The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

....and now I saw you asked me about TRVE right after I posted earlier today. Totally missed it. I suck. Next time man!

 

Yeah I am stoked to try the Fram Noir and may have to make a play for the cut:blackberry just because. Momi was a pretty big want too still in disbelief I was able to score both in one haul.

Dennis, send me a BM to confirm your address in the directory is correct, and/or if you have any requests or special instructions.

Thanks to everyone who played along. Even though, we only caught 5 fish, that was well over 200lbs of delicious flaky, white flesh. Here are some pictures:





For those that haven't met me, I'm in the blue shirt and the fish I'm holding weighed about 45 lbs...

 

#VSS Wife is out at some pole dancing class, hoping that works out well for me later tonight. So the BIL and I do some tomahawk steaks with 30 year balsamic, paired with White Oak Jai Alai- as the hops fade, the oak is more potent, perfect for grilled meats.





Notice the lack of vegetables.

 

VBS, finally getting the chance to tick a long time want.

 

This beer tastes like they took an NG fruit beer and tripled the abv lol

 

#VBS - Catching the end of UFC 187 with this beauty.

 

#VDS (virtual deck share) another long day working on it



Yesterday, I got some unexpected, but quite welcome news from a local bottle shop. #VHS (virtual humblebrag share)



Now, after a long day with the in-laws, tucking into my first Kunhenn. DRIPA is delicious!

#VGS #ProperGlassware

 

Jesus Christ it's beautiful.

 

Jealous af, ha ha. S far the one store I know getting Framboos is doing a drawing for it. Hopefully I'll luck out like I did with Hommage and ble able to run out and grab it during lunch.

 

First PPV ive ordered in a loong time. At 60$ they are just too much especially with the 2 big fights having the potential to be quick KO's. One ended that way, but overall the card was great! Ill def go back to watching it for free at Buff wild wings next time tho lol

 

Yeah I'm the same way. Me and a few buddies used to order almost every one of them, now we just get the big ones or head across the river to the casino and watch it there. Some good fights tonight though, Arlovski and Browne whipped the shit out of each other.

 

That's fucking beautiful man.

 

Sadly, all i could take to go was my empty bottle...

 

That's a lot of fish! My good beer week continues but I will be ninjaing this forward. I will bm you my choice. Thanks!

 

I'm just catching up this thread from yesterday, and I thought this was a posting for one of our traveling boxes -- we could just ship you around the country -- "the ajayhood"

 

I hate random requests too; I rarely accept them unless a) they are somewhat local to me or seem to have found me because of some particular beers we like, b) they have a relatively small friend list and seem to specifically want to follow me for some reason, or c) they are connected to most of you. But in general my "feed" (or whatever it's called) is too active to keep up with anyway (which is why I often catch up in the morning and toast people).

Of course, there was at least one random request I accepted a while back (we had some common friends), and then when we published the directory I found out it was one of you, that we had occasionally commented on or toasted each other, and that he knew who I was but I didn't know who he was.

 

I should take totally random guesses that are meant to be funny and not accurate more often. I can't believe I made it to the tiebreaker.

 

Hopefully she doesn't introduce you to her friend Stanley Kozlowski anytime soon...

 

Looking at their friends they've actually got some friends from the SWTFYW group, people from a Facebook group I'm in AND some local friends of mine. It's odd.
