    Yeah, yeah, I missed that one, badly. But, in my defense, I am supposed to be working right now.

    I once ate at Outback, where there was some deal that included "free beer" with meal. It only included Bud Light. Or a free Coke if you didn't want beer. I told the waiter I'd take Coke, b/c I'd probably get a bigger buzz off of it.

    maybe I should say I intentionally left that one hanging for OPK to slam dunk.

    yes, I managed one Outback meal, that was sufficient.

    An alley-oop assist.

    (most of my game is above the rim, anyways)

    We went on a winery tour around our area with some friends. Hired a driver and everything. My buddies wanted to grab beer and I handed them a $20 assuming they could handle the responsibility while I visited the facilities. They came back with a case of Bud Light. I drank none of the beer I paid for, and sat in silent judgment for the rest of the trip.

    You felt the need to buy beer on a winery tour?

    Rednecks. I hang out with competitive drinkers. You don't get good at it by doing it halfway.

    For the upcoming Virtual Beer Pub, I asked if "not Bud Light" was a specific enough category. (I am more of a wine drinker so it is a risk they took by asking me to host.)

    I ended up with wine barrel aged beers as the category. We will see how it goes.

    Look forward to the zoom, even if I'm toting water. A great category!!!!

    (I am more a wine and spirits drinker than beer, but they tolerate me relatively politely in the VP's).

    My take, at least.
    Seconded! It's terrific! If you can't trust your chum OPK, who can you trust?! It is laugh out loud funny and also poignant at times. Can't wait for the rumored next season.

    OPK, the scene where Higgins is practicing his upright base, good lord did we laugh.
    Nothing incites bodily violence quicker than a Duke fan turning in your direction and saying 'scoreboard.'

    Great scene!

    My understanding is that the second season is in production (or pre-production whatever that is), and that the show is planned for a three-season story arc and conclusion. Always, of course, subject to change.

    You know we were ill behaved in the POTUS thread if Bostondevil is so disgusted by us right now she isn't posting in her own thread. I feel like we should buy her a nice fern or something.

    Send her yarn - I think she would appreciate it much more than a fern.

    I made a New Years resolution to stop making cougar jokes. So, here I am, 25 days in standing on the precipice staring into a black pit and you come along like King Leonidas about to kick me into it...
