Easy to find. It’s right on Pennsylvania Avenue, SE. Between 14th and 15th. Two bars on the block. His is the further southeast one called “Wisdom”.
haha, sounds good. if GD09 is in DC, we’re going there. done.
Chris, what did his fastball look like? I’ve heard everything from sitting 88-89 to 92-93.
i am putting it in my phone. im there 2 nights before the wedding(because i cant get a direct flight and have to take AMTRAK!) so i am itching for places
I actually haven’t tried absinthe yet. I have this strange idea that I would do something incredibly stupid if I tried it.
fabric softener sheets in a paper towel tube was what i used to hide smoke at my folks house. amazing shit ;)
we tried to make absinthe once, that didnt go well
i’ve never had the real stuff either.
Sweet. Yeah, Wisdom is the martini bar. If you end up wanting more neighborhoody bar fare, there’s my favorite hangout Trusty’s next door. Great burgers too.
while doing the bsg podcast, ronald d moore always mentions what scotch or burben he is drinking.
btw dep, i left early but it looks like it came. i am told i have a yellow envelop on my desk.
also, i went to citifield again. im in promanade club row 2 behind home, but to the first base side.. my only issue if the lf corner. no biggie.
the 1st row in my section, you are looking through the railing to see some of home. leaning forward a bit takes care of that.
in the sections where there are the signage leds, you cant look through the railings (duh), but leaning forward or sitting at the edge of the seat take care of most of that. other wise you cant see first or home. eeek.
row 2 and up dont seem to have any issues.
if you have a seat on the second part of the promenade and you are next to the steps, you are watching the game through the glass.
i really like the ada seating in the promenade.
my rep said they will work with you if someone wanted to change.
btw im 5′10″
They’ve got four of five different kinds of absinthe, American, French, etc. Just sounds dangerous.
He was hitting 92. It has some real late movement. Kid was over pumped. He needs a change of pace pitch. I heard he has a circle change but he didnt use it when I was watching. I can see why they are excited.
im pathecic personally but i dont live with my rents! i promise. itemized tax return and everyting
awesome on both counts!
i cant taste any of that. that flavor is rough
I don’t know. We’ll see. I’ve had my full of Atlanta’s “future aces” over the years to get too worried.
hahahaha
parents/wifey whatevah ;)
BTW, LOL @ Frenchy’s new stance. You know how he was leaning forward previously. He is now leaning back. It looks retarded and I don’t know how he going to generate power. All arms swing
so that dude’s pictures were true then in your opinion right?
depper…we are opening another joint here in st.l…..it’s all about owning the building and being in an up and coming neighborhood….and finding workers that don’t steal…pants is right
professial (sp) barkeeps is the key
that’s awesome timmy.
yea i honestly have a friend to manage and 2 other friends that tend bar, i would start with them. they’ll probly only steal a little hahaha
NYC is a bit crazy for a bar. i’d really like to do it somewhere else. my one good friend has managed like 10 places over the years and the horror stories are crazy. so much can go sooo wrong. I think you can minimize some variables more if i go out of nyc.
whatever, i probly wont do it.
best of luck with the new place.
Bullshit call. Anderson took a flop and ahalf on that.
yup.
i also looked from the lower level. they can definately move them down, without much obstruction to the ppl sitting there. other than fly balls. and this is only for the last couple of rows. from these rows, you cant even see the out of board scoreboard now, so a little lower wouldnt hurt much.
i so dare you to post a thread titled “Saltzy was right” on ‘fugees.
(dont do it please) ;)
re: owning the building.
i watch anthony bodains no reservations tv show. he did a show this week of great restaurants that have been a round for a while. one thing they all had in common? they owned the building they were in.
nyc would be a hard place to break into the bar scene…we have a lot of little hoods that are springing back to life here, so you just have to pick the right area and sick it out, hope the hood catches up with you..you don’t want to be the Alamo in a shitty neighborhood…
sucks about lew….specially with a youngin on the way.
tim, a lot of bars in Philly started that way. The neighborhood I lived in went from shitsville to yuppie town over about 10 years and a lot of bars really took off that got in on it while the housing values were still low and they could buy the buildings.
hmmmmmmmmm
lol @ alamo
sweetlew will bounce back or he’ll kill ppl for money. i’m not worried.
I’m assuming lew is smart enough to be able to pick up contract gigs while looking for permanent employment. My lawyer buddy in NYC has been doing the same thing since he graduated and has made a good living out of it.
Storky, you still watching the game or are you covering your eyes?
wow. murphy is a real gump. my faith has increased
murphy is the man. he’s so likable its ridiculous
It sucks losing a job and I can only imagine with a family how tough that shit is. Best of luck Lew.
mets need gumps. a red ass bascially.
I’m in! Not a bad period, though it got a little scary at the end. Bullshit penalty and a nice scoring op for Duby, but he wasn’t in position. That 3 on 1 by Florida… dude. We thought our offense was shit? Wow. How did they fuck that up. Taylor made.
Hate to sound like a broken record, but GOTTA SCORE SOME GOALS!
Goals would be nice.
ha ha fred thompson on life on mars mention the mets.
haha TOLL-E!
did he confused? i dont even remember that.
RE: absinthe
It’s a higher proof anisette. I’ve got some Suisse La Bleue prior to the ban lift. In order for them to smuggle it out of the country and into ours, they had to make it clear as opposed to it’s signature green. Also no professional labeling. I like it because it tastes very much like anisette, but with a bit more kick.
It’s bad rep comes courtesy of a vicious French wine industry that was getting worried about it’s widening popularity. There is nothing wrong with the stuff. It doesn’t make you high, it doesn’t make you hallucinate, and it sure as shit won’t kill you any faster than any other liquor on the market. It’s all bullshit, particularly all the fear over the use of wormwood.
is it a licorice taste? me no likey anise.
in his first scene when he met spacemen.
Me, neither, Timmy. Hate it!!
Yup. I love anisette. Italians in this country typically use Stock, but that shit sucks. Marie Brizard is the way to go. It’s French, but I can look past that. ;)
Anyway, I love absinthe. Though you don’t wanna go putting that in your espresso. Stick with the anisette or sambuca.
omg how did he not score there….
Athena! how are ya…what’s crack a lackin?
fuckin Gomez. Come on! Put one in the net! Now they are short handed. Sonova…
Storky, I just worry about the pure drunkenness effect. I’m a lightweight.
From Rubin
It was another BS goalie interference penalty too.
I like how Redden is playing this game. He’s taking shots and skating.
Hi Tim!! I’m fine. Thanks for asking. Nothing much going on. I don’t think I’ve ever been so at-loose-ends in my entire life. I’m ready to jump out of my skin. Can’t wait for opening day!
How are you?
There’s nothing to worry about. Like I said, it’s no worse than any other hard liquor. Lots of negative vibes around that stuff, all of it bullshit. Make no mistake, it’s powerful. 90 proof. But so are many other liquors out there. If you like that type of liquor (the taste for instance), then you should try it. It’s a unique experience.
Oh, and fuck this fucking team not being able to capitalize on scoring ops!!!!!!!!
Much better the past two games. This is how he SHOULD be playing.
And you gotta be loving Dubinsky this game. Eventually, this guy is going to find his scoring touch. I think he’ll end up being a slightly better Mike Richards.
Oh sweet Jesus.
Un
fucking
believable
sorry guise :(
This is a joke, right?
Shouldn’t they have like 5 goals by now? Instead it’s tied.
What a motherfucker.
All these great chances the Rangers are getting and Florida ties it on that crap.
new author same story
He better find that scoring touch. And if he can’t then someone outta help him out. Maybe look under the seat cushions or somethin. Cause that kid should be scoring at a MUCH higher clip than he currently is.
…. Fuck.
I think I might just break out the absinthe spoon and stir me up a nice glass.
That’s right, Rangers! You did this to me!
::gulp:: ::burp::
Ah. Good shit…
This is like watching a mets game
I have my own nice TV and couch and DVR..the hook up…so why do I have to watch hockey on the small set while American Idol rears it’s tone deaf head in the living room?
If you look close enough, you can see the vein in Torts head pulsating.
Man up, son! Tell the family to take a walk. It’s guy time in front of the big screen. ;)
You mean, sort of like mine?
I feel the stroke happ[ening
I’m good athena…70 degrees today, hit golf balls….3-5 inches of snow coming Sat. WTF
You guys are gettin all worked up for the Rangers, can’t wait to see what happens this baseball season. Hot the Mets get off to a hot start, for all of your sanity:)
citi tour 2 (96 images)
You love this shit! Fucker. I hate you.
::gulp:: ::burp::
Ooooh… sorry. That’s the alcohol talking.
No really. I hate you.
::gulp:: ::burp::
LMAO!
Fire Sather! Fire Sather! Fire Sather!
Christ. What a mess.
The Rangers look utterly demoralized now. Tortorella should call a time out.
Confused, I’ve been meaning to ask. How did you manage to get in there for a tour? that’s really cool. You took some great shots too.
Dominated this game for over 2 periods with scoring chances up the ass. Only one goal to show for it.
And now they trail and may not even get a point for their efforts. This one game sums up the past few weeks with them. It really does.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck.
mad,
i know somebody who knows somebody.
they are giving tours to those who are thinking of getting season tickets. i already had season tickets so, i should of technically have toured (let alone twice). but the first time we moved seats.
ppl taking the tours have to purchase the tour for $50 (non refundable). we didnt pay anything. season ticket holder are going to be given a tour b4 the season starts they say.
this is a collage of all the pics i took during both visits. it take a bit to load, but you can zoom in if you want.
So, how bout them… uh… well what about the uh… yeah. I got nothin.
Great game. Where’s my heart? Oh! On the floor. Hey! Who stomped on that? Shit.
sny doing their own cititour right now.
Very nice. Great job, Confused. That’s really a once in a lifetime opportunity to get to tour a brand new stadium prior to it opening.
OK. I’m done for the evening. That was way too intense for me. Now I have to prepare formula. Why can’t he just drink milk?!?!?
Simons will have no competition tonight. I’m giving him a gift.
Have a great nite peeps!
night
yankee hat patch.
Snow on Saturday after 70 degrees?? Dear Lord. That’s crazy!
If Hot=Hope in that sentence, I can only say - me,too!!!
Ummmmmm, and good luck to your boys, too. I guess I’m obligated as a friend to say that. ;-)
here’s an early ST cubs’ scouting report with regard to their 5 spot:
samardzija: so-so
marshall: bad
gaudin: bad
heidelman: we shall see what we shall see..
yes you are, regardless of conviction!
Big win for the Blues, 3 points out of a PO spot….Chris Mason 40+ saves…fricken love hockey!
Forgot what site I was on for a sec….sorry….
