A Blackthorn Cocktail (this one from "Vintage" and quite different from the Anvil-Irish Blackthorn). Not really sure how I feel about this drink yet. 2 oz Old Raj gin 3/4 oz Dubonnet Rouge 3/4 oz Schwarzwalder Kirschwasser

I can offer you no advice (I think phones don't like to go swimming). Just wanted to say that I hope Jack is ok.

Most excellent news Nate!!!!

Very well IMO. Unfortunately, I haven't found any recently so I won't be able to compare it directly until then.

Nothing wrong with Napa + Cab + ribs! Nice. Yesterday, I found a bunch of Burton Baton I put aside last year.

Fax is on, please send a CR2!

Margarita

I use Bob's Red Mill SCO and it takes about 20 minutes on the stove (after the water has boiled). Making them in the microwave sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

^^ That is what I do.

Same here (except with berries and brown sugar) - steel cut oats rock!

Going camping/hiking?

Sizzling Cinnamon flavor Jelly Belly jelly beans

Good looking stuff Mikey, Raffy, and Al. Earlier: Real Ale Lost Gold IPA on draught (not my pic) Now: 2008 La Posta Pizzella Malbec (also not my pic) - good but I think I might prefer the Cocina.... could just be the meal though.

Impressive (as usual). If you drink all that you aren't going to remember much of the weekend.

Mike: You sure you got the right day and time, where is everyone? Seriously, congrat and have fun!

Glad the procedure went well Ken! Hope there is no part three.

Unfortunately, I just canceled my order. :( Some expenses came up last night that were unexpected so I will have to put off getting the GF2 for now.

Same as Jim plus... (deal at B&H) Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 Digital Micro Four Thirds Camera W/14-42mm Lens (Black) + Panasonic PA45200 45-200mm f/4-5.6 G Vario MEGA O.I.S. Lens for Micro Four Thirds SLR *Hoping* to get slightly better pictures than the LX5 (especially with moving subjects with low light) with a slightly smaller camera than the D90 + 18-200 lens (for some travel)

Nothing from threadless (Dusty)?

Snakes like good wine.

Got the Gator in the mail today and it is much nicer in person (and I *love* the olive color). Vicki mentioned that it was the perfect size for a gym bag and she was right... it is the perfect size (for me). Looks like the Sunchaser will be only getting used when I need to carry the squash or tennis racquet. A picture next to the Sunchaser, Tom Bihn ID, and Tom Bihn (small Cafe bag) which I had in my office.

But are you drinking it in your undies?

Just wait for round three! Back to Anvil for me. Stinger 9/4 oz Maison Surrenne cognac 3/4 oz bright green Marie Brizzard Creme de Menthe Pretty good for a super minty green drink. I would probably do a 4:1 instead of 3:1 ratio and wouldn't bother wasting Maison Surrenne on this next time though.

Nice!
