plays identity politics and they've demonized oil companies corporations and now anyone who isn't bleeding heart open arms accepting of lgbqrt and illegals are now labeled racist.

    This is not a very objective post.

    Does this guy have a legitimate chance of winning the general election, or is this one of those situation that the other party has a continued lock on a elected office which leads to crazy candidates from the other side?

    It's the sole republican seat on the county commission.  All of the others have gone Democrat over the last 10-15 years.

    So, yes he has a chance of winning the general but much less so now than in the past.  Of course this story won't help him.  He might not make it out of the primary, although he was the odds on favorite prior to Friday.

  6. Baby’s daddy is not a concern troll. I know him personally.

     

    Be kind.

     

    Understand that many are coming from a perspective of being fed propaganda for over two years on these things.

     

    I suspect he will become “woke” if he will read with an open mind.

     

    Bashing him here will not aid in that regard.

  7. This story is all over my neighborhood.  His son (the one dating the girl of Vietnamese descent) has been friends with my daughter (no pics) since kindergarten.  Not surprised in the least by this; surprised it took so long to come out.

    I feel bad for the son (and daughter).  His wife is a complete doormat.  Completely disfunctional situation.
