Not sure if I am too late, Raffy, but the 2011 HH is better than 2010, and the EC18 would be the first choice for me, then 4 Roses then brandy or grand cru--can't recall the difference atm.

I forgot about that, Scott. I actually wrote them a question about it because of the advance sale saying 20 yo and the box or City Beer or somebody said that the whiskey was actually the EC 18 yo. The white wax one is extremely good, whatever was in the cask before the Eclipse.

They did EC 18 two better and made a 20yr, which is probably the standout for me without looking back at notes. 2011 Elijah Craig 12 year Barrel = Purple Four Roses Single Barrel = Red Rittenhouse Rye Barrel = Green Elijah Craig 20 year Barrel = White Brandy Barrel Blend = Burgandy Buffalo Trace Barrel Blend = Yellow Brewmaster’s Grand Cru Blend = Copper I received some shipments this year and can do the same. Hopefully I can look at the futures link before it's past!

Awesome collection of DOTU images in this thread! And I want that cake, btw.

Thanks everyone. This thread will be as much celebrating as I get today because of work madness, but it is great to check in and see all the warm good wishes. I'm lucky to have so many friends here. Delaying any other celebration -- including cocktails, sadly -- until Friday. Fill in for me tonight, OK?

Happy Birthday to my ro-bro! Hope you have a great one and that you get your shiny ass back here and hang out some. Cheers!

Catching up a little: Really nice looking pizza, Ric, but damn you only made that one little green spot for the lovely nursing mother?! Excellent score! Pics, people, pics! x 27, although a Manhattan and cookies sounds pretty fun. OH. MY. GOD. *faints*

Hope you had a good one! Cheers

What she said! Cheers!

lol

Same as every other day, Queen V!

It doesn't take Jim long enough to drink a Sazerac to register a temp change.

I'm ready to sue the shit out of everyone right now. Drawing up a complaint . . .

Happy birthday!

Fuckers!

April Fools isn't far away...

Jim and Peter, glad that all is well and that you have a new big truck to drive. And congrat to each of you on your victories. Haj, that sounds awful and I think I would find a replacement to do my root canal. I have had a few of them and it is painful before they are done. I hope it gets resolved soon. Congrats to Tom and Mrs. Buttons!

Happy Tampa Birthday Fitz!

In glad somebody [else] said it.

Maybe more than Al's amps are flaming...

It's hilarious to me that there is not a single post about the iPad3 announcement going on right now.

I just listened to this the other day and really like it. I don't think I have listened to them before and they usually play Hardly Strictly too.
