The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

VBS - From my 12 Days of Christmas. Cantillon is always good to share especially on a bad day like this one.

I found this quote from Jack Kerouac that I wanted to share as well: "Drinking is not about getting drunk, it is about enjoying life."

 

Woah!

 

Definitely agree nowadays, though occasions do come up where the former is the goal (the convention I'm going to in just under a month is basically a 4 day long party where we drink 3 of the days... I'll probably be back to my liquor days except for the small share I'm hosting in our suite)

edit I don't know how my body will react to going hard with liquor after basically making the switch to beer nearly exclusively for the last year

 

2 kids Zachary (10) and Kayley (6)
3 cats named Larry, Moe and Curly

Awesome bonus offer!

 

It is a dream of mine to meet @forgetfu. The fact that a bottle share he attended was written up in a magazine makes him something of a BA celebrity to me.... that and I'm sure the best lambic I could get my hands on wouldn't hold a candle to some junk in the back seat of his car that he might open were I so lucky.

As far as Locals BS 1.0 it sounds like we're going for sometime a little further into the year, if it's getting warm out that opens up more options for locations, or if we're at someone's home it also opens up grilling as an extra bonus. For purely selfish reasons this also makes it more likely I can make it, if I tried to add another bottleshare in January or even February I'd lose my nuts.

So awesome.

Great quote, great beer.

And my 12 Days beer for the day first (batch 1!) then the next beer I opened (from MI but not from my sender)

 

6. Muffy, Fluffy, and Butch.

 

Has anyone been close on a name yet?

I'm gonna say cats names are Tiger, Oscar, and Felix

 

Another VBS entry, courtesy of our own @Mikexw:

 

Gonna have to pick another total. @Lehighace06 already has that total with those 2 teams.

 

Let's try

Oregon wins
Alabama wins
Alabama 31 and Oregon 24 (total points 55)

 

Taj, Who Dey, and Bearcat

 

Guinness, Stella, Bud

 

Woody, Urban, and Sweatervest

 

Hint #1 - shipping to a state whose name ends in a vowel
Hint #2 - my target participated in the very first round of The Locals

 

According to FedEx my Festivus sixer will arrive on Friday. I find that kinda odd since it is already in my targets state. It is a pretty big state though.

 

Dang it, not me, I didn't participate until this one

Dang it, not me. My state ain't so big

--sings-- where, o where, is my sixer beer box?

 

Thanks for the chance:

Oregon wins.
Alabama wins.
Alabama 42 - Oregon 31 (73 total )

 

I'll go with Alabama over tOSU and Oregon over FSU, followed by Alabama 35, Oregon 30 (65 total)

Thanks for the chance!

EDIT -- I CHANGED MY SCORE PREDICTION -- I didn't want to Price as Right @Louis121 and this way (at least for now) I think I'm at least a TD away from anybody else's prediction

 

I'll take Alabama 44 Oregon 34

 

So just a quick update guys and gals, our own @rspauldi is currently dealing with some involuntary account access issues, which may or may not be temporary. He has told me that he has every intention of completing his current obligations, including the Winter Sixer, and the Ugly Sweater LIF he put out.

Long story short, you won't be hearing from him but he'll still come through on what he owes. If you need to speak with him, let @Clarkson or I know and we'll pass the message along.
