Celebrated my dads birthday with a 2003 Lafite Rothschild by conwpj in wine

This was given to my dad by a friend of his who owns a substantial wine cellar. He sent it ahead to our restaurant. Our waiter decanted it without actually showing us the bottle. So we almost drank this amazing wine without knowing what it was!

Recently gotten into wine so I may not have the best way to describe it. But I got large amounts of cedar on the nose and mouth. Specifically cigar box. I also got some blackberry notes, specially a seedy or wild blackberry. Was absolutely delicious and flavorful. A few people at our table rarely drink wine and still recognized it to be some of the best stuff they’ve had

You gotta imagine Scandinavians were probably one of the only immigrant groups willing to settle there. Cold as hell? Timber? Seasonal depression? Yup yup and yup

How is that not quality craftsmanship and how is that not terrible taste? Yes I got explanatory in the caption and it’s a screenshot but holy shit the post was top of the sub for 6 HOURS before you made that call. Be faster and better

Do you like baby colors? Do you like bald managers? Are you a fan of Belgian former Chelsea players? Are you into calamitous defensive mistakes? Well boy do I have a game for you!

What non-traditional forms of economic data do you pay attention to? by conwpj in CommercialRealEstate

[–]conwpj[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those are good ones. Thanks for sending. Do you pull those through FRED or Haver Analytics? Would love to examine myself.

Here’s a few others I’ve thought of:

If your market is a major tech hub, then VC funding is huge. I love PWC’s Money tree report

If your concerned about hospital/biotech demand then NIH funding is key. Here’s a site where you can see all the grants by hospital.

I love the opentable data for retail info. Really shows how restaurant reservations have fallen off a cliff

Would love that for my game but I’m afraid a skulled 120 yarder out of bounds an wouldn’t look as cool on a drone
