"Budget" tequila for party margaritas
For future reference. Espolon. Yes.

And now what did you do TODAY?
It's one of my few drinks left in "Forgotten". I've ordered it twice online from two places, both never sent it (or it got intercepted somehow).

Name that Drink
So, I have another one. I wish I had an anjeo tequila to try in this one, but as is it's tasty. Not sure on the bitter choice, but I don't have a lot to choose from. Definitely needs Jim or Al or anyone else to take a stab at it. (no name, but a Spanish twist on Monte Carlo would work) 2 oz tequila 1/2 oz Benedictine 2 dashes Peychauds 2 dashes grapefruit bitters Stir!

HC/F1 In Austin 11/18/2012
So, I'm very excited and the opportunity to host something for HC. I am in the perfect location with respect to the track location and the airport, meaning that we will run into very little traffic en-route. Unfortunately, I'm not close to much else That being said, we just need to plan accordingly. I have plenty of room and can easily house 20 or so people I'd think. All that I really require is convincing my wife that this is a good idea, whether that means a hotel for her and the kids, or a maid service afterwards On thing that would be helpful to know, even though we're a while off from this would be how long would people consider staying? What's the event schedule look like? I'd recommend at least one night downtown. Other options are Lockhart, the lake, brewery/distillery tours, etc.

Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
So, I'm looking for a part recommendation. I used to be able to find a certain brand 0.25" QC female connector that had an insulated outside that I could pull off (usually by putting the female part on a male stud and pulling real quick), then I could solder the wire to the connector (not crimp) then put the outside part back on. These days, none of the ones I've found will allow the outside to be as easily removed. Anyone have a good part they use? Perhaps the better idea is to just heat shrink a bare connector? The connector will be carrying mains voltages, at about 3A.

Gran Classico?

Nice Al! The Chinato can be found around here now, it's not cheap though. It has a very distinct flavor, very nice stuff. Looks like yours is a split though, which is better than the $75/1L here is suppose.

It doesn't have an overly distinct Reposado flavor. It has a more mellow almost fruity flavor? Regardless I'm happy with it

Margarita First impressions of the Espolon are very positive, considering the low price tag.

Post the last thing you bought!
Went out to buy a $60 bottle of Tequila and came back with a $18 bottle. More at 8.

How does the frequency response sound? Flat? Or a upper mid range and midbass double peak?

Do you have any that I sold you? I still have a whole mess of these and they all work fine. Anyone interested in paying $10 each? :)

It won't take long. I bet you'll find some once all of these T2 start getting built. I give you until the end of the year.

That just means that V_(BR)DSX is in range. For example, I'd expect an IRF610 to have the same number for this test. Also, there are plenty of other devices as well. Unfortunately, you haven't really established much with this test. If it fails, yeah that's great. If it passes, you still have reasonable doubt.

How are you using the tester? The only way to know for sure is a curve tracer. This tester isn't going to be 100% reliable, it just will weed out the obvious fakes.

That absolutely won't work. You need a custom PCB this case.
