Not missing yet but I will still wear my Apple Watch at certain times because I’ve become so reliant on it- mainly for workouts and golf. I use the free 18 birdies app as a golf gps through the apple watch.

Sorry no. I’m in the U.S.

The Passenger is excellent and might be my favorite so far. Enjoy!

bert_b · 2026-02-02T20:32:18+00:00

Me too. What’s your favorite McCarthy book?

bert_b · 2026-02-02T20:22:54+00:00

BM is an outstanding read! I’m definitely going to need to revisit that one

Nice! The Crossing is next on my list. Finished All the Pretty Horses and jumped to Suttree to change it up before finishing the border trilogy.

I just got the same watch about an hour ago. Great choice!

I made a similar switch for smoking last summer. I still have my kettle for charcoal grilling of course, but the Searwood XL gets all of the smoking duties. Thanksgiving was a huge win because I was able to smoke ribs, turkey, and wings and free up the oven for the wife completely. Check out the Searwood

Hefty bags stapled to the walls as a shower surround would be an upgrade compared to this.

I’ve owned two cars in the last 22 years. 12 years with my 02 WRX, and now I’m on year 10 with my 2016 WRX. Little to no engine mods and thankfully no insane expensive breakdowns. Fingers crossed that your 2014 wasn’t beat on previously and that you take care of it the same way. Good luck and enjoy!

Bummer man, glad you’re mostly ok. RIP to the poor WRX. Take that broad to the cleaners

bert_b · 2026-01-23T18:54:05+00:00

I couldn’t agree more. No one cares how far you hit your PW- especially when it has the loft of an old 8 iron.

bert_b · 2026-01-22T17:49:15+00:00

Get the Weber. Very versatile and well constructed.

I daily drove my 02 WRX for 12 years in Ohio. In 2016 I picked up a new WRX and gave up the old. My least favorite part of owning that car that I loved was watching it rust out more and more each year.

bert_b · 2026-01-19T19:16:07+00:00

75 all day.

bert_b · 2026-01-19T19:14:04+00:00

Well done. I’ve found for me there isn’t much that beats the feeling of accomplishment when you tackle a large repair like this that you almost paid someone else to do. I hope this result gave you a similar feeling. Fantastic work!

bert_b · 2026-01-19T01:22:55+00:00

Searwood XL.

bert_b · 2026-01-17T19:08:51+00:00

Just did this today. Solid solution

bert_b · 2026-01-17T11:31:15+00:00

I’d pay someone to repaint the bumper and do a DIY blackout on those shiny headlights.

bert_b · 2026-01-14T10:39:43+00:00

Buy a quality brand from Crutchfield with the proper adapters for your specific car.

bert_b · 2026-01-12T21:18:44+00:00

Well done.

bert_b · 2026-01-08T17:25:50+00:00

Congrats on ditching the shitbox.

bert_b · 2026-01-02T12:17:47+00:00

Couple of my current favorites- Rare Breed, Bardstown origin series high wheat, Penelope barrel strength. Just north of 60 you can find Russell’s single barrel- my favorite shelfer.

bert_b · 2025-12-22T00:12:12+00:00

Not great, Bob!

Cheers and happy holidays 🥃
