  1. I need a better knife. No doubt about it. Been looking at some Grantons but haven’t decided which one.
  2. Can’t You See? One of my all time favs and still relevant today. Classic Southern Rock with some Blues and Progressive Country ( a flute? Wtf does that?) thrown in for good measure. Listened to it the night before I got the news.
  3. My WSM Holy Trinity cook for the 4th.
  4. Thanks. I’ve never had a problem with it. Maybe it’s well designed or I’m just used to it. Feel like a double hinge might hurt the aesthetics and not provide a material improvement in functionality.
  5. One of the best stories evar! Heard how Sid would lock those guys in a room for skits. And look what and who emerged. Loved it! Thanks and Hook em!

    Yellowstone

    That’s immediately where I went.
  7. He’s ahead of most of us.

    Yellowstone

    Yep. That’s him alright.
  9. 6 hours but I can’t ever wait that long.
  10. Went to Seaside/Seagrove for Memorial Day. Beaches were packed - no masks. A few stores and restaurants required masks to enter but loosely enforced. Crowds may have been due to holiday weekend, cabin fever and beaches reopening. You may have better luck w crowds on a non-holiday weekend now that the initial surge has passed.
  11. Chewy - what’s your take on the FR Small Batch Select? One of my favorite bourbon lines but have yet to try that one. Love the Small Batch for $30. Hell I used to get it for less than $30.
  12. I’m only two episodes in but it’s obvious it’s the tease they’re using to keep you in. I’ll give it a few more episodes since my daughter wants to watch with me so it’s our thing. Also like Carrell and Malkovich although it seems they’ve put the comedic handcuffs on JM to make him a straight man to Carrells over the top general. My favorite Carrell role was Brick. Freaking genius.
  13. Not at all. It’s a problem I have with just about all the barrel proofs but sacrifices must be made to get the full flavor profile no?
  14. Popped the Larceny Barrel Proof tonight. Pretty good stuff.
  15. Baby Saz has been my everyday rye for years. Starting to branch out now that the number of ryes has proliferated but Saz is still the best bang for your buck rye IMHO.
  16. It’s a reference to texags that predates your joining this site in 2018. Long timers may get it - newbies like you - probably not. So internet tough guy - what kind of douche names themselves “thunderlounge” anyway? You should just change it to “Music for Bottle Service”. Hope this doesn’t hurt your feelings. If it does, maybe this site isn’t for you.
  17. True but to be fair those other countries are having more success in fighting COVID because they’re used to fighting these things and able to physically isolate themselves as an island or peninsula. After waves of different viruses over the years, masks, social distancing, contact tracing, quarantines are all pretty much accepted in countries that live in the shadow of China. We have yet to fully adjust to the new reality of global pandemics.
  18. I think you should go to Guam before it capsizes. Lesson learned though - try to post something to help Mach 1 and anyone else who might be thinking about a trip to HI and you get Pooh thrown at you. This place is turning into TexAgs.
  19. Good catch Smartass. Continental US. Happy now?
  20. When Hawaii reopens it will only reopen gradually to places that have low COVID rates (Japan, NZ, Korea , etc). They dont have hospital capacity for an uncontrolled out break and have to be careful. US doesn’t fit the bill yet. Could be a long wait for them to reopen to tourists. But you’re right, they’re highly dependent on tourism.
  21. Highly recommend if you’re down FloriBama way this summer.
  22. I’m getting my picks from TW and they are very good. Can’t seem to find them at the Specs here in DFW.
  23. I’ve had some really really good ones as I kept going back for more and one here lately that was merely very good that I’ve had no problem finishing. But I guess that speaks to the variability of Single Barrel picks.
