    Not if you stick to La Rue, Huda, or Ba ba ba 😀

    I definitely remember paying .80 for La Rue in Hoi A back in 2017 and the dong is way lower now.  But yeah Im sure craft beer is going to be more.

    Gotta have Huda when you are in central Vietnam.  Good stuff.

    Holy shit. I just saw the USD/VND.  You are going to live like a king.  26000 VND.  That's like 50 cents for a beer.  Edit its even cheaper than that.  More like 30 cents

    Vietnam has a pretty vibrant craft beer scene. After a few days of drinking their mainstream beers, which are pretty light, you might have a hankering for an IPA of fuller bodied beer.  They seemed to run by Americans or Aussies.  Craft beer places I went to:

    Hanoi:  Pasteur St. - Old Quarter 

    Hue:  Imperial Craft Bia

    Saigon:  Heart of Darkness, 7 Bridges, Winking Seal

    All were good.  You will pay more than 50 cents, however.

  3. Article from the BBC.  Has a video showing wife of Oceangate’s CEO and captain monitoring audio and text communication from the sub.  You can hear audio of the implosion which sounds like a “door slam”. There was text that was received after the implosion which gave the wife a false sense that everything was ok.  Problem was that the sound of the audio traveled faster than the text message.

    Also USCG investigation concluded that carbon fiber hull started deteriorating a year before on a previous trip.

    “The footage was recently obtained by the USCG and shows Wendy Rush, the wife of Mr Rush, hearing the sound of the implosion while watching on from the sub's support ship and asking: "What was that bang?"”

    I definitely call horseshit. 18-21 hours of 'A' for any normal student would be extremely impressive. 24 hours, at 2 different institutions, while playing a college sport? Momma is making shit up about her little angel. 

    The 12 hours per semester at aggy were correspondence.

    This winter, producers at N.F.L. Films decided that a new season of its sports docuseries, “Hard Knocks,” would focus on Mr. Belichick’s efforts to build the U.N.C. football program ahead of the 2025 season. HBO agreed to air it.

     

    But days before they were set to announce the series, Ms. Hudson demanded she be granted content approval and partial ownership of the show, according to a person familiar with the deal who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized by producers to speak to a reporter.

    N.F.L. Films pulled the plug.
     

    Bitch be crazy

    I believe she also insisted on having the title of Executive Producer or Co-Executive Producer.

    Nickel beer on Thursday at the Silver Dollar, 2 dollar margs with everclear in it at Jorge’s. Chelsea Street Pub buy one and get 2 of the same for a nickel. 

    And Katz’s had $1.00 martinis in a small beer mug on Tuesday or Wednesday night

    Lot of words to say “From the outside looking in, you can’t understand it.  From the inside looking out, you can’t explain it.”
