Why are you sorry?

I'll try very hard to be there too.

That's because they are freakin' good!

Belated Happy Birthday, Raffy!

Happy Birthday, John. Have a great one with lots of great beers and great company. Cheers!

Nah, Steve would like that.

Put tubes on the cables. That will kick it up to $4K.

Apparently nobody has been able to open Steve's back door. So you'll be the first. Congrats!

Good luck and good recovery.

Nice Mikey. I really like Alban Vineyards wines and 2007 was a great year so the syrahs should be wonderful. Congrats John.

Congratulations, Jacob!

Aspics are truly retro.

Miguel, why would you want to have coffee with lechers?

Yes. Just remember to preheat the oven long enough for the pizza stone to come up to the desired temperature.

Happy Birthday, Dinny. Have a great one full of much good wine, woman and song!

I bought 2 bottles of Russian River Damnation Batch 23 recently. A couple of days I opened one of them. I hated it. It was bitter with a metallic aftertaste. There were some other flavors, but the bitterness just dominated the flavor. I eventually poured out the last 1/3 of the bottle. Did I get a bad bottle of beer from Russian River Brewing or do I just not like Tripels? Is this what this beer is supposed to taste like? I read reviews and ratings on Beer Advocate and RateBeer. I didn't taste anything like what was written. Assuming the remaining bottle is a good bottle, will it get better with age? Can you recommend a couple of other Tripels I can try to see if I just don't like this style?

You must really like it, John!

The important thing is not to take low offers personally. It's about the person making the offer, not the seller. If you get an offer that you consider to be lo-ball, either ignore it or respond according to some of the suggestions above. Don't let it cause you to raise your blood pressure even one mm HG (1 unit of pressure). It's just not worth it.

Thanks to all those living who served. Many thanks to those who have passed.

Good luck, Jacob.

Bacon sausage. Sounds like a win-win to me.

Happy Birthday, Mikey. Hope you have some extra special whisky today.

Happy Birthday, Chris. xN on what Dan said.
