For EMS, I saw on the e_select_delivery_method_currency page a price of USD 4,120 quoted (it does the conversion for you).

Finished Woken Furies -- liked. Finished Rosemary and Rue, A Local Habitation, and An Artificial Night. Seanan McGuire is easily my favorite recent discovery. She's not perfect, but I find myself just whizzing through her books, feeling very involved, caring for what happens to whom, and in particular, I really love the long-term relationships she sets up. There's one that is set up from the very beginning as a love/hate thing, but she tells us through action rather than thought or narrative. I mean, eventually even Toby (the main character) realizes that the feelings run deeper than what she initially believed, but the actions come first, the thoughts afterward. Started Steel Remains. Will probably start Late Eclipses shortly.

King Crimson -- I definitely like it. It's an imperial amber, and hence, hoppier than I would usually take to, but...I actually think it's more bitter than hoppy, but it's that clean bitter/hoppy that I like so much in for example, My Antonia, Sierra Nevada XXXth Anniversary Barleywine, and the Terrapin/Left Hand IPA collaboration thingy. But it's a little on the thin side, so I doubt I'll get it again.

Why cats rule: See, that's the fierce kiss-my-ass attack. Why dogs rule: Pretty much a tie.

The 1200 is black.

Sounds nasty.

So technically, there is no plural, since it's not a noun, but there's only one LEGO® company, and Steve's statement would be more correctly "...how many LEGO bricks...?"

I don't think hardly anyone here has heard the Phiaton anything.

Wait, what?

GYBE weren't always like that, glad to hear you got a good show.

I love Legoland. When I was on vacation in San Diego, I made the pilgrimage. Lou's Records was the other pilgrimage I made.

Not in America, fuck yeah! Unless of course, you're talking about some kind of endangered species thing, in which case, never mind.

Talking Head -- bizarre movie so far, but A+ for taking the road less trodden.

Srsly. And again on Wednesday, if the predictions pan out.

I just want to hop on the "Southern Tier Mokah is awesome" train. Choo-choo! Alas, I don't have any refrigerating right now. I think tonight's a Sleepytime night.

Pho King: good.

It's in Columbia, MD, not the place that grawk mentioned.

Raffy -- wtf is wrong with you -- that is my favorite beer. Al -- glad you liked. I know it doesn't make up for the mudslide, but here's to hoping it's the beginning of a trend of things you enjoy. Me -- finished the Fraoch. Meh. I'll give it another chance later (especially since I bought two bottles right away).

Saw The Joy Formidable last night -- fucking rawked.

Perfect Pour, dude. I'd offer to go up there with you tomorrow after your lesson, but I don't really need anything right now. But I'll go with you if you want to go.

Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald porter Sent from mah Droid

Wouldn't there be a problem with sending it to the EU without having distribution in the EU? Or can you still sell direct?

Oh, fuckme. I'm only at 48, but I was really hoping the same thing. I fully suspect one of the higher levels to be nothing but a bunch of coffee mugs.

Let's put it this way -- you won't catch me arguing with that. And yes, they are associated with Absolute Sound, HiFi+, and ...hmmm...I thought there was a home entertainment one as well.

I liked it -- I was hoping for a little more body, but I didn't mind the mild sour. Errs on the side of inoffensive, but I'm glad of that.
