Sounds exciting, especially for the NFC East games.

It does, but I'd probably drink it once I've had quite a few.

wodka can also be watered down vodka in the former soviet republics, it is generally frowned upon highly as you'd imagine.

Yeah - my original quote was "I should set that as my ringtone with guys from SOCOM call me at the office". That was a very new (first time) behavior with me and the Bolt Browser.

Bolt has robbed others of my intelligent discourse a few times now. The new version is much improved over the previous, especially w/r/t behaving on FlyerTalk.

In case you were wondering where old CO seats go.

maybe I am thinking of another similar word then....i thought wodka is what they called the watery vodka :D

You are polish, no wonder you like the clear liquor :)

wait, you don't like gin or rum?

Indeed...Bolt was unkind to me this morning when I tried posting about the TSO that said "why the f--- do we have to do gate checks when we screened these people five minutes ago" this morning.

Having a Woodford chocolate ball at the hockey game made me rethink my dislike of Woodford. Then again, the taste of most anything can be improved with chocolate. I thought Woodford was glorified cough syrup the first time I tried it.

I agree - for the early morning (e.g. before 0700) they indeed do, including private car services.

Get the sourdough burger or chicken sammich and some mini churros with a strawberry fanta.

I couldn't handle that - had to go more traditional.

I had never heard of a Woodford chocolate ball until now, but it sounds really good...I might have to experiment making one.

Good evening, Box. It's been a productive weekend. My wife and I have secured down payment financing and can now begin the honest search for a house. I'm thrilled that we'll be able to capitalize on the $8,000 tax credit.

I wanted to be eligible for the repeat buyer credit but no.

I will pretend I didn't read that statement.

The new-new version was the first time I've experienced that problem.

I've had that problem on the old one for quite some time...I haven't downloaded the update yet.

Don't like gin. Rum I can do case-by-case.
