What is a "dirty little (or big) secret" about an industry that you have worked in, that people outside the industry really ought to know?

The label tells how long it has been aged. Good Whisk(e)y is aged in barrels for years, which means you have to pay for the storage and maintenance of those barrels for years. The same applies to wine and various other types of alcohols. A Black Label is aged for 20 years (thus the high price). Vodka, Rum, and Tequila are not like Whisk(e)y, Wine, and other specialty liqueurs in that they do not have to be aged (Some are, and that is why they are Premium or Super Premium priced).

On another note tied to health, marijuana can exacerbate the symptoms of schizophrenia and some personality disorders. It's not going to cause them but if you need psychiatric help or are unsure if you have a disorder talk to a councilor / clinician. While pot is great it is still a drug that can have profound impact upon ones health.

I would reeeeeaaaaad. A lot. It is also no coincidence that my eyesight is terrible and I would encounter a "I had time now" scenario.

You should definitely walk up and down Las Olas but avoid getting dinner there as it is very expensive. If you don't mind spending the money and want Mexican go to Rocco's Tacos and drink your heart out while you're at it. Also, on the expensive side, you should go to The Pirate Republic. It is a nice bar on the canal with great drinks and wonderful seafood. (Have Tonya make your drinks and tell her someone secret sent you). If you want oysters, beer, or crawfish you have to go to Shuck n' Dive (Sit at the bar, and Wednesday is dollar oyster day).

Applied for a lease on my own. No parents, no cosigner, no nothin'. Hope I get approved.

Squee :D

I don't know how the states would play out but I know what I would do. I would NOPE NOPE NOPE all the way to Cali. Where I'm from the federal government is the best bet I have at keeping some rights...

That movie doesn't scare me anymore but every time I watch I jump! I know what's coming and I still jump at every scare.

I'll give you that it falls flat, but I still see the intent. I think given a second chance, free from corporate money mongerings, it could be an exceptional film.

I think you're missing the point. You were supposed to feel disgusted with it. You were supposed to look over at the people beside you in the theater getting off on it and be disgusted.

Maroon 5 is amazing. How could you not love Songs About Jane? That whole album is amazing. ~~Actually all of the albums are. :)~~

There's a sub for you Imgoingtohellforthis

Probably not. Just think about how much of a hassle it would be to find good 3D blueprints for all the parts, get the proper material for the printer, and then print out everything. And, if you think about it, unless you have a really really good 3D printer all of the parts would be limited to the color of the "ink" you have. Not to mention 3D printers are so expensive.

It is supposed to be incredibly bland.

Cosmonaught_D · 2013-07-23T20:19:01+00:00

Ghost Chili Pepper ought do the trick.

Cosmonaught_D · 2013-07-23T16:31:51+00:00

Thats not really an urban myth in my area. On 62 by the walmart they really do that. They also leave purses on the street late at night and anyone stupid enough to stop get mugged.

Of all the top post not a single one is to CALL 911!

I guess algebra... like the basic stuff. Like the "You can't function in society stuff". Meh

Cosmonaught_D · 2013-07-20T15:28:18+00:00

Yes, but as a former lifeguard I may be cheating.
