Same but with wine. It just makes sense to buy a case at a time. Gives plenty of chances to restock when low without being out.

Make sure to use this as an opportunity to reflect on the fact that your wife has lived this life for not just 4 days but 14 months. Reiterate to her how much you appreciate what she does and maybe find an additional house chore or two to take over to make her life easier.

Damn dude. Wasn't trying to be. Genuinely trying to understand why some people are nearly having a breakdown waiting for the results. You did your part and voted. Nothing else you can do about it so why work yourself up so much? People in my office were even canceling meetings most of the week over the stress of the elections which is ridiculous. If you're too stressed to work then you need to take PTO.

Edit: Yall didn't need to mark the guy. Looks like he got suspended over that.

Yeah. It's super peaty. I'll sip on it every now and then. I find adding a lil water to it makes it taste better for me. Not the biggest fan of the peatyness but I'll drink it.

I enjoy the four roses I got from your list more. I prefer the taste of it. Kind of like an apple.
Nice. I can't remember if we discussed this already or not. There are a lot of other scotch types that are less peaty. Islay can be the most challenging type for some.

Glad you liked the bourbon. Once you're ready to drop $40-60 for a bottle, let me know and I'll recommend you a good one.

Weird to think that hes only lost 26 times
Not that weird. For most of his career, he's had "creative control" power written into his contract. Meaning he can do whatever with his character including winning or losing to whoever he sees fit. This has caused massive problems with story lines across every organization he's been in.

One infamous instance is WCW Bash at the Beach PPV where Jeff Jarrett was suppose to retain his title against Hogan but at the last second, Hogan decided he wanted to win the title. This led to Jarrett laying down in the middle of the ring as soon as the bell ran. Hogan pinned him and stormed out the building.

Later Vince Russo came out on the mic, apologized to fans, and told them they'd never see that son of a bitch Hogan in WCW again. It is incredible to watch.

Buy Codex Index from House Contractor. Then when you're looking at the Codex(LB button to see description of all the Gods, items, etc) check each description of the Gods. It'll say something like "Press blank for boon list "

Same and same. >_> lol
I currently have a similar setup for my Genesis, N64, and OG Xbox. My Dreamcast and Saturn will eventually get a MODE installed. All of them are hooked up to the CRT in an old entertainment center in my home office. Managed to snag one of those massive 8-9ft memory foam "bean" bags for free as well so that's used to chill on while using the retro setup.

I should look into finding digital copies of GamePro. I had a subscription from like '93-'03. Ended up tossing them all at one point. There just wasn't any room/reason at the time to keep them other than nostalgia. Not to mention all the other gaming mags I had.

Yeah I had to wait until I bought a house last year to get one. Was lucky enough to find a 32 inch barely used for free. Had component and s-video input so I've been buying new cables for all my retro systems. Playing my Genesis with component input after spending my childhood suffering with RF input has been incredible. Night and day difference in quality.

I bought the official component cables for ps1/2/3 for when I get my PS2 from my parents house. Curious to see the quality jump from composite to component with the PS2.
