Ohhhh, Manhattans! I haven't had one in some time, myself, but like them a lot...Makers Mark for the bourbon for me (and sweet vermouth)! Also like a "perfect" Manhattan, which has both dry and sweet vermouth. There was a place in Atlanta when I lived there (the Highland Tap, for anyone familiar) that made awesome martinis and Manhattans. Friend of mine and I would go there quite often.

Yeah, the Dortmunder is one of their "lighter" beers, a golden ale. Personally I like that at this time of year, generally. But I also like the heavier fall/winter ones too, especially stouts. They have the "Edmund Fitzgerald" porter which is nice, and I've seen their "Blackout Stout" (commemorating the blackout in the northeast some years back) but never tried it yet. I also like their Holiday Ale, has some nice spice to it and is pretty heavy.

@nw baltimore wx, @Baltimorewx, and @C.A.P.E....not sure if this would live up to your beer standards, but I do enjoy Great Lakes beer from my hometown (Cleveland, OH)!! They make some good stuff, and I've been able to find it in a few places in DC! Or, I'll bring some back when I visit there! Here's some Dortmunder Gold...one of their flagship brews, and quite fine if I may say!!

@Mrs.J, I am so sorry to hear about this!! I know that at times, it seems bad things happen all at once like that. Take care of yourself, and I hope your family will be OK!! And thanks for the perspective, you're right, nature sometimes just has beauty when you need it. What a lovely photo!! If I may, here's a red rose for you...

I remember years ago seeing an episode of that show "Jackass", where this guy literally made and ate what he called a "vomlette". I'll leave it to one's imagination how it was created, but it was most definitely gag worthy!!
-
Did @H2O hack your account???
-
OK...now you all are just trolling poor @Mrs.J!!
-
"Mr. Frodo...throw it in! What are you waiting for??"
-
Well...this should also be a perfect day to crack open a cold one!! (I have some Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold awaiting me for later this afternoon!)
-
Not sure what to make of that...but it's better than Vienna sausages surrounded by Spaghetti-os!! By a fair amount.
-
Looks like a very long game of "Go", to me!!
-
Gorgeous out today! Took a nice walk in the Audubon nature center near where I'm at. Much nicer than the cold wind yesterday. Family up in Cleveland got snow on Friday! May freakin' eighth! Unreal. Enough to coat the grass a decent amount from what they said.

C'mon, must be holding a beer off camera! Bet @nw baltimore wx has a hidden selfie cam right there on the bottle...click and drink!

Just remember to wear a mask when you go for your cemetery-side pickup!!
-
C'mon! Don't even try to defend that abomination you posted! That's like equating jay-walking with running someone over!!
-
Don't forget the sunscreen. And where's the tropical drink?? (ETA: Do you make sure to stay 6 feet under??)
-
Amen! A filthy martini, plenty of olive juice!!
-
Make it a dirty martini...add some olive juice as well!! Yummmm! Oh, and don't forget, one should always eat the olives first. Don't want to drink on an empty stomach!

Maybe @WxWatcher007 should open up the Panic Room early this year. Would it be considered an "essential business"?? It sure is during the winter, I'm sure there's a loophole his well-paid bony lawyers will find to allow summertime reaping!
-
Time for another then! What a meeting!
-
Maybe we can open it up if comments remain 6 minutes apart. Temporal distancing, to better clean up useless posts. And to enter that thread, all users must come in with waders. Because it could get very deep in there, ya know!!
-
As I sip (chug?) my wine this evening, I'm reminded of that wise saying, "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy!" Truer words were never spoken!
-
Oh, and please please please do not serve that in the Panic Room next winter!
-
Yeah that was bad I know! After copying that image @H2O posted the other week to my phone, I then bleached it with @Mrs.J's recipes to make things safe again!

Since the COVID thread is locked (ironically on lockdown?), I'll re-visit some controversy here. Never forget, never repeat!
