  1. Jesus that’s a lot of travel days.
  2. No inlet on the new sidepods? Other than that the same?
  3. The Marlboro car? Why, yes it is.
  4. I agree about France but in my travels in Italy I’ve met quite a few producers and learned their stories. When you get connected to the family and their wines it goes to a different level for me. We met the brothers at I Sodi and I noticed an artillery shell in their tasting room. They walked us outside and told us the Germans were on this ridge lobbing shells and the Americans were on the other ridge lobbing shells and they were in the middle. Learning about what they went through gave me a deeper connection to their wine.
  5. I hate fruit bombs although it does seem that the California reds now have more subtlety to them.
  6. Though I do have some California Cabernet Sauvignon in my collection it’s not something I go out of my way to purchase. But old world wines? That’s my jam.
  7. Why not use colorized carbon fiber?
  8. Holland America was a great way to see Norway.
  9. I hear you but I’d rather have all those travel partners.
  10. God, the imo sucks. but..the wines can still be great.
  11. Driver salaries are not part of the cost cap.
  12. The bull fighting schedule seems to be mid April through mid October. If I was going to a bull fight I'd do it in Seville.
  13. This is why we did. Three nights on the east coast where the beaches are and two nights in Palma. We loved both. Mallorca was a great island.
  14. It’s becoming more apparent that watching older seasons on the app is probably better than what they’ll be trotting out in the future.
  15. And if you like Super Tuscans that’s where the great ones are from. Sassicaia. Ornellaia. Delicious.
  16. I was at that race. The weather was brutal and the lines for the buses back to Barcelona were 2-3 hours long.
  17. This fucking hole isn't dug yet?
  18. Just had a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup. So good on a cold night.
  19. Rumors Steiner is out at Haas. Apparently references to him have been removed from the website. I have not done fact checking on this.
  20. Lost by 6 at TCUn with a chance to win in the final minute against the national champions. If that’s your fucking definition of terrible I don’t know what to tell you. We lost our starting QB against Missouri. Yeah, most teams are offensively challenged if that happens. Ohio State has had one of the best offenses in college football for many yeah and if that’s challenged well then you’re mentally challenged. There are stupid fucking takes and then there’s you lumping Ohio State in with Penn State and Iowa.
  21. There’s a vineyard at the top of Spring Mountain that makes damned fine wines. Smith-Madrone. Some really good reds and a very nice Chardonnay.
  22. Bucket list item for me along with Le Mans.

    Just stay the hell away from Coxen Hole. If you get a chance go as far east as you can on the island. You’ll find a little dive bar named La Sirena. It’s a nice little place to chill for a while and it’s away from the crowd. All the way away. If Iron Shore Grill is still around it’s at the end of the beach you’re staying on and serves really good food. Damn,the internet says it’s temporarily closed.
  24. One other thing. Take or get a passport and look at the ferry schedule and do a day trip to Jost van Dyke to hang out at the all-day party on White Bay. One of the most famous beach bars in the Caribbean (Soggy Dollar Bar) is there and White Bay is not only beautiful but a ton of fun. Or you can charter a captained boat for the day and hit White Bay along with Virgin Gorda (The Baths) and hit the Willie T on a bay on Norman Island. Be forewarned, the Willie T is by far the raunchiest bar I have ever been to and I love raunchy bars.
  25. Eat at Extra Virgin. Sit at the bar at Ocean 362 and watch the sunset. If you have a boating day hit Lime Out and enjoy tacos and drinks on the water. Eat at ZoZo's on Caneel Bay. Banana Deck also has good food. Get a root beer float at St. John Brewing Co. They're fantastic and they make the root beer. Enjoy! If you have a jeep hit Skinny Legs for lunch.
