  1. Flew to Mexico City for work last October.  Had a great meal downtown with a co-worker from Puebla.  Mexico City is amazing!

    We went to PV for a long weekend in early January.  Stayed at the Marriott and walked all over downtown.  Can't wait to go back!  Food was awesome and very affordable.

    Went to Grand Cayman for Spring Break.  Easy to get to, beautiful beaches, very expensive.

    Wouldn't feel safe enough at this time to go to Cabo or Acapulco with wife/son.  Don't really care to ever go back to Cancun area.

    Yes. Private selection equals barrel proof.  And yes it's worth $70 a bottle.  There are 10 variations. OE is a low rye mash bill (by 4 roses standards but still higher than most) and OB is their high rye.  Both mashbills get paired with one of five yeast strains each with a unique character to make the 10 options.  I'm generally prefer the low rye but was surprised by the OBSV (yes same mashbill as the single barrel but at cask strength and with more age).  It may have been one of the best I've had. 

    Word of caution.  Thought I've never disliked any of these I've like some substantially more than others. OESO was my least favorite and I think that is the "fruit" profile if I recall correctly   Anyway my point is they're all surprisingly different and the fact that they are single barrel and often aged different lengths and have different proofs makes even the same mashbill somewhat variable   

     

     

     

    Picked up a couple of the OBSQ ("Floral, spicy, medium body").  One to drink and one to save.  It is definitely worth $70.  Actually 6 of the 10 varieties have "Fruity" in the description (OBSV, OBSO, OBSF, OESV, OESO and OESF).

    Also grabbed a Wild Turkey Decades/Master's Keep.  He gave me the 6 bottle price.  How could I refuse?

    Just added up my putts from Sunday. Forty fucking five. 

    7 gir and 45 goddamn putts. 9 three putts. 

    Dude, have you tried putting with your eyes open?  Or switch to left handed?

     

    Played my first round of the year on Tuesday at The Boulders North in Carefree (Scottsdale), AZ.  Beautiful course!  My customers are a 9 and an 11 handicap.  They just placed 6th of 64 teams in their member tournament at their club.  They made me play with them from the tips.  They shot 81/86 and I shot a 95.  I was not that displeased with the result, either.  I don't think I've played since last October.

  4. Just saw an email that a local store will have Four Roses Private Selection OBSQ available tomorrow for $70/bottle.

    Has anyone tried it, or prior "Private Selection" releases, and is it worth trying to get a bottle or two?

    Sorry but if you like sports it isn't a contest. DirecTV is for sure a pain in the ass but they are far and away better than the other options.

    It is if the only sports you care about are Cowboys, Longhorns, Rangers, Cubs, Texas BB and Golf.  Throw in the MLB package I access through the Smart TV menu and that's everything I need.  Fuck the DirecTV NFL package.  Only Fantasy Football dorks need that crap.

  6. Far from being 1%er rides, but the past two work trips to PHX I've been able to get a Dodge Challenger SRT and an Infiniti Q50 from Hertz.  Since I drive a Yukon Denali at home, I thoroughly enjoyed treating both like I would never drive them again.

  7. Multiple sources reporting that Israeli jets have just bombed a Syrian airbase that was populated with Syrian government as well as Iranian troops:
