Only when it comes to donuts. Your post made me think of what would happen if Steve owned a donut shop... cream filled everything!

So jealous but I would prefer the "bar."

Yeah, I can't imagine they'd want to keep a trial lawyer on the jury.

Got the Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 today. Haven't had time to play with it much but it is very solid and sexy. Seems to focus pretty well and is pretty quiet. Also, the zoom ring is so smooth.

I haven't noticed a lack of sharpness on my 85 f/1.8. It seems a bit weird to be comparing a 35 and 85 prime though.

I do want some Carnitas from Casa Jacob, please fax some to Texas.

Happy Birthday Jeff!

Unfortunately, I've never tried the Bunnie 12. I would definitely recommend the Laddie 10 though. I just bought my 2nd bottle of it.

That shit sounds scary.

This!

Bacon and egg tacos. Unfortunately, I still can't taste anything due to my cold so it might as well be a pile of mush.

I also love the Peak/Volcano + HD800 combo. I am sure that I probably mentioned this before. You can't really go wrong with the GS-X though and the new ECP Audio Black Diamond sounds very interesting.

^this!

Does one actually drink such an expensive scotch or is it just for looks?

For horrid dynamics, you should go for Ultrasone then.

Yeah, but that looks pretty ugly.

Just saw this, what a shame. RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/03/movies/philip-seymour-hoffman-actor-dies-at-46.html?_r=0

^Why don't you get another RS-1? I know you loved that can. Either that or get the PS500. I would personally stay away from the HiFiman stuff but that is just me.

Good job Mike! I really should try one of the younger HPs - it's just that the 18 is so good...

I love the HP 18 and will probably buy another bottle every time I run out. Have you had Talisker 18 Stretch? It isn't really like the HP but it is fantastic - one of my favorites!

Thanks for the link, I should make an account. I probably should keep track of them before I forget. I'm interested in the Hakushu, I saw a bottle of the 12yr here and it was wondering about it. My first bottle of Japanese whiskey was Hibiki which I love. My second bottle was Yamazaki 12yr which was good but didn't blow me out of the water. I'm having the Glendronach 15 right now and it is very nice. I like the Aberlour A'bunadh more though. I haven't been a huge fan of Balvenie so far. I got a sampler pack of the 12/15/21. The 12 was fine, the 21 was better and the 15 I liked the most of the three but maybe not enough to buy a whole bottle. It isn't too hard to get samples of the Balvenie stuff and I would probably do that before buying a bottle.

I have some Hibiki and it is great, very different than anything else I have had. Would any of the mod be willing to switch this title to Scotch-Case?

Coconut oil in steel cut oats is pretty great.
