I can't get it open, if you guys can open it, you have a free pour.

@kelly-red Kelly—when I was young, I did a lot of reading. When I got into college I stopped reading. 40 years later I decided to try to get back into reading, but wasn’t sure where to start. At the same time (a couple years ago), you mentioned the Prey series. So I started on book 1 and got hooked. Thanks for helping me get started again. I also now mix up the genres as I go. I’m on 12 now. Again—thanks.

Ditto for youth reading, then started taking group vacations (aka Gopher Road Trip Crew) and found I needed to "unplug" for a couple hours, started reading again. That seed grew into a plant. Although I will admit I am generally not a fan of fiction, I save that for movies. Sports, pop culture, organized crime, and music are what I read about.

if anyone is looking for a book or books… I have a three stall garage full of boxes and boxes and boxes of books. My wife finds school libraries or local libraries given away their books before they throw them away and she “saves” them. She sells majority of the books one by one online. And donates them back to used book stores. The main bookstore is a bookstore up in Duluth named Gaberial’s. Yesterday my wife and I drove up to Duluth for a day drive and dropped off over 30 boxes of books. The main volunteer told us the building they use is being torn down this summer and they have no idea what the future holds for them. We are hoping to drive up 1 or 2 more times to donate books.

Im so glad you like the Prey books! I’m now working my way through Alex Cross series and The Women’s Murder Club books, both by James Patterson. And a YA sci-fi series by Michael Grant. Imagine a modern day Lord of the Flies when everyone over 15 suddenly disappears and kids are left to survive on their own.@kelly-red Kelly—when I was young, I did a lot of reading.

Thanks, I’ll take a look.

I don't know what is worse...that the bartender can't open a bottle of scotch or that he "rewarded" you with a mediocre vintage. 😜
Given the bar that I'm almost certain he's talking about, it's probably the best whiskey they've got.Bartender handing over a bottle of Macallan 12:

As to opening the bottle, I have to admit, the new Macallan bottles are really annoying to open at times. Yes, it's a cork, but you absolutely have to twist to open as well the first time to disengage a lock at the bottom of the cap holding the cork.
B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?
And the Sigma Force series by James Rollins! Those are great.Thanks, I’ll take a look.

The bar was slammed, and she was the only bartender for some reason. And when I say she couldn't get it open, I mean this was a fresh bottle, and she couldn't get the tab-thing to peel off the plastic.
And yes, that is the best whiskey they have, and it's 3 fingers for $11. 😉

Damn right it did.
But, I admit, it was a tough tab-thingy. My buddy and I are blue collar, we don't have the fingernails to necessarily get it to start peeling.

Better of keeping it closed and drinking rail...still pretty sad she couldn't open it.
It’s my wife’s birthday today. It was here request to sell our hockey tickets for tonight and as a family to go serve at a Drive Thru Food Distribution. We boxed up 189 boxes of food and distributed the boxes to anyone in need. Only had to turn 7 vehicles away which we offered extra bags of bread, bagels or muffins.
