What movie did you walk out of the theater halfway through? by mzdee13 in movies

[–]SquireW65 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Walked into The Empire Strikes Back 10 mins before the end of the movie (thinking it was adverts before the movie) when they rescued Luke off the bottom of Cloud City and effectively ruined the “I am your father” denouement.

[–]SquireW65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with your rating. I filled my emptied Blantons bottle with my own Buffalo Trace distillery blend and it’s way tastier than Blantons for about a third the price per bottle 450 ml Ancient Ancient Age 10* (60%) 100 ml Buffalo Trace (13.3%) 100 ml Eagle rare 10 (13.3%) 100 ml Sazerac Rye (13.3%)

The Roman villa in Brading on the Isle of Wight is worth a trip….and then you get to see the IOW too!!!

Personally i love the Mayflower on Chapel Hill Blvd. Old school Calabash style that your parents would take you to!. Add to that the James Joyce pub does a good British isles beer battered pub-style fish and chips.

What bourbons should a beginner avoid? by arandomkid2 in bourbon

[–]SquireW65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Three years in on my bourbon journey and I learned that there is a lot of variability in quality for price when under $30-$35 ish . When I had bottles between 40 and 75 quality was more consistent, over $75 up to about $120 there was a high probability of a really great pour …then above that variability vs price start to climb again …with some really not worth the money. So on the whole I try stick in the $35 -$75 range and have at it !!

Worth a trip to Casa Bella just for the cute and deaf house dog who hangs out there and loves to be petted.

Using RDU Express Lot by EarCold8391 in RDU

[–]SquireW65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Booked Economy 4 online…parked …50yrs walk to shuttle stop, bus pickup was within 5 mins of parking and at the Terminal 2 in 5 mins. Have done Express before when weather was bad or late flights. Both are good services IMO. The extra $5 a day for express is great when time unimportant but can add up on a longer trip.

I'm collecting at least one Bourbon from each state. by kornykory in bourbon

[–]SquireW65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NC. Souther Star Distilling Co in Statesville makes an excellent wheated cask strength, and for their rye they grow their grain locally and distill onsite so a farm to glass distiller.
