  1. If you stay in Cruz Bay there are busses to take you to the beaches. Most notably, Trunk Bay which has a snorkeling area and is a drop dead gorgeous beach. You can rent a day charter to go around St John. I recommend Rockhoppin Adventures. If you take your passport you can visit some of the BVI on a day charter or you can just tool around St. John and snorkel. If you do that have lunch at Lime Out VI. If you looking for a rowdy time and do a day charter into the BVI there's Soggy Dollar Bar on Jost van Dyke and further out on Norman Island is The Willy T which is the single most raunchy and rowdy bar I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. Anything goes so if kids are with you do NOT go to the WIlly T after 3 PM. In Cruz Bay there are plenty of bars and restaurants you can walk to. The Beach Bar and Joe's Rum Hut are now open again. For dinner Extra Virgin is a must. It's probably the best meal on the island right now with Zozo's closed due to Irma. Rent a jeep and go across the island to have lunch at Skinny Legs. Morgan's Mango also serves up a very good meal. There are plenty of other bars and restaurants in Cruz Bay but those are the highlights. Trunk Bay
  2. St. John is a million times better than St. Thomas. Check out the Westin on St. John if you absolutely have to do all-inclusive. That said I would rent a condo at Grande Bay where you can walk to everything Cruz Bay has to offer.
  3. Yep. My son wanted to go to DC for his birthday dinner Friday. My wife won't eat inside. We will eat at a restaurant in NOVA because I have no desire to be harassed and ridiculed while trying to celebrate my sons birthday.
  4. I’m 59. Schotzie lived to be 12. Beethoven dropped dead on a walk at 8. He was a fantastic dog but died too soon. We lost Ruffas and Lola in 2018. Both to cancer. Ruffas was 11 and Lola was 10. Beethoven, Ruffas and Lola were all rescues and were at least a year old when we got them. I was 26 when we got Schotzie as a puppy. We’ve had a Giant Schnauzer continuously with very short breaks between except after Ruffas and Lola. We waited 9 months after Ruffas died. Losing two in three months to cancer was tough on us. We got Eli last July at 1 year old. I hope he’s with us a long time. It’s a big breed so we know the lifespan isn’t terribly long.
  5. That's about where we are. We're on our 5th Giant Schnauzer and Eli seems to have all of the good traits of the others in him.
  6. Right now Caneel Bay won't open until at least 2022. Little Dix Bay does appear to have opened back up. Bitter End Yacht Club is still being rebuilt from Irma.
  7. You do the same fucking thing. The only difference is the ones that you post promote your angle. Fucking hypocrite.
  8. Go fuck yourself. You know nothing about me or my beliefs. What a piece of shit comment you just made.
  9. Despite his beliefs he was still murdered in cold blood. Not killed, murdered and murders no matter what your views should be condemned. Just as the stabbings and every other murder should be condemned. ETA: It disturbs and disgusts me that anyone celebrates or condones the taking of another life.
  10. Add FaceBook to that. The only social media I look at is a couple of forums and none of them are political by nature.
  11. Not triggered at al. You were the one that seemed triggered. There's bad shit happening in a lot of places and the bad shit isn't limited to one group.
  12. Are you disputing the videos or that what they are displaying occured? Otherwise, what's your point? bad-teammate posts plenty of videos from a different perspective. It's up to you to be able to take them all in and draw your own conclusions unless you're only interested in one side of what's going on.
  13. The only person saying this is you. What we are saying is that there has to be personal accountability as well. This is true of whites, blacks, Hispanics and everyone else in the world. But no, you keep blaming everything on the system and whites and draw your conclusions.
  14. So is the humidity controlled in the room? I ask because if I store my guitar in the case with the D'Addario humidipaks in the case the guitar holds tune much better. If I keep it out on the stand it has to be tuned much more often. I like it on the stand because I'm forced to see it and much more likely to spend time with it.
  15. My son got me this kit. Folding the bottom layer over and using the rolling pin gives it a nice seal. You want a nice boil when you put them in the water. I use a slotted spoon so I'm not dropping them. The boil should not be a violent boil and 90 seconds is the cook time I use. Remove with slotted spoon.
  16. It is but when you slide the plastic tip down it lines it up for the bolt to go through. No fiddling around trying to find the hole in the butterfly. They're very easy to install. But yeah, a different version of a toggle bolt.
  17. If you're not hitting a stud butterflies work great and the weight of a guitar is nowhere near capacity.
  18. I'm going to tackle lobster ravioli next. I've gotten my ravioli making skills up to par so it's time to elevate.
  19. Fuck off. That isn’t what I said or alluded to and you know it. You’re more worried about proving your point and your “side” than trying to reach resolution.
  20. Are the odds that much different for poor white people, or poor Hispanics?
  21. This shit is getting old. What you mean to say is that there is no clear path for poor black people. Those that choose the same path over and over and over again. Yeah, odds are stacked against them but odds have been stacked against immigrants and minorities everywhere for a long. long time and those that choose to do do and those that don't don't. Jesus Christ, people have to have some accountability for themselves and their lives and the path they choose. Choose a fucking decent path and things just might turn out alright for you. That ok with you, comrade? Or would you rather continue to blame everyones problems on anyone but themselves? Yes, there need to be social changes but goddamn the shit you spew is ridiculous at times.
  22. My comment was not in reference to that video. It was posted about the video where protestors are trying to block people from taking videos.
