Hi Lloyd, how are you and the family doing? RIP Sen. McCain.

We had floating islands at The Progress last night. But no cupcakes. Or cookies. Or pizza. And Dusty...no, it won't.

Impressive menu and execution.

All of them, obviously.

Belated birthday greetings Ian!

Was that the whole shelf? Not much to get excited about to my mind. High West Rendezvous Rye used to be a regular rye for me. I don't like most of their other expressions. You might like Bourye as a bourbon-rye mix. Similarly Basil Hayden Two by Two is a blend. I think Knob Creek Rye has a pretty good bite like their bourbon. I dislike these, or think they are not worth buying: Hudson Manhattan Templeton Michters (most of them) Russell's Reserve 

That steak knife should have been slammed through the burger, Crocodile.

I pass out in the papasan chair. Gene has the classic Poang Passout

You're so right!

Rest in Power, Queen Aretha. ?

That is very scary, Antonio, but I am so glad to hear they are alright and avoided that fate. RIP to Chef Joel and the bridge victims. ?

Nice! Who's next?

Belated birthday greetings Todd! I hope you ate many ill-advised foods just because you can! Cheers! :Dan:

¡Feliz cumpleaños belatedos! I hope you had a fabulous day Antonio. Cheers! :Dan:

Strategery!

Didn't Jim predict France would take the final? ? Vive la France!

Now I know what to tell Santa this year! Thanks Knucks!

I'm feeling good about France's chances, although I mostly wanted to say that because of the rhyme. Allez les Bleus!

Nice! I had some awesome poutine with duck confit on top yesterday at Duckfat. Great duck fat frites and brisket panini too.

Happy birthday! Cheers :Dan:

Happy birthday Mike! Hope it has been a great one! Cheers! :Dan:

Happy birthday Viking Baker! Cheers! :Dan:

Seal of approval

I understood that you were praising Birgir and attacking some douche who was on this forum for a hot minute five years ago. I don't think anyone attacked you at all -- at least not a true Head-case bitch slap -- and Wink just makes bad jokes. Stick to pork belly futures because you obviously can't hack it here.
