    2010 Abyss

    I had a chance to get this back the end of December, but held off because of financial obligations. Anyone in the Tucson area know if there is any still floating around? I checked out a few places I seen it back in December, but they are all out. Thanks, Jamie

    Just how much is "a glass" or a drink to you?

    Depends on what i am drinking...non-mixed drinks generally on ice is enough to float the ice. I drink a lot of rum though straight, on the rocks or mixed so it varies quite a bit.

    Any Climbers?

    Yes, especially with altitude. Even with all the training, some people's bodies just won't adapt to the altitude regardless of acclimatizing. That is my main worry. People have been known to get acute mountain sickness at Everest base camp which is at around 17,500 feet.

    Snowed in Prescott, AZ

    No snow south of Tucson, though I seen a few flakes mixed in with the rain. Yesterday it was in the low 50s and it felt COLD. Strange how a few years can change you. Back home in northern Wisconsin, it wasn't unusual to have a day in the low 50s in the middle of the summer.

    Any Climbers?

    Hi everyone... Just wondering if there are any climbers out there. I plan on completing my first climb in 2012 on Lobuche Peak in Nepal. From what I understand, it's technically straightforward. Since this is my first climb I'll be doing a lot of training prior to and during the climb. At...

    Goose Island Bourbon County Vanilla, Rare, etc...

    I've heard a lot about the Goose Island beers on here and other sites. Living in the Tucson area, I'm yet to see any of these. I'm sure a lot of that has to do with Goose Island being a Chicago area brewery so little if any gets this far west. For those out there familiar with the Rare...

    How's the weather?

    Upper 70s to low 80s starting tomorrow in to mid week, then low 70s. Low 20s to high teens back in northern Wisconsin where the family is. Sure is nice not having to turn the heat on, though I do miss the white Christmas.

    Grand Marnier 150

    No, definitely not a true comparison. There are many smaller cognac houses out there that are great; Tesseron and Maison Surrenne being a couple examples. In my opinion, these smaller cognac houses can, and many times do, produce better quality cognacs. Also look in to Germain-Robin brandies...

    How to keep my port wine in a good shape?

    Also, see if you can find any information on that vintage. Although you can drink at any time, some get better, 10, 20 or more years later.
