Happy Birthday Scott!

Happy birthday Justin (even though you so cheater).

At some point I had a plan to build my own compost tumbler. I had a difficult time trying to find a decent priced but sturdy bin to make it out of so today I gave in and bought a Lifetime Compost Tumbler from Lowe's. I started putting it together, thinking that it would actually be easier than building one from scratch. I am not so sure. Do they actually do a practice build before putting these on the market (including screws that are too long for their purpose, etc.)?

In.

Dang, that sucks Ric...

I having no trouble making is disappear.

A Manhattan-like drink... 2 oz Wild Turkey Rare Breed 1 oz Punt E Mes 1 dash Regans' orange bitters 1 dash cherry bitters pretty good.

Wayne, you really are starting to look like Santa!

@Ric: If you want the Parasound back, I would be perfectly happy to sell it back to you. It is awesome but don't really *need* it (and it is a little bit larger than I would prefer to have on my desk). Just let me know.

Congrat Ian!

Unless I have been sleep posting, it is safe to assume I didn't post that. Anyway, why would I know anything about cock bars?

Will look for this. I like Malbec. Jeez Al, you know how to travel!

Wait, wut? What did the edited post say? I usually only edit a post for typos or clarifications, and usually within a minute or so of the original post. What did I miss? Thanks for looking out for me Greg.

Airplane Negronis! Nice. I have been wanting to compare a couple of my favorite DIPAs and got a change to go it today: Dreadnaught and Pliny the Elder. The winner: Dreadnaught, but they are both mighty fine beers.

The Millionaire (slight variation of the recipe in "Vintage") 3/2 oz Smith & Cross rum 3/4 oz Plymouth Sloe gin 1/2 oz R&W Apricot Liqueur 1 fresh squeezed lime

^Nice! SF has some nice cocktail bars.

Al, sucks about the delay. Yep, definitely cuter.

Ok, upon further inspection of the bugs we caught last night, it seems that they are winged carpenter ants. Not sure that it much better though.

Me too. I'll have to see if I can find an aardvark in the back yard.

Found three little holes in the drywall and a some termites in the study today. Not something I want to have to deal with now (or ever really).

Not not not fun. Have a great time Al! Hopefully you'll check in and let us know how the trip is going every once in a while.

I'll have to try it! Liquid gummies, yummies. Having a Casa Noble + Gran Gala Margarita. Very good but I think I prefer it with Cointreau or Grand Marnier.

Does she have red hair?

^^^ I approve of this statement. Looks like he's going to have to go through a lot of Curiosity Cola to get get of all the Branca.
