That's insane. A plastic 40?!

Of course I would have begged off on account of poverty, errands, or painful mangina, but you couldn't have at least called me out?  Feelings hurted.

Next time around i'll give you a heads up so you can get that errands list done.  My buddys college roommate lives on Decker, sweet remodel with a heck of a rooftop deck.

I've got people on S. Decker, couple blocks below the park.  Old ladies, sisters, born in the house they still call home today.

Seems to be the norm around there.  Guy grew up in the Highlands, moved a few blocks over to Canton.

Is that a place or the sound you make when you realize what a horrible decision you've made?

[ice grillin you]

whats the bad decision....going to delaware or trying a scrapple beer

[General_Failure]

Going to Delaware. Going to Delaware for beer. Trying a scrapple beer.

Run, don't walk to your nearest liquor store that may still have some Willett 2 year old rye. Or better yet, drive. It will probably go fast.

I've collected 25+ bottles of bourbon and rye this year and this gets the nod as the best buy. At $39 a bottle it edges out the cheaper Weller Special Reserve which is > $15 less. With a 111.4 proof it may need a little water for those not used to higher proof bottlings but I think it is silky smooth as is. Remarkable for being aged just 2 years. Honorable mention goes out to Four Roses small batch and single barrel as well as the Col. E H Taylor small batch (though it isn't a style everyone will like as much, it is a favorite here).

Rehobeth is a beach town in Delaware that is really family friendly but is best known for 3 things...1. The Dogfish Head brewpub, 2. Being a very gay friendly town, and 3. Dave Grohl vacation's there every year.

Take a 2 minute bike ride south and you're in Dewey, which is basically just a bunch of drunk people at all times in the summer. Which is why I love it. Also has really nice, usually not so crowded beaches.
