Prison City Brewing in Auburn is good stuff, and Skaneateles has Finger Lakes On Tap and a whole lot of assholes in polo shirts. Otherwise, making the trip up to Syracuse is probably your best bet for dining / drinking / etc.

I love when my customers forget to tell security that I'm coming so I get harassed by a power tripping retiree for 15 minutes because I didn't know to stop for an unmarked truck by the side of the road on a delivery we make unmolested almost daily.

They then of course complain about how long I took. :fuckoff:

Because it went red flag, due to a truck spun with his drivers door facing traffic.

Pretty drat exciting finish holy poo poo.

Watkins is much better overall though, I usually watch it start to finish and I hardly ever do that.

I'm contemplating going to Daytona for the 400....So loving hot though.

Denny either opened the door on purpose, or had a really badly timed gently caress up. Either way, smoke finally won.

A few years ago some friends and I spent a stupid amount of money importing a single bottle of some super classy Japanese rice whiskey. It arrived and the bottle was tiny, like the size of a pop can. Well whatever, we sat around sipping it that night and it was good so we figured we were classy and poo poo. Then a month later I'm in Chicago and walked into World Liquors and saw the same loving bottle for 1/5 what we paid for ours and holy gently caress did I feel like a dumbass.

It's shockingly hard to find poo poo in Japan. Especially poo poo that you want.

I've tried one Japanese whiskey and it was pretty good, I need to find a shop that stocks more around here


I'm about ready to just stick the 928 in storage instead of dealing with dumb shits from CL. Between low ball offers in the 1.5-2k range and people never showing up it's just a pain in the rear end. I can sell cheap (<2k) cars/trucks/bikes in under 24 hours with minimal fuss but anything over 5k seems to be a poo poo show.

You think you've got it bad, try doing the same thing except it's a different businesses' bossman and management, and they're supplying your tools and stuff instead of your company owning it.

Oh it gets better, upper management gave my boss 2500$ to spend and he didn't drop a dime even with the assistant supervisor there trying to get him to buy something, anything.

I miss the King hubs I had on one of my mountainbikes, that ziptie freehub sound is very distinctive (and apparently really annoying to everyone else).

Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

I have done that same trip and the wife and I stayed at the Best Western Space Shuttle Inn. Cheap and close by. Keep in find that Titusville is pretty dead so you will want to have plans for other stuff away from there.

Buy the extra tickets for the Atlantis exhibit and go on the Shuttle Take Off Simulator.

Sailboat? Noice. I stayed in an old converted barn once, the fob on the key to my room was a cow ear tag. And the advert stated "WE HAVE DOGS, HOPE YOU LIKE DOGS" so I basically spent like 2 hours playing with their idiots dogs one day.

Airbnb is good poo poo.

Wait, you're gonna commute on carbon wheels? Yes, you're crazy, even with a long commute.

I'm loving ashamed to be a Californian right now because the state education should have taught casual internet constitutional scholars that freedom of speech is not freedom from the repercussions of blurting out your terrible Nazi ideas, and if the private citizenry metes out an appropriate response to your dumb bullshit it has no connection whatsoever to the 1st amendment protections granted under the Bill of Rights to protect individuals from laws passed by the government.

Melbourne isn't too far away either.

More importantly, the Atlantis exhibit is amazing. I got to go to the soft opening a few years back and it was one of the coolest things I've ever done. Also, tour KSC. They used to offer an "up close and personal" (or similarly named) tour where we got to go on the launch pads and into the VAB.
