    Wines for the Non-Oenophile?

    To the OP's original question, I have always found most varietals from Merryvale to be at a decent crossroads of price and quality. Check them out.

    Premium Rum

    I've recently had Sailor Jerry rum at a Mexican restaurant / cigar bar in Dallas (can't recall the name). I thought it was quite good - any thoughts on this brand?

    Dipping in the Midwest?

    I grew up in the midwest and I never knew anyone who dipped as far as I can recall... but the midwest is a large and diverse area, I think this is more something you'd find in places like Indiana or Ohio, rather than Chicago/Twin Cities I'm sorry, but you can't compare two states to two cities...

    Any way to lose muscle?

    iwant to reduce my chest size so that it won't pucker my lapels on my coats anymore. going up to a 44 is just too sloppy looking for me so i rather stay at my current 42 (fits my shoulders) and also 42 coats work better with slim jeans where as 44 makes me look lopsided and top heavy with my...

    Washington, DC Gym Advice

    For those who know, how would you compare WSC with Gold's? I will get a discount on both thru my employer, and an especially nice one on WSC. I use almost all free weights, but will be doing light cardio (rowing) as well. I've been going to a WSC for about a year and its OK. Tons of cardio...

    I've been trying to lose weight for months with little success

    It can't be said enough - write down EVERYTHING you eat. Trying to eat "healthy" is an invitation to fool yourself. Check out the calorie counts at some restaurants for their salads - its disgusting.

    Most annoying people at the gym...

    More annoying people: guys who stand right in front of the free weight racks doing their curls or whatnot. The other day I gave a guy a few seconds to move back so I could access the weights I needed. When he didn't, I moved in, purposefully fucked up his form, and swore under my breath loudly...

    Old Fashioned Recipe-How do you make yours?

    Long-time bourbon drinker, but just made my first old-fashioned yesterday. Not 100% traditional, but it was good. - tsp of brown sugar - just enough seltzer water to dissolve the sugar - couple dashes Peychaud bitters - muddle with a tangerine peel - ice (large cubes to prevent excessive...

    What to do in Tuscany

    its my son - by far my fav picture. Well, for the last 4 years or so I have been so busy at work, I've really only perused postings, not adding or asking much. Now, well I've got a bit more down time until credit loosens up again.

    What to do in Tuscany

    If you have a car, or access to a car, take a day or two and go to Montalcino. One of the best Italian wines, in my opinion, is the Brunello di Montalcino. The whole area is about wine and food. Several very good restaurants in the city center. Several vineyards also have cottages for a very...

    suggestions, good American brand clothing

    Made in the USA or American labels? Hugo Boss has a large facility in Cleveland where many of their suits sold in the US are made.

    I want to get Strong or Lifting 101: A Beginner's Program

    Um, negative. I'm not an exercise scientist or nutritionist, just a practitioner, so I don't know all the science behind why what I do works, just that it does. I was 5'11" and 195 my senior year of HS as a lacrosse player and when I graduated college I was a very lean 165 lightweight rower and...
