  1. Glad you enjoyed Secreto. The staff is fantastic there. What did you order at Bastos because if you didn't get the arrechera you made a mistake. 😃
  2. Hotel Secreto is down the road from the basketball gym. I love those late night hot dog stands with jalapeños and cheese. Great late night drunk snack.
  3. It's a shame that all of the art at Punta Sur has eroded and is now gone.
  4. Thanks. He consistently eats up two blockers in the run game and sometimes gets off of those guys and makes the tackle. He is a stout human being.
  5. Please let Tommy Togui be on that plane.
  6. This is cause for a celebration!!
  7. I don't believe this is about Fields. The rumors (because that's all they are at this point) are that it's the DL position group that is affected. The DL had two guys out on Friday and the rumors are of at least two more in the position group.
  8. Eli is a terrible eater and has to be coaxed to eat. He looks fantastic and his weight is holding steady at 80 lbs so I try to avoid worrying about his picky eating. This is now his loveseat.
  9. I got an email this morning from our good friend telling me to get my application in and the documentation of a reduction in revenue from a matching quarter in 2019 and 2020. Easy Peasy. Same application as before with only the dates changed.
  10. Cardale with the mic drop on the reply. Cardale Jones @CJ1two sure you wanna face another backup from OSU? You know what happen last time right....
  11. I got a 2 for 1 on a couple of used ones. I ain't sitting in those fuckers so what do I care. Gas can is full.
  12. This is what Danny Boy said on Tuesday. Then he had that abortion of a press conference last night. Fucking idiot. No one throws their people under the bus and takes no blame like Dan Mullen. Well, except for you know who.
  13. Fuck Dan Mullen and his scout team comment. What a pussy. Ohio State played their last two games without 23 and 22 players including many key starters. The backups came in and did their jobs. Learn to develop your roster you fucking arrogant ass.
  14. Agree with the above and with the leaves off of the trees now I don't see the route as very scenic.
  15. The Hope Solo?
  16. Cabernet Sauvignon is a great aging wine and will improve If you hold it. The quotes are from two different reviewers. The second paragraph is Robert Parker. I would hold it at Least five years. It’s a travesty to drink great wines too young before they develop. The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is flat-out sensational and literally jumps out of the glass. Blackcurrants, crème de cassis, bay leaf, scorched earth, graphite and kiss of spring flower nuances give way to a powerful, concentrated, yet ethereal 2014 that glides across the palate. It's one of the more structured, tannic wines from Chris and really need 3-4 years or cellaring to shine, but it's going to evolve beautifully. From the micro-terroir of the W. S. Keyes Vineyard on Howell Mountain, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is pushing perfection. Its incredibly opaque color is followed by notes of lead pencil shavings, mulberry, blackberry and dark raspberry fruit, some background oak and minerality, and profound richness in a full-bodied, multi-dimensional style. It is gorgeously ripe, and sexy already, with a lush and voluptuous texture. Drink it over the next 25+ years.
  17. The reduction of any quarter has been reduced to 25%.
  18. Dopi’s on Hidalgo makes a hell of a lobster burrito.
  19. New Stimulus Package PPP language begins on page 25. From an email I received from our friend at that little bank in south Texas. Eligible Entities Have a Second Chance to Receive a PPP Loan Many borrowers have requested a second round of PPP loans, and many potential borrowers who were unable to receive a PPP loan during the first round would like to have access to a PPP loan. The proposed bill allows new and old borrowers to receive a PPP loan if they meet the requirements of an “eligible entity.” An “eligible entity” will need to satisfy the “Necessity Test” that is discussed in my blog post dated May 4, 2020 “Was Your PPP Loan ‘Necessary’? If Not, There Could Be Horrific Repercussions” as of the time of applying for this new second loan. This test, which is based upon whether the loan is “necessary to support the on-going operations of the applicant” will be hard to meet by businesses that have survived one or two hard quarters but are now making ends meet while waiting for the vaccines to clear our economy up. The test will clearly not be passed by a high percentage of PPP borrowers who will otherwise qualify, and will present a very important issue to be carefully addressed with the borrower’s CPA, financial and legal advisors. While the SBA has announced that it will not question the necessity issue for those who have aggregate borrowings not exceeding $2 million, other agencies, or even whistleblowers, may, and the fact that a second loan has been received will not be kept confidential. Assuming that the necessity test will be met, the next question is whether the PPP borrower is an “eligible entity” which the bill defines as a Schedule C taxpayer (but apparently not a Schedule E landlord or a Schedule F farmer), an LLC or other entity treated as an S corporation or partnership that meets the following requirements: The borrower must demonstrate that there was a 30% reduction from the gross receipts of the entity during the same quarter in 2019. For the purposes of this 30% rule, gross receipts will include all revenues from the normal operation of the business before subtraction of expenses but will not include amounts borrowed, including amounts received for PPP loans. The borrower must employ no more than 300 employees, or meet an alternative size standard. The proposed Rubio-Collins bill (“HEALS Act”) that did not pass, would have required a 50 percent reduction from gross receipts, so this change to 30 percent in the “Emergency Coronavirus Relief Act of 2020" will allow PPP loans to reach a greater number of potential borrowers. For purposes of the above 30% reduction in gross receipts test, borrowers who were not in business during the first, second, or third quarter of 2019 (January 1 - September 30), but were in business during the fourth quarter of 2019 (October 1 - December 31), can compare the first, second, or third quarter of 2020 (January 1 - September 30) to the fourth quarter of 2019. If the entity was not in business during 2019 but was in business by February 15, 2020, then such borrower can compare their gross receipts during the second or third quarter of 2020 (April 1 - June 30) to the first quarter of 2020 (January 1 - March 30) to see if they qualify. Please contact us with questions as they may arrive and we will do our best to get you an answer. Until then, standby for future updates.
  20. Based on the criteria I have seen we will qualify for another round. We were down over 30% in at least one quarter from the same quarter in 2019.
  21. The ATM is fine. Swimsuits should be fine but I'd have a coverup for the women and certainly shirts for the men. It's pretty easy to go to the hotel and get changed and then take a quick cab right to Bastos. Bastos is closed on Thursday but open every other day.
  22. I wasn't a fan of Olivia. At The Joint go for breakfast and get the breakfast mojitos. On the way back hit Soggy Peso. Careful with the matgaritas. Very strong. I believe THursday is cheeseburger day. El Varadero wasn't authentic Cuban food but it was good. At Fredy's I usually get a steak. Mango Cafe for breakfast. I know the people here love Ballyhoo but I've found it to be hit and miss. Still the setting is perfect and the drinks are strong.
  23. If Fredy's and Bastos aren't on your list you need a new list. Fredy is an awesome guy and Bastos is a must eat for the arrachera steak.
