The quoted paragraph was written in 1997. That's some high-quality prognostication.

Happy Birthday!

Naaman and Brent's shared worst nightmare!

Ring sting is a terrible thing!

I don't understand any of this stuff. Wine douchery is far simpler and less frustratingly democratic: "Sold! To the highest bidder!"

Fuck this year so hard. Sorry Brent. RIP Sam.

Oh that's such shitty luck. RIP Mike.

Happy Birthday! I played golf in your honor.

No, I think it's still going to be a while. Haven't heard of any being delivered through official channels yet, so it was interesting to see one showing up on the downlow. What could cause serious unhappiness would be ADs selling their limited allocations out the back door for 150% of MSRP instead of satisfying their wait lists. If I was Rolex I might buy up some of the early grey offers, track the serials back and crack a few skulls. Larry if you don't decide to keep the CK-2998 then give me a shout.

First new ceramic Daytona that I've seen available popped up on the grey market last night, listed for $22K versus $12K MSRP. I am going to be tempted to flip mine if that sort of premium holds up.

Decided psychological scars were sufficient.

Happy Birthday!

Today I was forced to display the judgement of Solomon in deciding between attendance at my son's first baseball game or my daughter's Girl Scout talent show. The only fair solution was to blow off both and go drink beer in London with Jeff.

Weird double post.
