    The Great Beer Thread

    On a warm, humid evening, nothing beats an ice-cold pint of Rickards Red. I find you have to like 'red' beers first; but if you do, Rickards can't be beat. Cheers Craig

    Dog Fighting? Good God Almighty.

    I'm with Rooster on this one. If we bow to ANY interest groups; even ones I wholeheartedly agree with the intentions of (such as in this case) we are leaving a very LARGE door open. Give him his day in court; keep the interests groups AWAY from the judicial system. And honestly, are any...

    AHOY THERE!! Who likes the vintage nautical sailing cap style?

    http://www.berkeleyhat.com/captainshat.html Nice looking one at a very good price. I assume its not one of the cheap-o Ball-cap style hats with the plastic adjusters but it may be. And another, from Miller Hats (similar to the King Kong hat) http://www.millerhats.com/greek3.htm Cheers Craig

    "What's That Ungodly Stink?" - French Cheese Surprises

    A stiff stilton or a bitey blue (nice alliteration, eh?)--That to me is a standard bit of food to always have on hand. My girlfriend and I buy Stilton in multi-pound blocks. Cheers Craig

    Apartment necessities

    Hi there, Coming from a college kid, so keep in mind, most of my advice is thrifty at best and down right dirty and cheap at worst. The smoke: Febreeze the crap out of it every day. Grab a few glade plug ins if you must, but you want an odor neutralizer like Febreeze or even Oust as that...

    Your mission, should you choose to accept it...

    ...is to dissect the Casino Royale Tuxedo. It's classically stylish, so I think it fits here. What I want from you keen eyed folks is to watch the movie, do a web search, whatever, and weigh in your opinions here. Here's what we know: It is a Brioni number, and cost over €6000. Pants...

    Favorite Vegas Hotel, Casino, Club, or just hole in the wall...

    If I'm in Vegas and you need to find me, look no further then the Poker Room in the Venetian. The Venetian is all new (one of the newest on the Strip, methinks) and as such it's amazingly clean. The decor is complex and, fittingly, Venetian, but not Tacky the way Ceasars Palace or Excalibur tend...

    FORE!!!!!

    That is a NICE looking course, Samsa! My usual haunt is the Red Lake Golf and Country Club; considering it's carved out of bush and built on mine waste it's an excellent club (the best of the 6 different courses i've played, and this includes games in Ireland's Charlesland and Niagra Falls...

    Casual Summer Shoes

    Jack, I have for over a year now owned a pair of Clarks that are inspired by the boat shoes (in fact, a boat shoe is what I was looking for) http://www.softmoc.com/ca/systemshow-item_I78611 They are, bar none, the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. In fact, I have worn them everyday since...

    FORE!!!!!

    Any golfers on the lounge? I personally LOVE the game. I wake up at 5 every morning so I can squeeze in 9 holes before work, and I rarely go to bed without visiting the club for another 9 or some buckets on the driving range. Post your favorite course (with photos!), your best score or...

    My Search for a Mate is Confined to my Sock Drawer

    Goldleaf, My most sincere apologies: I didn't mean to seem to be insulting anyones intelligence. I think I was misunderstood. You stayed in your relationship out of fear--You didn't necessarily want to be there. You had to. I was referring to the concept of a girl saying to herself...

    My Search for a Mate is Confined to my Sock Drawer

    Steve, EXCELLENT post. It always really bothers me to hear people say 'nice guys finish last' or 'girls only like jerks'. That is simply NOT TRUE. Girls are intelligent. What intelligent creature would want to spend their life with a jerk? None. If the odd one does they are not...

    Overdressed for a funeral

    Absolutley, I agree--funerals are held so that the family and friends are able to get closer. So, they are FOR the family, but they should still be ABOUT the deceased. It's a grey (or gray?) distinction; and again, it depends on personal preference. Another morbid tale of 'about the deceased'...

    Overdressed for a funeral

    Bebop, I'm sorry for your loss. You make an excellent point. For insurance purposes, before obtaining a policy, I had to fill out a legal will. I figured I'd make it as complete as possible--Last Will and Testament, I feel, shouldn't be all about who gets what. It should be your wishes; as...

    Apple iPhone

    I just dropped some coin on a Palm Treo smartphone (similar to MK's PDA he was talking about, I should think). I love it; granted it may not be as slick as the iPhone but it does have the functionality; it's 50 bucks a month (that includes minutes AND data). Further, I gotta say I love...

    Cooking Lesson Learned the Hard Way

    I always find people lighting a barbeque to be quite entertaining. Nearly every time, they try to use that little plastic plunger-sparker that lights the BBQ. So they turn on the propane, that familiar hiss starts... ...click...click..click.CLICK..CLICKCLICKCLICKCLICKCLICK The more...

    Who do you RESPECT most?

    A Lot o' Mottos: What are your words to live by?

    Secret to a long life is to keep breathing as long as possible. Or the fella who climbed Everest with no oxygen, when asked why he went up there to die, replied "I didn't, I went up there to live" Also, the signature of Sergei is a great one, I paraphrase: One should not arrive, on the...
