Comes into room while I’m reading on my phone and watching TV, 5 mins before a meeting… “So, I’m thinking we need to rearrange this room so that we can fit more kid toys up here.” “OK, I’ve got a meeting in a few mins so let’s talk about it this weekend.” “I’m thinking we need to move the couch for it to work…” “You mean the couch we spent weeks agonizing over before changing the orientation of the entire room and saying it was perfect?” “Yes, but we need more play space, so the whole room needs to move again…” “I have a meeting in 3 minutes… let’s figure it out this weekend” “So this section of the couch needs to move over here, or we can put it somewhere else.” “There’s no space anywhere else for a section of couch, and it would be odd on its own anyway” “We could put it in the attic, or just get rid of it…” “The couch that we spent a fortune on and waited 9 months to arrive? That one, you want to put in the attic?” “I’m saying it’s an option… you’re impossible!” *leaves for meeting [emoji2371][emoji2357]
Bert - Did you get a chance to try the new HH20 Mellow Corn Granddaddy while you were there? I have the opportunity to buy one, but at a whopping $1650 it would have to be “best blowie of your life” good for me to really entertain. The reviews seem to fall in the “good not great” area, so I’m seeking opinions. I like the [emoji535] but I’m not convinced…
I think it’s more that the premature call forced their hand once another state was decided in Mankin’s favor. They could have held out, I suppose, to see if others counterbalanced and they could call that state another way, but that would have undercut their desired result anyway…
Except that, again, Kendal never utters a word while on the phone with Nate and we track his movements the entire time. The net result is the same, and I can see your path as well, sans that particular detail.
Bruh… I lived there for years. Trust me when I say that I FULLY embraced seafood culture, but things got a bit desperate on the BBQ front during COVID and I didn’t always feel like firing up the smoker. Just giving an example on the other side, where NOTHING in a state holds muster.
So… I must have interpreted the Shiv call differently, because what I heard was not a VM message but rather a “this number is no longer in service”, reinforcing that she never intended to speak with her ex. I found it strange thereafter that, with the camera on him the entire time, Kendal didn’t utter a word while on the phone… Did he too receive the out of service message? I suppose that would make sense as a “his number isn’t working so Shiv is full of shit” but probably could have been handled more deftly in that case.
There are a few craft spots in SoCal now that are doing quite well… it’s not perfect, but 90% better than what you can get anywhere but Texas. The guys in San Juan Cap in particular have it pretty dialed, but my sister says her favorite is what Dave Grohl serves up randomly in a valley parking lot on weekends. Personally I think she’s biased, but apparently Dave is obsessed with cooking competition BBQ and the product reflects that passion. Tip: Don’t ever order BBQ in Maryland… I’ve tried it all and it’s shit.
If you feel like making another at some point just LMK - Would make a killer gift for a friend and I’d be happy to pay. Anyway, speaking of paying, if there are those of you interested in Cigar Blend at this price LMK. I grabbed two, as I still feel it’s one of the most unique bourbon experiences that can be had, even at this price point.
The BiB is their least impressive offering IMO. It’s basically their standard bottle with a higher price point… there’s no discernible, or worthwhile difference. Do wish I was back in Baltimore for their anniversary right now though… they have some fun distillery-only options right now.
Funny that Ken’s first instinct, to tell Matson to fuck off and stay in New York to deliver terms, was likely the right call. He was too easily called off by the old guard, who have little on their mind but the sale. They kept wondering what their father would have done? He was already in the process of serving all those old fucks up for dog food.
Ravens home games were a party and, though being in the heart of a booze-centric town certainly plays a role, the tailgating is also prolific. Stumble South after the game and you run right into the Horseshoe and TopGolf, go East and you hit the college bars in Federal Hill, North you’ll hit strip clubs and the hotels… go West and you could end up dead, but 3/4 of your options lead to additional drinking opportunities within 1/4 mile.
Those of you with a Powerwall… what did you pay to have it installed? Got a quote for 5k which seems pretty steep, especially with $1500 allocated to permitting. Gonna reach out to a few others tomorrow but would love to know what the going rate in Austin is at the moment (or in the last couple years).
Lot of possibilities there, but let’s not forget the prematurely cut off scene with Greg and some rando immediately after he concluded the call with his disgusting counterpart. In this scenario, the leak possibilities are endless… could have been the damn flight crew as they were pumping on the old man’s chest…
