  1. i kind of understand her emotions this season. new lioness was forced on her and her participation forced on them. dea guy forced on her and is a complete fuckup with everything he says and touches. the premise of both seasons is a little sketchy, last was a little more probable. this one almost laughable - fake a daughters dishonorable discharge and send her home to daddy like she's going to go from badass army pilot to living in her parents basement. like he's going to fall for that. he already seems skeptical. turning him seems more likely than spying on him and killing him, so it just got a little more believable than the first few episodes where they expected her to participate in the incarceration or murder of her family.
  2. does anyone have an idol? where are they all? seems like theyve been less of a factor this season than any.
  3. leaders: genevieve, kyle, sam, rachel bottom: sue, teeny in between: andy, caroline
  4. went to tejas two weeks ago and la last week, both outstanding. tejas was every bit as good as franklin - brisket, burnt ends, chile relleno sausage, pork ribs, turkey, beans, potato salad, carrot soufflé. the beans and carrot souffle were the only things that didnt jump out as excellent. la's brisket was as good as you will find anywhere. sausage was dry and crumbly and subpar. mac and cheese was one of the best bbq sides ive had in years.
  5. kyle seems like a good dude, so would love this, but nice guys dont usually win this. kind of reminds me of hunter from last season. i'm betting on genevieve although she might be strategizing a little too hard. maybe take a backseat and let someone else orchestrate the next few votes.
  6. she came very close to winning immunity in the challenge too. still too much of a target on her back though. for some reason they others seemed to be threatened by them.
  7. my bottom four - little to no shot: andy, teeny, sue, gabe.
  8. took out one of the major players last night. their other choices were excellent also - sam or the rachel. andy is one of the most interesting players in a while. not sure what to make of him. he was so in his own head he walked by 10-20 bamboo tubes without seeing them. to be aware enough to know he was being used by sierra and sam was wise though.
  9. you could stop with this list, but i'll add la fogata, el mirador, la fonda on main, mi tierra's.
  10. if there is a season 3 sounds like emily/angela/parwan will be the main character. as she said, "i'm in charge now". sad to see bridges, lithgow, and brennanan get reduced, but hopefully lithgow's ex still plays a big role.
  11. whatever happened to black maple hill. 10 years or so ago i had a bottle and thought it was excellent. then i heard they changed their sourcing and it went downhill. now i never see it or hear anyone talking about it whatsoever.
  12. i know. never have i been so attracted to a stone cold serial killer.
  13. thread title is misleading. is it best spots in the domain or near the domain? completely different list.
  14. thats ancient. must have had dust on it on the shelf. cant believe it was still there. that was one of my faves of the masters collection. the oat one was pretty good too. theyve gone hill ever since they changed the bottle style. not for that price. i have seen and tried the baby jane and its pretty decent and at a way more reasonable price.
  15. is it just me? i'm getting more and more of a crush on sofia with each episode.
  16. Yeah, i think this ones port-finished. i'll probably pull the trigger on it just to try something new. always good to have a bottle you can open without remorse.
  17. what does anyone know about fortuna and thomas moore bourbons. seems like i remember hearing good things but both would be a first time purchase for me. the plus side is i would probably open and drink both instead of collecting and letting it gather dust.
  18. you fuckers are starting to piss me off. i'm buying one next time i'm in bardstown.
  19. you dont think kishan needed to go? he was running the game. brilliant move by genevieve. she just moved to the top.
  20. i dont think farrell deserves it as much as the makeup artist does. he is unrecognizable. when gary oldman played churchill, you could still tell it was him. this is amazing.
  21. sounds right. looking at it online now the cheapest single barrel i see is $700 for a 6-yr.
  22. i was at the gift shop but didnt remember any for sale. about how much were they selling for? the bar had hundreds of purple tops. its one of my favorite bourbons ever. i feel like ive seen it online in the $400 range, but even as good as it is i'll never spend that much on a bottle of bourbon. probably the most ive ever paid was $250.
