The PIC whore club! Come on in!

I mean, there is that classic phrase as well. haha
It's not quite as bad anymore, but the ratio definitely isn't in the favor of straight men. haha
Nor necessarily in the favor of straight women either, based on the general types of guys who find their way up there, myself in included. haha
Nerds like myself are not the most loved group, and it's very nerdy school. haha

For sure! I was channeling thoughts from back in the day when the student body was primarily hockey players and guys that liked to build stuff.

University I went to in the UP (Michigan Tech) definitely had an exit door on the second floor of some of the buildings for when the snow piled up so much. Nowadays they're pretty good with snow removal, so the doors aren't used as much anymore. But they're there.

I also remember driving down the driveway with the snow piled up over the roof of the SUV on either side growing up. Definitely a lot of snow. And I miss it very much. haha

And . . . TRAYING !!!

The view from our patio of our Santa Rita Mountains that are rarely snow covered as we have cocktails looking through our double sliding glass door in the great room. Base of the mountains is 4000 ft....snow line just below that.... Cloud covered peak is 9250 ft. Our patio 3000 ft...

Afternoon cocktails! I'm curious, Phil, what's your go-to Scotch? I prefer the heavily peated Islay single malts.

Your truck look great! Are those Fox 2.5 coilovers? If so, can you give us your thoughts on how it rides both on the street as well as off road? There is very little info available about that setup.

Love, the bike! I had a friend who rode Husqvarnas. We then both switched to KTM 300 MXC's. This was back in the mid 90's though when we raced in Baja.

Hi Tony,

Go to Scotch is Glen Levitt 12. Did try a Costco Blend and was okay as they were out of Glen when we were up in Tucson. The 15 is much smoother but at $99 a bottle a bit expensive for my less than refined palate. Did try a heavilly peated BenRiach and found it interesting and enjoyable on occasion but not a daily go to... Try to keep a bottle of Ben on hand for special occasions. Covid has put a damper on my liquor cabinet...
