Dr. Love gets another.

Hi! This would normally be the slot for guttersnipe but I believe my BIL has fallen in love with another slot therefore he is noticeably absent.

Very happy for him as now when I visit I’ll not have to clean up before settling in to a weekend of booze and weed. That is, if he is still allowed those types of shenanigans.

SO congrats to Cupid for hitting Dick in the dick.

How do you like the cold down there folks? It was warmer in London than in Miami yesterday which I find amusing. Our deep freeze has finally broken and even though it is below freezing it feels like spring here. I made the grave error of trying to warm my frozen garage with my smoker in order to thaw the flat tire off of my wife’s vehicle. Grave? Why? Well, I thought that I had cleaned out the wood chip tray and dear reader I was mistaken. Also, I left a window open in my car which let the smoke in. I feel my ride now has the aroma of Andy Reid.

Speaking of Andy Reid, there seems to be organization going on for a DFO meetup in Kansas City in April for the NFL draft. In doing some scouting I looked up what there is to do there. Booze and bbq seem to be the most interesting things apart from the Negro Leagues Baseball museum. I now understand why Reid moved there, dude is living his best life.

Sports tonight? Don’t know but I bet on Wisconsin ATS as I have a problem and am bored.

Wouldn’t be one of my posts without a bit of wine talk.

Decanting. Should you decant your reds? For the most part yes, however there’s a couple times you would not wish to do so.

  1. Pinot Noir. For the love of Bleergh do NOT decant your pinots or they will taste like nothing as they are a thin skinned grape and fade quickly. In fact if you open a bottle of Pinot then drink it that night and quickly.
  2. Gamay, Dolcetto as they should be served chilled and this is due to their light body and not long lasting flavoUr when they hit air.

When I moved to Scotland I was fairly poor so I bought a juice jug for a decanter. I would open my reds, pour into the jug and then pir back in the bottle. Basically I just double aerated the wine and opened it up. Decanters come in all styles but their purpose is to just give the wine some air. That is it, that is all, so a juice jug is perfect for it.

I recommend most big reds (Cabs, Syrahs, etc) to be open for an hour if you aren’t decanting so grab a juice jug and get to drinking.

Just watched Glass Onion. It’s good, but I liked Knives Out better.

“Oh a sequel, great! I assume you kept/continued the best parts of the first one, right?”
-“Yep, we got Daniel Craig back, baby!”
“…and Rian Johnson, right? And Ana De Armas‘s booty? And all the supporting actors that I kinda recgonized but don’t remember their names but know that they were just as crucial to the final overall product?”
-“….Did we mention it has jokes about Covid?”

Horatio Cornblower

Cast of the first one was definitely better. In particular they didn’t have anyone who hit the notes Jamie Lee Curtis did. But it’s still a fun movie. With more explosions.

ballsofsteelandfury

I enjoyed how it mocked the hell out of Elon Musk.

BugEyedBoo

I liked it. Daniel Craig can’t do southern accents to save his life (c.f. Logan Lucky)

Congratulations Dick. Here’s hoping she’s a ride or die like this:

She can legit throw a punch.

Why did the fat girl climb up on the counter then lean forward and fall?

In unrelated dfo news.

I saw Amsterdam on HBO. I’m typically leary of big ensemble films regardless of how they’re advertised, but I found myself enjoying it, but I felt like it had maybe just had a bit more potential, but still enjoyable.

Also….. I’ve always found anna Taylor-Joy to have a unique look, but putting her next to Rahim Malik, feels like a means spirited prank

SonOfSpam

She is not from this particular planet.

Brocky

It’s the weirdest thing. No one on earth would say she’s not conventionally attractive, yet sometimes she turns her head to a certain angle and suddenly you wonder why you’re looking at the Mutant from spliced!

SonOfSpam

Yes, this exactly. Certainly nawt ugly or anything, and very talented, but also…am I going to be probed or devoured later?

Horatio Cornblower

I’ll worry about “later” later.

TheRevanchist

Yeah, she’s hot in that Jeff Goldblum kinda way. Like unconventionally attractive.

Mr. Ayo

Correct.

Gumbygirl

Gumby thinks she’s hot. I think she’s a few dozen sandwiches short of a Karen Carpenter.She would bone you hard, if ya know whut i mean!

Is BC Dick courting that Jamaican girl he was perving hard on at the bowling alley? Spicy!

herodotus450

I think it’s called “Laning” in this case

Gumbygirl

I would have said “balling” but I’m a fucking lady!

SonOfSpam

tWBS, in an ethereal voice coming from everywhere and nowhere “SHE’S MINE”

BC Dick

Not the Jamaican girl, no. Things move fast in Dick’s world, you see.

I just ordered some Gamay from wine.com’s year end sale, so that’s a very timely tip!

Doktor Zymm

I ordered a bunch of stuff actually, with discounts I ended up getting 18 nice bottles for only ~$280, my wine rack is gonna be overflowing!

Dunstan

Nothing like a woman with an ample rack!

JV East Panthers (I really don’t have a HippoSPEEK for East Carolina) player was just sterilized on national television.

Is tonight going to be the saddest night in Cardinals talk radio history?

Just saw Horatio’s comment about Warhammer, you were short a few pages, and the charts, and the YouTube videos, and (is quietly chloroformed by wife to shut me up)

ArmedandHammered

So what’s the name of the band playing in your basement.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Glastonbury was our rival high school. It was very much of a Pawnee/Eagleton vibe.
