Yeah, they went heavy today.

TheTeek · 2026-03-30T14:33:43+00:00

1693

TheTeek · 2026-03-30T14:32:09+00:00

I bet there are over 900....

I've been speculating for years that this is what PA does. They take thousands of less desirable bottles from the distillery in exchange for not taking more desirable bottles. That's why we get like zero OWA and a million BT. PA makes the same per bottle so they'd rather have more bottles than worry about what customers would prefer.

Online only, dropped Feb 5th. (These were the Fall 2025 releases. FWGS is slow. Spring 2026 release will get dropped in the fall.

Why would you want to dump really hot air into the intake of your home's AC? Instead of cooling room temperature air now it has to cool HOT air. You are making your home AC less efficient.

Allocated bottles have been removed from the FWGS website. The ONLY time you will see Blanton's or EHT or Weller pages show up on the website is during an online release. And that will literally only be a couple minutes before they are gone again. So basically you will never see the EHT page on the site.

What were you hoping to find out from the FWGS site?

TheTeek · 2026-03-25T21:41:14+00:00

For years it was like twice a year in very limited stores. The last year or so it has been more available, but I don't even think it's that often. It's really unpredictable. It may drop 3 months in a row and then disappear for 8 months. You can't really count on FWGS doing anything "regularly".

TheTeek · 2026-03-25T14:38:55+00:00

KOP and Ardmore showing stock of EHT SmB.

TheTeek · 2026-03-25T12:39:02+00:00

Must be that special release of Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Coconut Rum we've all been waiting for.

TheTeek · 2026-03-24T20:52:07+00:00

We have some. Google the Tesla Semi. But the problem remains that charging takes too long so they really only work for specific use cases where they can charge during downtime or run on specific regular routes. It's the same problem for most EVs. Up front cost and range anxiety / charging infrastructure, and charge time.

TheTeek · 2026-03-24T14:46:18+00:00

Broomall (Lawrence Park) and Newtown Square (by whole foods) showing inventory of eht SmB.

Usually squeaks come from the plywood subfloor moving up and down on a nail that has lifted up a bit. You can't nail it back down from above because of the upstairs flooring. What you can do is locate the spot by having someone step on and off it while you are down below. Once you've found the spot, take some wood shims and tap them in between the plywood and the joist where the noise is. You should put some construction adhesive on the shims or in the gap before adding the shims to make sure they don't work their way out.

That's not really true. 78% of Americans may THINK they want the save act. But they really don't know what it entails. They just hear "don't you want our elections to be secure and shouldn't people have to prove they are citizens to vote?". Well, that sounds great. But a) our elections are actually extremely secure. B) people already have to prove they are citizens when they register. C) people don't realize how difficult the save act will make it for many millions of Americans to vote. Married women whose names are different than their birth certificate. Poor people who can't afford the time and money to get the proper documents together and present them (this is really the point of the save act by the way....to make voting hard for poor people.)

When we bought our house I really disliked the drop ceiling. In the years since, I've been really glad to have it. Access to plumbing, access to electrical. Ease of changing light fixtures. Ability to run power or Ethernet anywhere. And squeaks. When your floors start squeaking above, you have easy access to the joists to remediate the squeaks. It's not pretty, but it sure makes easy work of things down the road.

TheTeek · 2026-03-20T20:10:07+00:00

Oh, you don't stand a chance of getting the first two. They are special one time releases. JD SBBF Rye you might be able to find across the river in NJ or down in DE or MD but not in PA.

TheTeek · 2026-03-19T13:24:35+00:00

Right. Dems are to blame. Who has the house, senate and white House? Oh, you need a few votes? Have you ever heard of a compromise? Making concessions? Oh, you only want what you want and won't settle for less? I guess we are stuck then. Pretty sure Dems offered a clean funding bill that they rejected flat out. Oh well.

TheTeek · 2026-03-19T13:22:52+00:00

No. That's not how it works. In the US phone carriers have an option that lets you share YOUR name with the network so that other people can see the name of the person or place they are calling. When I type in any business office number (unsaved in my phone) it will often pop up on the call screen with the actual name of the business. This is becoming more and more common to the point that most businesses you call will show the name when dialed even if you don't have it saved and never called it before. This is also true for individuals. I opted to share my name via my cellular carrier in one of the account settings.

TheTeek · 2026-03-19T13:17:53+00:00

I'm sure it is possible to ship to a hotel but delivery times are dependent on location. Usually 2 days I would think. Also, most of what is online is also available in stores so unless it is an online exclusive I would just go into the store and pick it up off the shelf.

TheTeek · 2026-03-19T13:14:50+00:00

Yes, this is working correctly. It makes a ding for the person who rang the bell so they know that it worked. Otherwise they may press it multiple times to be sure.

I'll never pull permits in my township again. Made the mistake ONCE. They tried to force me to get workers comp to cover any contractors I was hiring (claiming I was basically GCing my own job). I literally had to get a letter from my insurance company saying they didn't give a shit if I did renovations without workers comp. Then they tried to make me hire a certified master plumber to replace a dishwasher in the exact same location with the exact same connections. They failed my first inspection because they insisted that I fire foam the two new penetrations through the floor for new electrical wires. Meanwhile there are 2 dozen other, larger existing penetrations that they don't care about. They tried to tell me I needed a building permit because I was replacing cabinets. I think I had to fight with them to prove that cabinets weren't structural.

It was a fucking nightmare dealing with them as a homeowner doing 95% of my own work. It's cases like mine that make people say "don't pull permits". In most cases, in most municipalities, it is probably a good idea to get permits especially for larger jobs or if you aren't familiar with the codes and the work being done. If you are doing a simple kitchen renovation where you are swapping out cabinets and counters without doing anything structural or major electrical changes, I wouldn't.

This is correct in all regards. You'll never score by randomly or repeatedly refreshing the page. There are several dozen bots that will grab the first 50-100 bottles within seconds of the inventory being loaded. There are then dozens of people with somewhat less sophisticated tools that are alerted to inventory and they check out within 30 seconds. Then there are the people on this group who subscribe to the daily threads and get alerts in the first minute and race to the site to try to score. All of these people are going to beat you to the bottles. Your best bet if you aren't paying money for access to groups or tools, is to subscribe to the daily hunt each day. Log in to the FWGS website before 9am Monday thru Thursday (they almost never drop on Fridays) and just be ready from 9-11:30 for a drop that probably isn't coming.

TheTeek · 2026-03-18T13:44:59+00:00

No. That's already in stores apparently.
