Fun!

By the way Greg, what pillow and mattress covers do you use? Every mattress cover we buy eventually rips or disintegrates.

Agreed! The more I drink it, the more I like it. It seems to also mix well.

Would love to come but I will be in NYC or Connecticut that weekend.

Thanks Greg, I am going to try out that air purifier in our bedroom. We really need to get rid of the carpet and put in hard woods floors as well though. We have the mattress and pillow covers already. Claritin never did anything for my allergies. I bought some Zyrtec but never tried it out.

^Nice! Having a Herradura Anejo + Creole Shrubb Orange Liqueur + lime juice + agave syrup margarita.

I think so.

Approved.

I like 1Password - too bad I already own it.

Looks like I have the lowest score in League 1 with 82 points (first pick of the draft) and the highest score of League 2 with 171 points (last pick of the draft). <scratches head>

I second Casa Noble. I haven't had the reposado but their CN anejo is my favorite anejo at this time. Having a variation of Marc's Not Theory. Unfortunately, I didn't have any Gran Classico bitters so I had to sub Campari. It is nice but I think this would have been better with a little less Campari. I especially like the grapefruit peel. 3/4 oz Reposado Tequila (sub Anejo tequila) 3/4 oz Gran Classico Bitter (sub Campari) 3/4 oz Cocchi Torino 1/4 oz simple syrup Stir and garnish with a grapefruit peel.

Jim that is one sweet bar!!! I am so jealous.

Oh. Awesome! I need to get back to rowing again. I am just waiting for summer to end (it was 99 here today and is supposed to be 100 tomorrow).

I <3 Brady. Can I use some of my extra points in league 2 in my league 1 game?

I have read some good things about Avion and Siembre Azul tequilas but have not tried them. Anyone have experience with either of these? Very nice Sazerac Jim!

Jim has had the Partida. I think it is the next tequila I am going to try (athough I will probably get the anejo). Sipping a little Black Bull 12yr after our steak dinner.

OK, after thinking about what Ari and Job said, I ended up ordering the Tokina 100mm f/2.8 macro from B&H on Sunday, it should be here Thursday. The 100mm lens will give me working distance. Also, I decided not to pay more for Nikon/VR since I figure that most real macro I will be using a tripod. I am not a fan of the extending lens, but I can probably put up with it to save ~$500. I may still end up with a Nikon 60mm for a macro/walkaround, we'll see. I wonder how the new Nikon 40mm macro would work as a close-up + walkaround. Probably not as sharp as the 60mm AF-S. I think I noticed that (taking into account that the lens length on the 40mm is shorter than that of the 60mm) the working distance of the 40mm and 60mm was about the same.

Not on Netflix streaming! Oh well, I suppose I can get it on disk when I run out of Dexter and Fringe.

Definitely my favorite city in Indiana. Aside from a great math department, great artwork on campus, and an excellent music school, IU has the world's best mechanical puzzle collection. If you haven't been there, it is a must see (Jerry Slocum Puzzle Collection).

Agreed... a most awesome cocktail. Better late than never:

No more Macallan here.

Whoa! Is this what you put on your Christmas list every year? Definitely approved. I love Margaritas.

It's ok... you'll probably still beat me.

Approved! I bought a small 14" charcoal grill to use in the backyard. Made by a local company in Houston (with most parts from the USA). No use using a large grill for a single steak.
