Never met him and didn't even regularly watch his show, but this really hurts. I'm a big believer in the feeling of community around shared food and wine and he seemed to embody that philosophy. RIP
That's some baller shit right there. MacDonald, Seven Stones and Notre Vin are definitely solid Napa wines I've liked in limited tastings/drinking. Big ass cab trip
I don't see a clear 2nd tier. I just see Kansas and then the rest. Maybe OU will be terrible so in their own 4th tier, but I'm not sure WV and K St are clearly better than Baylor, Tech and UT at this point. Need to see the new faces and how teams look.
I would like a bottle of the Widwinter's Night Dram shown above. really liked it the couple of times i've tasted.
I've decided, in general, I don't love bourbon enough to spend the $$ and the time to get all the unicorns. I have a distant cousin who has made a fortune in west texas oil fields and he recently bought up in New York 5 bottles of the Taylor 4 Grain bourbon. He had them delivered to my sister's office since they wouldn't ship to Texas and he's going to pick them up himself in the next couple of weeks. My sister saw the invoice and he paid $375/bottle. F that noise.
Agree, next year's Jayhawk roster looks stacked on paper. outside shooting I guess might be a weakness? who knows on the freshmen
Baylor will be better next year.
there is a difference in lifeguard certification for deep and shallow pools? news to me, as all 3 of my kids were lifeguards starting at 15 and all worked at our local pool with deep end and diving board.
serious question, as I don't remember, but were the Bulls underdogs in any finals? I know their first was against an aged and injury depleted Lakers squad. I remember them beating Utah and Portland in series, two teams that didn't win a title in that era. They beat Utah twice, right? One game I know they won by 50 points. They beat Phoenix once, I think, Barkley's best team. and I googled and their other title came against Seattle. so they didn't beat any team that had any championship pedigree except the Lakers, and that team was done until the Kobe years.
Ate at Nobie for the first time Saturday night. I had actually never heard of this place, somehow. We loved our experience. Very good food, great wine list, excellent service, interesting cocktails. hard to beat

You are correct, food was spectacular and they have a "waiting lounge". We had reservations, so didn't go into the lounge and didn't even know about it until we walked outside to meet our Uber and we saw a waitress bringing a couple out of there.
Absolutely loved our meal. Delicate and interesting and layers of flavor at every turn.
This is a good one, same for me. I'd have to agree with others on The Big Lebowski. Bored the shit out of me the first time for some reason. who knows why.
Three Amigos is another. Saw it in the theater and thought it was a snoozer. Watched it again a couple of years later on VHS and I was howling. No idea what was up with me the first time I saw it.
