Trip Hop, hell yeah that was great. Fully introduced @rockaction to DJ Shadow
Right now I am just trying to figure out WTF is going on in here.You're cordially invited
I am not a trip hop expert but to me it's the best trip hop song off the best trip hop album
Building Steam WIth A Grain Of Salt.
I think it was trip-hop / acid house but the acid house kinda got lost in the shuffle. One of my finest FBG music draft moments ever, picking that genre.Trip Hop, hell yeah that was great. Fully introduced @rockaction to DJ Shadow
And the dice were kind to it.I think it was trip-hop / acid house but the acid house kinda got lost in the shuffle. One of finest FBG music draft moments ever, picking that genre.
Did you do any of the genrepalooza drafts before?Right now I am just trying to figure out WTF is going on in here.
Both. And for some reason in my gin haze this one seems more complicated.Did you do any of the genrepalooza drafts before?
Back to cloudy and 40 degrees here. F this S.It's a beautiful day in SF. I'm going to ride my bike to the beach and listen to this on shuffle. I'll work on the Google Sheet when I get back.
Hey, I just made a gin martini.Both. And for some reason in my gin haze this one seems more complicated.

I never think we should be sticklers for draft order and I think people should be up when they are ready to be up.Marco is actually up, right?
Hey, I just made a gin martini.
Here are the categories
The dice will be rolled every round for 2 of the categories. You must pick a 21st century song from one of the 2 categories.
But this draft has a catch. You can pick a "Home" category. That is your get out of jail free card. So say you take rock. If the dice pull up country and rap but you don't like either genre, you can always just choose a rock song since it's your "home" category.
So to join
1. Choose a home category from the ones listed above.
2. Draft a song from your home category or one of the 2 rolled categories: R&B or "None of the above"
The wife hooked me up with a raw honey gin that is a fantastic sipper on the rocks, and this is some dangerous stuff. So good.Hey, I just made a gin martini.

We have a new small distillery in town that we checked out a couple weeks ago and I have a bottle of gin from it sitting on the bar.. plus my wife just went to bed, so maybe I'll pour myself one and conduct some "research".Both. And for some reason in my gin haze this one seems more complicated.

Didn't we talk about this once?This is a dumb question I'm sure but how much are Caesar's/Clamato juice a thing to any of you Americans? The Caesar is the national mixed drink of Canada and I sell Mott's products now in my job, the volume sold on a weekly basis in grocery stores is insane to me.

That's why I moved away from Wisconsin.Back to cloudy and 40 degrees here. F this S.
What kind of scotch? I know nothing about it
Not sure how you guys deal with these huge festival concerts. I think I have officially become too old for this. Anything above a smallish club and I start my old man ranting.
Damn near daily I wish we had the funds for a move. Now I am hoping the 12 year old will be as big as they say, get a basketball scholarship somewhere warm, and give us a good excuse to GTFO of here.That's why I moved away from Wisconsin.
I need views from those a greater distance from the border and also, I only half remember any conversations at Thin Man, as I was pretty sauced by that point.Didn't we talk about this once?
Wait, are you? If so, I might push to visit the SIL a few times a year now.Also I am down to nothing on weed. I thought we were legalizing this #### in Michigan?
Some in our group barely doNot sure how you guys deal with these huge festival concerts.
NY is so ####### backward on this, too.Also I am down to nothing on weed. I thought we were legalizing this #### in Michigan?
It is legal but it's not OK'd for recreational sales yet. Should be good by the end of the year but they have to figure out the details for who gets a license and stuff.Wait, are you? If so, I might push to visit the SIL a few times a year now.
Also I am down to nothing on weed. I thought we were legalizing this #### in Michigan?
It's free and clear up here now.Wait, are you? If so, I might push to visit the SIL a few times a year now.
Wait, is your kid dope at basketball?Damn near daily I wish we had the funds for a move. Now I am hoping the 12 year old will be as big as they say, get a basketball scholarship somewhere warm, and give us a good excuse to GTFO of here.
Since you work for Mott's, this seems like a good opportunity to mention Mott the Hoople has been touring this month. They played their first US dates in 45 years but didn't do a West Coast swing.This is a dumb question I'm sure but how much are Caesar's/Clamato juice a thing to any of you Americans? The Caesar is the national mixed drink of Canada and I sell Mott's products now in my job, the volume sold on a weekly basis in grocery stores is insane to me.
I mean I guess I could drive there and buy some and come back really my friend who has his card and gets me #### just needs to come back from his vacation .It's free and clear up here now.
If he's great in basketball, I want him to stay close by and play for the BadgersDamn near daily I wish we had the funds for a move. Now I am hoping the 12 year old will be as big as they say, get a basketball scholarship somewhere warm, and give us a good excuse to GTFO of here.
No way, come to Ann Arbor. Way better.If he's great in basketball, I want him to stay close by and play for the Badgers
I don't know, like, a ton about scotch. This one is Talisker Storm....it's okay, pretty moderate, not too overbearing smoky or boozy. I've had better, bought it on a whim at the store once. I can't pick out the notes of a scotch like I can a beer.What kind of scotch? I know nothing about it
No - he loves it though. He is big for his age (12 1/2, and just rounded 6' tall), and you can't teach size, but he doesn't have the aggression to go up for rebounds and use his size. Most parents and teachers call him the gentle giant.Wait, is your kid dope at basketball?
It's so weird to walk into a store and buy weed now. There are a dozen dispensaries within a half mile of my house.It's free and clear up here now.
How do you feel about drinking beer at 9 AM, being hungover at like 2 PM, and then continuing to drink all day, in like 90 degree heat, only to pass out in a tent for like 4 hours, wake up, not shower, and do it all over again the next day?Not sure how you guys deal with these huge festival concerts. I think I have officially become too old for this.
Nice, I know nothing. More of a bourbon guy if I am drinking liquor straight/rocks. The name of it obviously reminds me of your handle.I don't know, like, a ton about scotch.

Did you buy it because once you've had two or three it reads/is pronounced "Tasker Storm"?I don't know, like, a ton about scotch.
