Sucks to see the Astros win it all again barring a gem from Strasburg in Game 6 Tuesday night in Houston as the bats have gone ice cold after Game 2 Expand While I'm an Orioles fan...still rootin' for the Nats to pull it out. Don't phone it in yet! (After yesterday, this one has smelled like a Game 7 for me!) And besides...they played better in Houston, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceFrederickWx Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I heard the Nationals got stuck at the airport in Houston and had the Orioles fill in for the home games, can someone confirm this? Asking for a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many other great ones to choose from nowadays, so I'll likely pass on it, too. You or @nw baltimore wx (or @Scraff?) interested in going in on the Aslin Barrel Select program?

smokeybandit Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I was disappointed with KBS. Good beer, but not nearly as good as the price point would suggest.

As I read it this morning things are looking good Expand Things always look good this time of year. The glass is half full. The swings come from those who hang onto every post/discussion on the key indices and the advertised LR pattern. That is all objective stuff and some speculation mixed in. There are always those who will exhibit early signs of panic because they get overemotional or lack understanding. Panic room open for business yet? I hope all turns out well with your back surgery.

CAPE Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Looks like the Denver area will end up with 10" of cold powder with this next storm. Heavy snow with temps in the single digits and teens. Snow on snow too in October. Something that is rare here in mid winter. @smokeybandit Keep us posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, when I do want to chase down out of state beers, I’d much rather be sprinting down the amazing liquids that Other Half or Equilibrium are kicking out.

Buddy of mine was working in New York regularly for about six months earlier this year and would stop by to grab cans before heading home at the end of the week. Always nice to have a fresh supply of beers like that. We've also been picking up OH at DTC if we're able to make the trek. They (and EQ) occasionally drop in Fairfax County, too, but the supply is super limited and the price is generally pretty high. Buddies and I are putting together a group of guys to go in on a barrel via Aslin's Barrel Select project. Would be pretty sweet if we can make it work...
