OMG, I am watching the Arizona-Cal game, and Arizona has a kicker named Zendajas. I thought that bloodline left us a generation ago.

So, I wonder whether Ali Haji Sheikh's (Shank's) children are kicking... :rolleyes:

I wasn't wondering so much about your commute as just the inherent marketability to the next guy. Buses aren't too bad even in rush hour, with their privileges, really, and PA terminal to 5th ain't bad.

Any way, it sounds great. Now you have to locate and read a copy of:

In other news, I should have guessed that, this being Potato-land, that the restaurant/distillery would make vodka (:rolleyes:). However, they did have an impressive selection of microbrews, and there's nothing like enjoying a nice 9lb. Porter when it's 28 degrees outside. :D

I, naturally, opted for the garlic mashed potatoes as my side-dish to accompany a chorizo sandwich. It was as close to a religious experience as eating potatoes will ever get.

Place is called Bardenay, for those doing GEG runs in the near future. Less than 100yds from teh Hampton. ^

Dinner 2 was corned beef and cheddar jack on potato and rosemary artisan bread.

My football included beef chorizo with eggs, which was a great thing.

Yup. Apparently, much to my surprise, all 50 states are not police states.

I like my booze to have flavor, hence why I drink dark beers, gin, bourbon, rum, and scotch.

Gin -- a few of us had a rather good time with a bottle of gin in MUC last week ;) ... I think I easily quadrupled my prior lifetime consumption of gin that night.

There's nothing wrong with having a Gin & Tonic for breakfast. How Bloody Marys and Mimosas got tagged as acceptable morning beverages, I'll never know.

As for together, I'm hoping to stick just to beer (but lots of it) for PRG DO. Things could get out of :rolleyes:, otherwise. I already fear :rolleyes:v has karaoke plans...

Vodka does have flavor. If I'm not in the mood for clear booze, I go to tequila.

It's the beverage of choice for those that are seriously upset with their livers. :-:

I have previously posted about my am beers today at a football game. Jack & Coke would have been fine, and I saw some consumed before 10...
