Trying to get back to the Savoy?

^^^ What he said!

Nice haul Al. I like the idea of the 200 ml bottles for trying out new stuff. Also thanks for the reminder that I need to purchase a backup bottle of Cocchi.

Decided to give Marc's Not Theory a try with a substitution and reduction of Campari to 1/2 oz as per Shelly's suggestion and a concomitant bump of tequila to 1 oz. Excellent cocktail Marc. I tip my hat to you sir.

This one looked better Have a great birthday doctor.

Word(s).

Thanks for the props on the bar guys and gals. It still needs a little tweaking but overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Now to find a little time to actually use it.

Bah! We have visitors arriving that weekend for the Thanksgiving holiday. I wonder if I could sneak away?

Mine arrived yesterday. Another big thanks to Lil'Knight and Deepak.

I'm not sure I would put much stock in the lines this early on. On another note, Knowshon Moreno sucked.

Thanks Al, it seemed an appropriate opening drink. The recipe I found for the Monte Carlo also called for rye but it was dam tasty with Bourbon. I need to try the Not Theory, sounds pretty good. Decided to up the ante on the Sazerac

I could never pick Brady on principal.

I like the Partida reposado. I will try the Casa Noble when I can find it. The premiere drink has to be Sazerac

Mine too. Unfortunately the soccer tournament was in Bloomington, IL. Not nearly so nice.

Happy birthday!

My new bar. The money shot

Drove to Bloomington for the first soccer tournament of the season. Now waiting for the first game to start.

Hope your smoking that Took my queue from a creepy robot and made a Metropolitan 2 oz Maison Surrenne Cognac 1 oz Carpano Antica 1/2 tsp Simple Syrup 2 dashes Bittercube Bolivar Bitters Stir with ice and stir 31.4159 times. Strain into cocktail glass and enjoy.

If you will be taking a lot of insect shots, and are impatient, then the 105 may be worth the money. If most of your macros will be of non-motile things, then I do not see the big advantage of increased working distance at a given magnification. Anyone who makes proclamations that one is always better is simply full of shit. If you are buying the lens from somewhere that has a thirty day return, use it yourself and decide if it works for you.

A cheap RCA DVD player for the car to replace the POS Next Base player that never worked correctly from day one and now just doesn't work.

That's what they want you to think.
