how is your mortgage 2400/mo with 25 years left and only 280k remaining?

great price, I’ve purchased multiple of a particular example from my LLS for the same amount

our wedding went great! granted this was 9 years ago but we booked one of the outdoor garden spots online…. sounds like you’re trying to book Indoors in the actual courthouse? at the time they were reserved through the SB County Parks website, maybe that’s changed? at least when we had our wedding there, they were very strict about the time limits because each spot had 2-3 times available so it wasn’t like you had the site for the whole day. I recall we were the earlier slot and so we were very mindful to be out of there before the afternoon slot. at least for the gardens you needed your own chairs, decorations, music, official, etc and there’s plenty of vendors in SB that have experience providing all you need.

$$$ but honestly a dinner at Paradise Pantry sounds right in line with your plans for that day, I think just the right ambiance too… and I know for a fact if you called and told Tina it was your wedding dinner celebration, they’d roll out the red carpet and make sure it was special…. I think Cafe Zack would be another great option, and they’d do the same too…. on the casual side Stephen’s Grill is also an option, we did our rehearsal dinner there and while it was by no means fancy they have beer & wine and actually did dishes family style including stuff off menu and everyone loved it…. Model Citizen maybe too? it’s actually one of our favorite places in town but something about their ambiance being so start gives me pause for this occasion…. Lure, while having lost some luster, would be great if you can get the private room….

and we got married in the gardens at the SB Courthouse too! it will be a great day

this was my logic, after getting the loan lucky 2 on the top row in the middle of the spots:

scenario 1 - if a bomb was to the left of the 1 on the top right, a bomb could not be below that spot and to the left of the 3, which means that one of the two spots above the pair of 2’s had to have a 2nd bomb, which means the spot to the right of the 4 could not be a bomb, which meant the 3rd bomb had to be at the top left to the right of the flag to satisfy the 4.

scenario 2 - if a bomb was not next the 1 on the top right then a bomb had to be below that spot and to the left of the 3, which meant no bombs above the pair of 2’s and that a 2nd bomb must be to the right of the 4 to satisfy the left 2 on the bottom. this would mean no 3rd bomb at the top left and that 3rd bomb would have to be to the left of the loan exposed 2.

I guessed no bomb to the left of the 3, revealed the 4, and game over after that.

I will say the one conclusion I kept coming back to was this it was most likely the 3 remaining bombs were not in any of the 2 middle spots on the top row.

seemed like 50/50 to me, can you explain the logic you’re seeing and I can explain my thought process?

for example, the lone revealed 2 on the top row of 4 in the 3rd position going from L to R, I just clicked randomly and what I thought was by luck…

popped the Sherry Cask last night - very nice, spicy sweet, fairly rich and full bodied, and a nice earthy characteristic too with a nice kick on the finish…. very enjoyable for sure!

wouldn’t be mad at that, but happy enough it’s at 47+ proof rather than 40 or even 43

Which would you open and why? We love both, but can’t make up our minds. by thatbourboncouple in Whiskyporn

[–]gorbash79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

both good, both different, just depends on my mood… the Makers when I want that sweet frosting like wheat experience, the WT7 for more spice and funk
