This sounds good, and something I have all the ingredients for!  Well, I don’t have Powers, but I guess Jameson or Tullamore Dew will work.

Yeah, I was hoping I could get the wife to watch this with me, but she can’t tolerate gore AT ALL, so those hopes are dashed.

Texting my dad last night, he’s trying to tell me how worried he is about how amazing Barkley is going to continue to be for them. I simply pointed out that even with the game he was having, the Giants were down 18 at the time, Eli was cooked, and they missed their chance to draft his replacement.

See, that’s the spirit!  Wait, wrong choice of words...

Yeah, I really would have loved SOME explanation as to what was up with that bear.

A neighborhood cat broke in?  Look, just go with me, I’m trying to make it easier for us both to get some sleep.

Praise Beebo!

I have so many questions, too!  Like, is their mascot that terrible that he needs a come-to-God moment?  Does some athletic director really really really want a mascot, and Dave is there to talk him out of it?  Some brief googling tells me that the Calumet College sports teams are the Crimson Wave, so yeah, a mascot…

Could it be a cat?  I can talk myself into the imprint being a cat sitting down, with the thumb and pinky it’s hind legs, and the rest it’s front paws/large belly?  And yes, I’m talking myself into it, because I don’t want it to be a hand print.

Who cares? When is it Legends of Tomorrow o’clock?

And if I’m not mistaken, the FOX announcers immediately derided it too.  Along the lines of “I just don’t understand why they’d do this?”.  I’ve never read any of the rationale behind the move, but it was immediately obvious to me within 15 seconds of thought.

Put even more simply:  generally support Republicans to keep cutting our taxes and regulations, then when they know that all the shit they did while regulations were cut will result in a market crash that will push the Democrats back into power, start giving to the Democrats to grease the skids for that sweet, sweet…

“I think you're the greatest, but my dad doesn't think you work hard enough on establishing credible character motivations."

If you’re talking about the Hoagie Nation show, that’s the show that prompted her exclamation.  And yes, the enthusiasm is mind-blowing.  I know there’s different music for every taste, but like Blues Traveler or something, I thought the most enthusiasm someone could muster for Train would be “Train?  Yeah, they’re…

I met someone recently who stated, without a shred of irony, “I’m just a huge fan of Train.”

Realizing just how tiny the scroll bar on my phone browser was put a giant pit in my stomach.

Thankfully, my wife wasn’t even upset, she said it more matter-of-factly than anything.  I did point out that the birth of a child is more of a quiet joy that the unbridled “FUCKING FINALLY” joy.  Hopefully she’ll understand.

That was me!  Thanks!

I am fairly certain that Total Wine does stock Willett products.  They also get distribution in NJ if you’re willing to cross the bridge.

Willett is easily my favorite rye. While doing some distillery tours in KY a couple of years ago, someone suggested we make sure to swing by Willett, and holy shit are we glad we followed that advice.  We’re just finishing up a bottle of 2 year, with a bottle of 6 year waiting in the wings.
