  1. A family member had a pretty severe stroke almost four weeks ago. They were just recently transferred from in-patient rehab to a sub acute rehab a few days ago. At this point they need way more specialized medical care than what they are currently getting.

     

    I wanted to see if anyone has experience or recommendations for an excellent long term acute health care in either DFW or Austin that deals with stroke care?

     

    Thanks in advance.

  2. I'm headed out to Vegas for a convention in January.  Looking for recommendations on places to stay since my usual, Wynn, is already booked up. Not much into gambling but more drinking, eating, and shows.  My wife will be along for the trip so she will want a nice spa.  And maybe a place that is on the monorail to the convention center would be a bonus.

    For reference we have stayed at the Palazzo and Wynn previously. 

  3. I have variable speed pump. When would I ride it mid or low vs high?

    My pool builder set mine to run from 8am - 10pm at 2850rpm. Seems high but they claim it's what works best. I have been asking them how I can setup two different schedules with a lower rpm and they say that's not recommended? I'm using the pentair ScreenLogic app which you can setup multiple schedules but you cannot tie the pump rpm to the schedule.
  4. Can I has his digits, please?  Lol

    So I want to put together a vertical tasting with some friends this fall.   Everyone will put in a set amount of money then the wine gets sourced.  I’d like the budget to be up to $1k for the tasting but I may get pushback on that.  The tasting will be for 5-6 people.  

    I’m looking for suggestions.  It’s definitely a red wine tasting.  My tastes run to the classic Italian wines but I’m starting to learn (and greatly enjoying) French wines.   While I like California wines they aren’t my favorite but I am also not a fan of fruit bombs though I understand that phase may thankfully be petering out. 
     
    Thanks for any and all suggestions.  

    Depending on what sort of vertical you are wanting you might want to up your budget.
  5. Man, that's pretty special.  I hope your guests appreciated those.
    Noticed the corks look a little worse for wear; wines holding up ok?

    This was a tasting put together by a small group. We sourced the wines from a collector willing to part with them for far less than market value.
  6. They are known to overfill their bottles so these corks are pretty normal. The Leroy wines were great but there were some crazy great wines opened that night! I'm sure I'm leaving some out...
