  1. Thanks, one of the reasons we were so excited about this house was all of the bonus rooms for projects.

    I can place the rest of your LB3 if you’re looking for a “temporary” home...

    Strong recommendation for the OG114. High rye bourbon great for a Manhattan or boulevardier.


    It simply infuriates me that despite quality relationships, consistent hunting and fervent desire, the only attainable bottle in this pic is the OG114.

  3. Let’s fucking hope not - She said it changes year by year and they just step up in proof as its barrel aging until they agree. Seemed very much dependent on what’s left in the rack house, but seeing as it’s virtually impossible to find anyway, I’ll maintain my focus on the rest of the series, which thankfully is readily available.

  4. 1) Jackie is all kinds of cute and you know she’s wild cause she has tats, loves whiskey and has an ex husband

    2) asked her direct about this year’s BB and her expectations VS reality. Said it was the coldest day in years when they picked it, but it was the first batch that she and her tasting partner agreed upon on at initial tasting (he’s a high proofer and she likes it mellow). Said no regrets and feels it’s the perfect representation for OF 150 anniversary. Sadly I don’t live in LA anymore or I would have tried for myself tonight.

    3) Pro-tip, her SiB picks are available for sale at the gift shop if you ask nicely

  5. What are the stained beams for? 

    They’ll go on the back of the shelves to elevate bottles. May decide to miter a track for LED under lighting, but may not be necessary with the same framing out the back walls.

  6. I can’t match some Yankee basement/man cave but I’ll play a weak hand of a home office/mini cave/bourbon vault-closet. Pictures to come when it’s all put together. 

    You’re welcome at this yankee basement any time.
  7. To a degree... modeled it after my favorite bar here in the city, which had obviously been closed for some time.

    Felt like a good period fit for the house... this is what it will look like when completed:

  8. Bumped into a distro at the regular spot today who mentioned new ER and BT SiB dropping in November, so get your wallets ready.

    Meanwhile, today features some tasty mid-tiers:

  9. This is a good BBC article. 
    It's a story of Tony Vargas (a Nebraska State Senator), his father who died of Covid, and Tony's fight to get legislation requiring meat packing plants to adhere to CDC guidelines.  
    Tony is is one of my favorite politicians.  
    It probably could have expanded on this a bit:
    Hours later, after the final gavel had fallen, after the Governor had come to the dais to praise the legislators for passing an abortion method ban and a property tax relief bill, Vargas arrived downstairs in his office. 
    In a special session which was called to deal with the COVID health crisis, the Unicameral passed two major bills: 1) property tax "relief", which will further reduce revenue as the government is having to pull back services, and 2) an abortion bill that restricts what types of abortions are allowed in the second trimester, ultimately requiring women to give birth to a second trimester fetus even if the pregnancy is having medical concerns.  Rather than doing anything to deal with COVID, they passed red-meat bills in preparation of the up coming election.  
     

    Burn the whole thing down...

  10. Quite the list from the Rose Garden shindig   And it’s now come out that a bunch of them were also hanging out indoors at times.
    1. Trump
    2. Melania
    3. Notre Dame President Rev. John Jenkins
    4. Senator Mike Lee
    5. Senator Thom Tillis
    6. Senator Ron Johnson
    7. Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel
    8. Hope Hicks
    9. Kellyanne Conway
    10. Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien
    11. Low-level White House staffer
    12. White House Press Pool Journalist 
    13. White House Press Pool Journalist 
    14. White House Press Pool Journalist 
    Maybe now, more Americans will pay attention to how easily this spreads.  Because in theory, a lot of these people were screened in some capacity and/or taking the rapid tests before this event.

    Calling my shot - That list will be twice as long come Monday.
