Boy, that's a lot of soda! Had to look up Incotex ... they look really nice, but I have to agree with Jim on the name. Speaking of Jim, thanks, Jim ...

Any opinions on Ardbeg Alligator? Total Wine has some for $119 a bottle. When I saw Incotex I figured it was time to make fun of some of you but then looked them up and they don't look half bad. I think I'll pass on the ones that sell for $395 however.

I like Alligator - but it is a bit high on the price (for an non-age peat monster). There is a little bit more wood influence, ash and smoke. If they have any I would steer you towards "Airigh Nam Beist" 1990 vintage and will be going away.

Almost grabbed some Caol Ila 12 the other day...fond memories of the 18 too.

But, the last couple "classics" I bought weren't to taste: Highland Park 12 (bitter and not as sweet), Laphroaig 10 (not as phenolic or strong). Another I stopped purchasing was Abunadh. Early batches were so good...

Kinda scared to lose the <smoky bacon fat> in the Caol Ila. Anyone know if it is still a crazy beast?

P.S. Don't drink V.E.P. as fast as I do. (Because then it is gone.)

SPL Phonitor

Fostex HP-P1

Beyer DT1350

HD800

Apple iPod Touch 64GB

I was downgrading/sizing but took a HD800 in as part of a payment for my KGSS and Stax and started enjoying the HD800 so much I thought I needed to get something like the SPL.

These changes are all within the past two weeks. It had been over two years since any previous significant changes.

Oh well, so much for best intentions.

Some small transformers for a new project, what's the smallest Stax amp I can possibly build. Has to be tubes and fully balanced. As if I needed any more projects...

Netgear N900 wireless router to replace my 6 month old Zyxel router and access point.

Amazing that one router nowcovers my whole house and outside better than the two others. I had even bought 2 different types high gain antennas for the Zyxel that were supposed to increase the range.

Thanks. I will be on the lookout for Airigh Nam Beist.

Canon 16-35 f2.8L. I think this is the only non-super zoom L glass I do not own so I figured it might fit nicely as an everyday lens as I am getting tired of dragging around so many primes.

Interesting, I will keep on the lookout for it.

Great minds think alike... We also bought Kasteel Rouge today. Mostly for Debbie's sisters on Thanksgiving. I also was lucky enough to get some Fever Tree Tonic and Ginger Ale as our Binny's started carrying it. Also scored some Peychaud's Bitters and Fee Bros. Orange Bitters. Binny's near us has stepped up their game.
