because you're so god damn good at it. and/or they know you'll do it because you're too soft. tell them to fuck off and figure it.

you should rub some female breasts on the sore spot. usually clears things right up in a few minutes.

just set up a nitro tap in the bar. so of course we had to tap a keg of guinness. i had a good lunch today.

it's these things the kids use to practice giving blowjobs to bananas.

wait ... is this one of those classes where you learn how to put on a condom? i guess the urgency justifies the cost.

You're getting ripped off.

calm down gramps. you're only a slippery floor away from the nursing home as it is.

started playing it a couple days ago. i almost bought it on ps4, then i realized i already bought the game back in 1997, and i refuse to pay for software updates.

better be the good stuff

what a conundrum!

well technically it can't be both.

...because you don't drink it, or because someone else pays?

we're not selling any of that bottle yet because i'm not pushing it until we have pricing set, but people have been inquiring about it.

the bottle cost was $690 for a 750ml, and i should be able to get around sixteen 1-dram pours out of that. so our cost per serving = $43.13, divided by a pour cost of 45% = $96 retail. this means that, for every dollar we earn on that bottle, $0.45 of liquor is consumed. that's an embarrassing, pitiful margin for any liquor, but i can't justify a pour cost of 20% in my dive because that would put the pour at $215 retail.

i'm working on expanding our scotch selection at the bar, and i'm struggling with pricing. our regular liquor pricing formula doesn't work so well in this instance. i'm shooting for a pour cost of around 35-45% which is ridiculously low (20% is probably average), but you have to remember we're in the sticks and margins tend to be shit on everything out here. so anyways, this is my current list: GLENMORANGIE 10 - $6 GLENLIVET 12 - $7 GLENFIDDICH 14 - $8 AUCHENTOSHAN 12 - $8 HIGHLAND PARK 12 - $10 GLENKINCHIE 12 - $10 GLEN SCOTIA 15 - $10 MACALLAN 12 - $11 LAPHROAIG 10 CASK - $12 GLENDRONACH 15 - $13 OBAN 14 - $14 LAGAVULIN 16 - $15 MACALLAN 18 - $38 BRUICHLADDICH 1984/32 - $96 many of these are about 25% lower than average retail from what i'm seeing online, but again, in the sticks. also, there's not shit for whiskey bars anywhere around here, so it's tough to just walk in somewhere and compare prices. what would you expect to pay for some of these in your area? also, i know i have some standards missing from this list, and a couple only so-so bottles for such a small list. some of this shit's tough to source if you don't live on a coast or near a big city. and every region is represented, which was the biggest pain in the ass out of all of it. distribution laws are bullshit. thanks for your time.

a friend discovered some old brewing ingredients in the back of their closet from like 15 years ago. so we did what any pile of dumb folks would do: we concocted a recipe based on the ingredients he discovered, and we brewed a beer with them last night. i'm concerned it might kill us if we try to drink it, but we'll worry about that later if it actually ferments out. the plan is to have an amber/red ale crammed full of noble hops, clocking in at around 5%. now we wait...

i think i have one more name/rank card to play. because i donated twice. flex, mf.

i'd take it back to the dealer if i was concerned it could be something more involved than a belt or pulley, but they're an hour drive and they didn't offer shit for a warranty (30 days 50/50). and i declined their "extended warranty" bullshit. it was actually a pretty nice weekend so we put the top down and enjoyed it. this is a thing i can easily get used to lol.

we're talking about maybe doing a small lift and upgrading the wheels/tires, but that probably won't happen right away. i want to get to know her a little bit first. we got this primarily as a work vehicle for me, which includes hauling product around and occasionally pulling a draft beer trailer. i doubt we'll get into trail riding or bombing around the countryside ... not too much anyways, at first. but we'll see. first things first though. i've gotta address that belt chirp this weekend, or else i'm taking it back to the dealer to fix it for me. it only happens for the first couple minutes when it's cold, but it's fucking embarrassing starting up a new buy and having it make noise on day one. i ordered up a full led upgrade kit (i loathe the standard lighting), minus tail lights because i'm not settled on the style i like just yet. next, a few trim pieces and cosmetic tweaks, and maybe a new radio as well. then i'll dive underneath this summer to start looking for trouble lol.

Reminds me of a few months ago when we had a bat in our house. The kids were going nuts being scared of the flying rodent and I couldn't find anything to catch it with, so being the resourceful mofo that I am, I decided to use a small blanket as a makeshift whip to snap it out of the air mid-flight. And wouldn't you know, I nailed that fucker. Problem was, I hit it on the snapback part of the whipping motion, because the bat got knocked back at me and hit me square in the face. It was stunned and I took it outside where it eventually flew off, but I think I was more traumatized than the damn bat.

Thanks for the pointers! I've spent a small amount of time researching this engine so far. It's an early enough manufacture date that it could have been one of them that had the casting sand problem, but I assume that would have become apparent by now. There's a little chirp in the belt for the first few minutes after startup that wasn't there when I test drove it, but I should be able to track that down without too much effort. Engine looks real clean, no leaks, everything is dry. It did just come from a dealer so who knows if it will stay that way for very long. I'll probably take it down to the county highway dept shop and we'll go thru it pretty thoroughly this weekend (my BiL is the dept head down there, and a diesel mechanic before that). We can do most of the mechanical work on it ourselves, so I'm not scared of a little wrenching as the need arises.

so i'm just gonna say it. i can't believe it took me this long to figure out that i shoulda been in a jeep this whole time. never drove one before this week, and i'm pretty sure i'll drive one from now on. ...but i'm sure the honeymoon will end soon enough. it has to, right?

have you seen this shit? https://steveharveysheadonthings.tumblr.com/
