Yes, please

Just tried these 2:

And I have to say that I'm very pleased.

The Kru 82 was good with decent flavor for a vodka and a finish that wasn't too rough. The Blysk was an anniversary gift, and it was really good; it had flavor and a very smooth finish, so I've decided it'll compliment my favorite Tito's nicely.

Sure thing, I can do that. Just stopped new tasks on the main rig, so I'll add that over by tomorrow. I'll try to add the i3 too (maybe I can swing the other i7 instead, but I don't want to lose my badge or my star again... took forever to get them back )

I'm drinking a bit of sparkling wine over the Holidays (apparently you can't call it champagne unless the grapes come from Champagne, France). Not much of a drinker at all, but it pairs well with the food and doesn't get you 'faded' unless you seriously over indulge. At ~$30 a bottle it doesn't break the bank either

twilyth · Dec 21, 2014

I normally just get Korbel since they always have that at Costco for like $10-15 but for something in the $30 range, try Veuve Clicquot yellow label. I haven't bought champagne in a while so not sure how much prices have changed but it used to be in the $30-40 range. I think it still is and it's always highly rated.

BUCK NASTY · Dec 21, 2014

I usually drink Andre Extra Dry when I'm in the mood for something "sparkling". $8/bottle and it's got a good kick to it, but shit kinda goes downhill after the 2nd bottle.

I've seen her before and I'm amazed at her ability to recreate. She is a true virtuoso, but can she play anything original?

Good point and question Buck. I have to wonder if she has the ability to compose as well. If she actually does then the future for her will be amazing.

Hi guys, just saying that my new little one has joined the world today, a precious little princess.

It's been a terribly long day, and I hope we get some sleep tonight... But we know that's not going to happen. :laugh:

I jokingly say that you spend the first two years teaching them to walk and talk and the next 16 telling them to sit down and shut up.

twilyth · Dec 23, 2014

Children are sort of like cats . . .

OK, they're really not.

I got nothing. But btw, congratulations. :toast:

edit: no, wait a minute, I take that back, they do have something in common. Some restaurants don't allow children OR small animals. Ha! I knew there was a connection if I just dug deep enough.

stinger608 · Dec 23, 2014
