you need to start hanging out in those many socialist bars in town man.Let's just say I wasn't the most popular man in the country club this evening.
Not all heroes wear capes.maybe, but this was an off duty cop/Iraq vet who thought I'd be okay with him spewing racist bull#### at the other end of the bar.
Dude doesn't wear long pants. I think a cape is out of the question.Also, that’s a guess. I’m not judging you if you wear a cape
It’s the best. Did you go to June lake brewery? Love that place.@Raider Nation just spent 5 days in mammoth/June. So awesome.
Good for you for speaking up. Can you paraphrase what he said?maybe, but this was an off duty cop/Iraq vet who thought I'd be okay with him spewing racist bull#### at the other end of the bar.
Yep. Didn’t drink there though.It’s the best. Did you go to June lake brewery? Love that place.
If they can't make it, smuggle that booze in to themtl;dr Bourbon. It’s what’s for dinner.
Yesterday my wife had hernia surgery. Sandwiched around that, my dad went to the ER for a kidney stone that he couldn’t pass. He ends up having (unsuccessful) surgery. They couldn’t get it out, but placed a stent around it and it will take 2 more surgeries to complete that process. Oh, and he’s supposed to have back surgery to fix some issue that has been causing him debilitating pain when he tries to walk for about 6 months (this guy has had 2 major one heart surgeries to boot).
Get my wife home and settled, then have to go out again and help my 16 year old get the other car started (think it is just a dirty battery terminal - maybe). While I am there, my sister texts that she is on the way to the ER with my nephew, who busted his chin at his HS football game.
Think we just paid for a new break room at that place.
#### yesterday. Today I get to go to a bottling party for a new release bourbon that I signed myself, my dad, and my father-in-law up for as a Father’s Day gift 4 years ago when the distillery launched. Dad swears he is going, and my FIL is on oxygen 24/7 for COPD. Should probably reserve a suite in the ER now.
Yep. Didn’t drink there though.
Not a big beer guy anymore. Did have their IPA at the Tiger Bar though.
Kid leaves for college tomorrow. Things are rather stressful at Casa De Epic so I’ve sought shelter at the bar
Slapithi?
He didn't drop any n-bombs or anything, but was at the other end of the bar loudly saying how his behavior (Kaep) was disgusting and anyone supporting him was despicable and how he should be honored that he just had a place to play, yada yada. Typical racist dog whistling.Good for you for speaking up. Can you paraphrase what he said?
Yeah, I'm not a country club kinda guy. It was a mistake to join, I still hate golf and not having any black people around it kind of creeepy. But they are introducing Pickle ball next week and maybe I'm not too old for that...according to the bar cop, I'm an old man that needs to sit down and shut up.you need to start hanging out in those many socialist bars in town man.
You'd probably be one of the last people I'd expect to be a country club member, based on your message board identity at least. I'm sure you had reasons though, being a reasonable guy.Yeah, I'm not a country club kinda guy. It was a mistake to join, I still hate golf and not having any black people around it kind of creeepy.

The bolded is absolutely true.You'd probably be one of the last people I'd expect to be a country club member, based on your message board identity at least. I'm sure you had reasons though, being a reasonable guy.
My golf experience is limited to Putt-putt and driving ranges, though I've played just about every other sport regularly. Golf always struck me as boring and an old man's activity (I know that's not true though).
It was stupid. Thought my back could handle golfing and I needed some movement in my life. Also thought the wife and I would use the gym. Plus its the only food/booze within a mile of my house. Stupid is as stupid does. At least I didn't pay any initiation feesYou'd probably be one of the last people I'd expect to be a country club member, based on your message board identity at least.

Have had a couple of those perfectly hit moments recently. Holed out with a 60 degree wedge from about 70 yards for eagle the other weekend. Also put a 8 iron out of a fairway trap about 2 feet from 145ish when I was up in Door Co, Wi last month.There isn't much that's more satisfying than a perfectly-struck golf ball. There isn't much that's harder to do than perfectly strike a golf ball.
The Senior Tour was invented, more or less, on that course. For whatever that's worth.
I thank god I will never write such an arrangement of words.Holed out with a 60 degree wedge from about 70 yards for eagle the other weekend. Also put a 8 iron out of a fairway trap about 2 feet from 145ish when I was up in Door Co, Wi last month.

Was never a golfer growing up, but married into a golfing family so picked it up. After years of frustration, I’ve gotten to the point that I do love game. Mostly due to the time I’ve spent playing it with my FiL and BIL. I still suck at it enough to make those moments special and the fact that they saw both of them happen only helped that.I thank god I will never write such an arrangement of words.
Yeah I had one of those perfect hits once 40 years ago playing with a rich girlfriend at her country club. Over 350 yards onto the green. I was high as #### on coke, tho.Was never a golfer growing up, but married into a golfing family so picked it up. After years of frustration, I’ve gotten to the point that I do love game.

So my sister sent a follow-up text that when they left the ER after getting my nephews chin stitched up, her van wouldn’t start and it is a bad battery and alternator.If they can't make it, smuggle that booze in to them
futbol fan or not, Among the Thugs was pretty great. and i have long thought that the guy on the cover was @AAABatteriesHave you read Dead Solid Perfect?
Probably the best sports book I ever read, except for North Dallas FOrty
You probably strained it virtue signaling.Thought my back could handle golfing and I needed some movement in my life.
If I had a dollar for every time I heard that one ......according to the bar cop, I'm an old man that needs to sit down and shut up.

Well that sucks.Cambria Estate Wines is also a petty winery that needed to Cease and Desist my brewery, then it was known as the Cambria Beer Company, since they own the trademark Cambria. Their argument was it would cause customer confusion. Screw them and Kendall Jackson....!
ND40 is awesome.Have you read Dead Solid Perfect?

No i did not, it is the 927 Beer Company. 927 was the only phone number prefix in town when my wife was growning up. Everyone just said the last 4 digits when asked their phone number. We did call our saison release at that time Cease and D'SaisonDid you end up posting what you changed it to? :lazy:
Please tell me it's now Cease & Desist Brewing Company.
I must confess that I watched both Santa Jaws and Trailer Park Shark this week....Happy Sharknado Day, everybody!
That must have been a fine work of artI must confess that I watched both Santa Jaws and Trailer Park Shark this week....
How do the other businesses there with “Cambria” in their name get away with it?No i did not, it is the 927 Beer Company. 927 was the only phone number prefix in town when my wife was growning up.
