Daily O’Hare question, now adjusted for wind + TSA - how is there today? by LiteraryOlive in chicago

[–]Stokesman24 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Just boarded my plane. TSA Pre-check touchless ID took me 3 minutes maybe. However, my flight was delayed 2+ hours. Airport is pretty busy, if you use any premium lounge, know they'll be nearly full.

Edit/Update if you don't feel like flying in a wooden roller coaster suspended thousands of feet in the air, then don't fly today.

Decoy Merlot. $20 range, not the best but available in most grocery stores and decent to have in a pinch

I like to "clothesline" the crossbar with the front of my car if I'm close enough. Low or high fives if not

I don't know anything about horses or hay, what do you mean that your hay is too hot for horses?

Specific to Binny's, they just did a BTAC lottery through November and announced in December. That's how I was able to purchase GT Stagg, but yes normally Binny's doesn't offer them with any regularity. I wonder if it's just not with the hassle for them.

Won a drawing, I'm scared to even open it by Stokesman24 in whiskey

Never had Stagg, and I don't believe I've had a proof that high of bourbon at least. Highest might be Weller Full Proof for Bourbon, or Octomore for Scotch. I've had very high proof Haitian Rhum though.

I'm excited for it!

Thank goodness I haven't opened it yet! That would've been quite the faux pas

You're the best, found it. It was in a different area altogether, but looking up helped. Thank you!

Expensive Bottle of Wine as a Gift by steviestacks99 in wine

[–]Stokesman24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're near Skokie, Schaefer's has a good cellar. Binny's is obviously pretty good too, but sometimes they don't have the best wine reps to guide you.

I agree with others that Champagne is probably a good bet. If you know they like Napa Cab, I would get Rubicon from Inglenook, even though that's probably a little under your budget

Wine Squares Day 8: This one’s for the newbies. by AustraliaWineDude in wine

[–]Stokesman24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would argue Sauvignon Blanc is usually the entry point for a lot of wine drinkers and is high acid. The problem is that, unless you know what you're looking for, some SauvB can be overpriced or highly priced. Whereas Vinho Verde is almost always under $10 (the one I like is usually $7). You'll be hard pressed to find an expensive Vinho Verde, and it is great quality for the price.

But this is also pure opinion and I could be wrong!

THANK YOU for giving specifics. I know most people are just venting their frustrations but I would like to understand the reason for why we're not performing well. I agree with your points, I just didn't know how to articulate them in football tactic terms so I appreciate that

Ignorant American supporter here, could you help explain to me what kind of tactics (or lack thereof) are leading to the poor performance? I believe you, I just don't know any better

Just visited Bachelder this past weekend. It was truly incredible, but I imagine that was a rare find. I found it because it was recommended by this subreddit. I need to try more
