  1. I don’t want to sound like a broken record, but I’ll just say that I love the product and abhor so much about how the process to get some of it has evolved. And I absolutely believe every asshole that got in line at any point before the store was open is to blame for a big part of that. The collecting, hoarding, and gloating is cringe worthy. I’ve been guilty of it myself in the past but I’m done with that shit.

    That is how I feel at this point. I gave away about 20 bottles of relatively hard to find stuff to friends over Christmas - I travel a fair amount and can find things that others cannot, but rather than hoard I’d rather share the wealth. My new year resolution is to drink and enjoy what I have, and not worry about what I don’t.

  2. Stopped at a hole in the wall in Mineral wells.
    $150 for Blanton’s
    $140 for BT Kosher Wheat
    $60 for ER
    Would have paid a little premium for the Kosher but not that much.

    The store on the west side likes museum pieces based in their prices. The store on the east side used to be a little over MSRP but is usually overpriced now. The store on the south side rarely has anything but sells at MSRP.
  3. Costco has absolutely saved my ass moving to Maui. It’s only the two of us and it’s still the only place we shop pretty much. Prices barely higher than at home whereas at a Safeway here you’re looking at $8 loaves of wheat bread and $6/dozen eggs. 

    Plus you get Costco bourbon unlike those of us in Texas where we can’t have nice things…

  4. I will look when I get home, I may have one. I’m in Santa Fe but headed home tomorrow. Local store in SF has several of the OF 1910 and 1920’s. for @ $59 and $65.

    I’ve got a couple I could trade for a Weller FP. Send me a dm and we can figure out details.
  5. "They" meaning announcers who don't really know the NCAA rule book or the officials' mechanics. 
    Ole Miss got screwed on this call. Even the players thought it was a dead ball. Especially since it allegedly included an "inadvertent whistle" by one of the flanks who ruled the pass incomplete. This SEC crew blew this one badly.
    With no instant replay, the down should've been replayed. It's amazing to me they'd screw this one up so badly with access to multiple camera angles. You can't definitively say this pass was backwards. 

    Is it too much to ask for consistency in how the rules are applied? Because, based on evidence, there is no acceptable standard on what the fuck the rules mean.
  6. These are the ones I have:
    Luxrite 5/6 Inch LED Recessed Retrofit Downlight, Trim (6 Pack) https://a.co/d/7cWRfWt
    They sell them at Home Depot as well in 4pks. Install was like minute each tops. HD has install directions. Likely a video online too.

    I’ll second this. Installed these in enclosed cans in a closet where the LED bulbs kept burning out. Cheap, easy install. I am gruntled. Plan to replace the rest of the cans in the house when I run through my stockpile of bulbs.
