    I'm a few miles west/southwest of you, and we've had 2-3 coral's show up in our neighborhood this spring. Data is not the plural of anecdote, but that's more than the last few years for sure.

    I've found you to be a reasonable poster, BamaChick. Please know that this post, pointed at this particular person, is way off. I say that respectfully, and this doesn't need to turn into an "is not! is to!" conversation, but it's just way, way off.

    This might be the funniest fucking thing I've ever read. Not just on Surly ... anywhere.

    Dr.Beeper is clearly Derka.

    I'll always have Florida.

    This is even more fun of a chart if you put up what the second-place record holder has as a stat. He's ~900 points ahead of second place in all-time points, for example (Jagr).

    It was indeed a HUGE bomb. Butler won the overall engagement, for sure :).

    Butler isn't right, Butler's a bitch for saying anything. Jimenez is supposed to just lay down and not try and help his pitcher? Fuck that. I'm not sure why Jimenez was so amped up about it, though. Both of them said their piece, Butler handled it better by far (not the homerun, just the 'step out and shut up.')

    If you mix all the colors, you just get black.

    completely agree with this. There's a hole in the wall place near my inlaws (directionally towards kerrville) that I stop in every time. I don't know the folks by name, but I always buy something, and I always ask about Blantons, Weller 12/BP, and Eagle Rare. Last time I was in there, there was a bottle of Antique just sitting on the shelf - fucker had DUST on it. I bought that with the quickness. I've found Eagle Rare and EHTSiB the same way. Crazieness.

    you're sort of an asshole. Oh, I just forgot these three ungettable bottles, and three super-rare bottles in the garage. Sheesh. Might as well just give them to me, to make yourself feel better.

    I somehow finagled my way onto the Blanton's list at my nearby Spec's. They call once a year or so, and I get a bottle. I don't even remember how it happened - I think it was because I was asking about bottles in a knowledgeable way, and I made it clear I was buying to drink, not to resell. But when I was there, my goal wasn't to get on a list, it was just to find some bourbon. Also, this particular specs seems to be "nicer" than most .. usually when I go into a Specs and ask about "have anything fun in the back?" I get an incredibly snarky brush off. It's comical - they're just dicks.

    This is encouraging news ...

    Lol. I'm just not good enough to rope hook a 3w far enough ... have to try the driver otherwise I'm hitting 6i into that green and that's no recipe for success.

    Probably going back this Friday AM. Gonna hit the same club then, too.

    Easy double.

    There's only one answer to this question.

    quoting an older post, but played there Saturday AM. It's worth the drive. Greens might be as good as I've ever seen them - turns out, getting a 3-4 week break from a packed tee-sheet, along with a warm spring and a few heavy storms means the grass will grow. They're a little light on the social distancing stuff, but I wore a mask for all the checkin/pro shop time, and took my own hand sanitizer, and felt safe. Range is open, one-rider-to-a-cart. Beware that if they run out of carts, you have to walk ... so book an early tee time, or shoot for the 11-12 timeframe (for when the early tee times start to finish up).

    Just wanted to chime in here and give thanks for being raised in a family of generally handy people. I'm no master craftsman, but I put together two shelves in the laundry room today at the request of the wife, made entire from "shit I had laying around the garage," and they look damn good. The goal is to be functional, but they're well thought out, strong AF, and cleaned up nice with a bit of caulk afterwards. As I jokingly texted my dad, they're even "about 92% level." Love seeing everyones projects on this thread. Keep it going. I'm soon to start converting my walk-in attic to a golf sim room and theater. That's a much bigger project lol. I have what I need to get started, but i'll rapidly need to go to HD so I'm waiting until there's a BIT more clarity on CV19 before I really dig in. It should perfectly align with the weather getting balls hot again (neat).

    The saddest part of this thread is realizing that there are no Brandy Perryman highlights on Youtube.

    Wind power turbines in the background - would not play.

    If this is HQ+Zith I'm gonna lose my mind.

    This. I will say the new FlexVolt gear seems to be pretty badass. Can run 60V in things like the circsaw, but only 20v elsewhere. I found a bundle with the Circ Saw that included two 60/20v batteries and a charger, I bought another 60/20V, and already had a charger previous. Also have the impact driver, hammer drill, jigsaw and an extra drill-driver. Will soon add the dremel, work light, and sawzall (I have corded versions of all three, but I just don't see the need for my lightweight household tasks). I'll also say that DeWalt isn't what it used to be. For general household use, I really think any of the house-brand brushless 20V+ sets will do you right. GottaB's collection looks awesome. Basically, pick one, and buy all the tools and buy good batteries.
