Don't know what any of that is, just glad you're here to keep things entertaining, God knows this place needs it. So many people gone from years past and even Rob has gone MIA.....again..lol. Is what it is I guess.

Basically I'm unique and don't think like other humans. I prefer to think for myself.

Fireball Firekeg
Canada- With 5.25 Liters of Fireball, this keg is sure to light up any party, tailgate, or gathering! That's over 100 shots to share - no one gets left out. Like standing face to face with a fire-breathing dragon, Fireball tastes like heaven and burns like hell!

Dublin university choir sings poignant ‘Auld Lang Syne’ in resonant acoustic
A moment of beautiful choral singing, and Robbie Burns’ timeless message in music.

They are really good! 👍
never been a fan of bulleit.
this is my favorite and is comparable to it:
Bib & Tucker 6 Year Bourbon
Tennessee- Aromas of vanilla, freshly mowed grass and leather-bound books. Notes of sweet fruit, vanilla beans, caramel and dried apricots dominate the palate, and are complemented by a subtle touch of ginger spice. The finish is complex and lingers, with hints of chestnuts and corn.

It's 8 hours into 2024 as I post this. Happy New Year. 新年快乐。

Just got done putting my dvds in the shelves and hooking back up my dish network.. WOOO..
Tonight I will be homebound at my sister's place, when they are going out as well as drinking and having board games with pretzels too.
They will be home about eleven p.m. tonight.

I thought Chinese New Year was an entirely different time of the year? Plus aren't they in like the way future compared to the U.S.?
Four hours and counting. I think I'll make it. I had a great time at the cabin and I left them grilling burgers and dogs. Lots to drink and lots of snacks with my life long friends is hard to beat! Safe at home with my forum friends is the icing on the cake!
Happy New Year my good friends. May 2024 be a wonderful year for everyone.
Being as I was home for a change, I took the opportunity to ring my bell. It's been eight or ten years since it last was used. What a beautiful sound and I suspect it was heard blocks away. If it was elevated as in a tower, I bet the sound would travel a mile or more. I'm sure my neighbors were happy to hear me home. 
......I suspect it was heard blocks away......
Growing up, Mercury, Gemini and Apollo rockets were the big thing. Me and the next door neighbor kid were mini Wernher von Braun's kids and we found a book on rocketry. We started building solid fuel rockets using pipes. It took us quite a while to get the solid fuel mixture and thrust correct. Once we got the solid fuel and thrust correct we built a pretty big rocket.
The night we launched it off, it went up about 200ft and blew up. It left a gigantic smoke ring in the sky. The explosion was so loud our ears were ringing. Our parents thought we killed our self. The next day people around the neighborhood were talking about the explosion they heard. People a block away said their windows rattled from the explosion.

That's the Lunar New Year, which in 2024 is 10th February, Year of the Dragon. This is a main public holiday here in China. Chinese New Year - Wikipedia
Only some hours in the future compared to the US. CST(Beijing Time) is always plus 8 hours of UTC(Greenwich Mean Time). US is minus of UTC.

We had the usual gun shots mixed with the fireworks last nite.
By 12:30 all was quiet again and i was able to go to sleep.
Today is feast day, I cooked the purple hulls and made the tater salad yesterday, got to put the ham in the oven, and boil cabbage, going to make cornbread in a bit after the surfing is done.
today is the first day of the rest of the year !

I'll be fixing black eyed peas and cornbread to go with my baked salmon. It's one of my favorite meals that we only have a couple of times a year. Always on New Years day... always!
yay!!!!! i survived the new year!!!!!!!!
just finished making my cioppino....it was so good. for those who do not know, it is basically a seafood stew. i made it with dungenese crab, oysters(wholefoods did not have mussels), little neck clams, and halibut. i also had parsnips(carrots without the orange), fennel, and onions. i served it with some nice toasted, crusty french bread. it is perfect for a hangover.

Meh, another year, another dose of EZGO RXVs at the shop. One with possible fried controller. NOT looking forward to telling the customer about the $2500 bill.
He had put a 5th battery in a pack of four batteries and overvolted the damn thing. I bet he thought 'more power!!!' FYI Home Improvement was a sitcom, not really meant to be taken as serious home improvement tips, fool.
Also, Wear OS is still awful. Galaxy Watch 6 still has reversed home/back buttons, STILL no rotary app drawer or app badges for notifications, it STILL keeps relocking itself even when wearing it (just had to re-enter PIN for the 10th time today!!!) and I still have zero alti-barometer app, widget, battery life still sucks, and I hate how I have to enter my PIN even once when putting it on. My original Tizen Galaxy Watch only needed you to enter the PIN to use Samsung Pay, and only the first time you used it. You never needed to use a PIN to just look at your notifications or open apps.
Samsung, PLEASE go back to Tizen!!!
I'm not giving up yet, but boy this year looks to be much the same as the last few...
