    i too am curious about reddit. Hate to say it but i have never gotten into Reddit but might have to check it out for the bourbon. Bourbon made me start a new facebook. I was curious if there are any good bourbon forums? everything else i have been into has always had a couple good forums but bourbon mostly seems to be stuck on facebook with groups getting shut down every couple weeks.

    Correct, will have to go to another state to get it from costco. I believe there is one not too far into KY. or find someone to ship it to you.

    Interesting, i would of guessed the 1660 super would be worth the added money over the RX580.

    Thanks for the link and help so far everyone. I have been looking at the one you linked and the one below on amazon as kind of a base line. My hardest time now is trying to decipher how much better one is from another. https://www.amazon.com/SkyTech-Blaze-Gaming-Computer-Desktop/dp/B07RG8KM2C/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=gaming+pc&qid=1605704969&refinements=p_36%3A-75100&rnid=2421879011&sr=8-5

    Gaming PC

    Any PC guys still in here? My current PC is damn old and I have come to the realization that it would be best to replace it. Only would get used a couple times a week at bests for some gaming and web searching and emails. Would ideally like to stay in the 5-700 range. So I wanted to see what others would recommend. Am i better off rounding up parts and building or with black Friday and the holidays coming up would i find better deals already built? Also not against a used PC if it came from a trusted source. Thanks in advance

    They have a bunch for sure, their pricing is beyond awful though.

    I did the blind tasting from prohibition last Friday, was very fun and informative with some great pours. Would definitely do it again.
  10. yep i agree. Im tired of the mud that the dog brings in and how fucked my yard is again. Either get cold and freeze/ snow or warm up.

    Nice, i had to fight the temptation on that one. I just got a 15.5 year pick. I'm not loving it yet, hoping it was just an off night for me. I need to find more RR picks. Agree, i have had a couple and they were good but not worth the secondary price. However it seems secondary is correcting on them now as more are hitting the market. Bob would be great on a podcast. I'll have to check out your podcast also.

    I look at it like food, could i sit there and eat PBJ all the time, sure, but there are times when i want a nice steak. Same with bourbon. Not sure ill get to a point when my daily drinker is $300+ bottles but who knows. I feel I'm in a good position with the under $100 range and now looking to expand. I'll have to keep an eye out for those that you listed. A willett 6ish year doesn't make your $100-350 list?

    Is Oki 12 year really worth spending 350?

    I hear its awful, if anyone wins just sell it to me. Thanks.
  16. Looking for some info on LVP. Who has put it in? like it? where did you get it?

    Thanks for some great info, it has been kind of hard to find info like that. That will help me at least know what i am looking for when i travel to TN next month so hopefully i don't get ripped off. Sounds like ill have to keep an eye out for the current single barrel products to add to my rye and pot still stock. how is Rowans Creek? I passed that up in KY but feel i should of picked some up now.

    Is willett rare or more isolated to here as it's my understanding ohio doesn't get any. I found pot still and rye while in KY waiting to try.

    Going there next month, I'll see if I can find some then. Just picked up some willett. Will have to try it soon.

    Yea the bourbon craze is ridiculous. I'm going back to more every day bourbons that are easy to get. However, I have had good luck finding everything i have gone after so far but Blantons. I'll keep searching and one day I'm sure I'll stumble upon one at a reasonable price.

    Was just in KY this past weekend and figured i would bump this back up as i had a couple questions. While there I was able to pick up a bottle on my wanted list including Willett Pot still and Rye. Didn't have any luck on the family estate 7 year. The liquor stores there were crazy. I was able to find some HTF bourbon if i wanted to pay 10x what it should cost. Mostly Weller black, white, blue labels for $250+ pending which one. Has anyone tried to negotiate with them on the prices they have? I'm not on FB but had my wife join the BSM. aside from them is there any good 2nd sites/ forums that are worth joining?
  22. Wife wants to go and of course didn't get tickets. anyone looking to unload 2?
  23. Anyone have any contractor recommendations for fascia/ soffit replacement?
  24. Just got back from Isle of Palms this weekend actually. While there we went to Charleston a couple times as it is only ~30 minutes away. IoP I would say is more family orientated and would look to stay closer to Charleston or maybe Mt. Pleasant if you go this direction. My wife and I said we would absolutely want to go back to the Charleston without the kid. Food there was amazing, couple bars we went in were very fun. My brother and I did do a 4 hour fishing charter and had a blast ($450 for 4 hours+Tip). I was told that Charleston is turning into the new Nashville for bachelorette parties so i would guess the weekend night life would be good. From what I noticed it seemed the prices were more on the expensive side when we would go out compared to the last time I was at MB.
  25. My wife and I go here too but we go to Mike.
