    Wine

    What you saw a lot this last year in the wine business was that due to COVID putting a severe strain on the restaurant industry, a lot of those wineries that focused most or all of their efforts in the restaurant sector all of a sudden had a large supply of wine with no place for it to go. There are many wines that wineries would historically say were "restaurant only" and even then, only the top restaurants. So then a lot of of these wines were all of a sudden being offered to key retailers so that wineries could move through inventory knowing that the next vintage would be released soon. Wineries were making pitches to Costco that would never allow Costco to sniff their inventory before. Wine clubs became another great avenue to move inventory, and that usually comes with a more aggressive cost. Not exactly sure if that is the case with Emmolo Merlot, but $30 seems pretty aggressive from a small family wine shop. On another note: I have a friend who frequents Underground Cellar. I am not sure how it all works but my understanding is there are lots you can blindly buy and every once in a while the slip in a rare bottle. They fucking shipped him a bottle of DRC Richebourg 2016. Kermit Lynch has it listed for $2400. He doesn't even know where to start as far as trying to sell it.

    I don't think it is one way or another. They have Caymus, Conundrum, Mer Solieil etc under their umbrella. I see the Emmolo Merlot at Total wine for around $55. Same for HEB. So if you got it for $30, I think you got a nice deal.

  4. Saw that BBQ snob posted from Hutchins BBQ in Frisco and that John Mueller was working there.
  5. Link to one of the twins showing off titty is on a tweet that replied to Evil Dicks Twitter. I can’t link it without the images popping up on Tapa, so I won’t.
  6. Nonna is the right call.
  7. Winning is hard sometimes
  8. Has there ever been a worst week 1 HOH? Jesus. He was absolutely terrible In every decision
  9. Couple of his friends are saying maybe bull shark.
  10. Friend of a friend caught it in Rockport yesterday (near mud island) under some birds on a soft plastic. Said it was 3-4 ft long.

    That guy’s mustache is greatest thing on TV right now
  12. My original thought was not to take the dice challenge so that there wasn’t an even bigger target on his back after week two.
  13. Is it a lot better than the 1604 / Redlands location? Because I have been there more than once and thought it was very below average.
  14. At first I thought maybe he would be crafty this season but I seem to be wrong.
  15. She has a lot to offer in the T&A department...

    I know that United Market Street carries it
  17. Yeah man. We usually hunker down with a couple of bottles of red wine and laugh our ass off each Friday night and text the other two couples we know that watch it Lat- if you haven’t caught any previous seasons, it really is worth watching them as well as this current season. You can watch at same time, no cross over. So far this season of pretty tame compared to some of the earlier ones
  18. You know it. That ass hanging out the shorts was nice. Told the wife I was ordering her some just like that. I feel so bad for Daonte because he wants a piece of that pussy so bad and he ain’t going to get it. The little 4’10 spinner seems fun. Stan’s gal is looking pretty rough right now. Maybe she can bounce back.
  19. If I could make sweet love to a pizza, it would be the Pork Love pizza at Dough.
  20. It just will not stop raining at the coast. POC is full of water and more coming. I cut my trip short because we simply couldn’t stay on the water. Got the 12 yr old to wade fish with us for the first time yesterday. We found a couple of tailing reds on a shoreline and he threw over at them and immediately hooked up. Pretty happy that he is now excited about fishing and has declared wade fishing the way to go.
  21. That kid on the right does not seem gruntled at all with that mess of fish
