Plenty of Cigar City enthusiasts. I like Jai Alai, Maduro, and Hunahpu.

I've had Jai Alai and the Maduro. Don't think this spot has Hunahpu but this lager isn't bad. Best thing to come out of Florida in some time

They're definitely the best in Florida, IMO. Funky Buddha isn't bad either.

Narcos is great. Also Jai Alai is great if it is fresh. Jai Alai drops off a cliff after a month. You guys need to hit up some Creature Comforts from Athens, Ga. Tropicalia is amazing, so is Automatic (their APA), and they're about to can Koko Buni, their Coconut Chocolate Porter which is heavenly. Creature Comforts is the best brewery in the Southeast right now.

Fellow Cigar City enthusiast checking in.

And heading to Athens after the Atlanta forum today. I'm seeing Creature Comforts is open to 8, now that's enticing.

I mess with the bikes a bit. Currently working on a 1979 Honda cx500 cafe racer project. Already Removed about 50 lbs. of unnecessary plastic, chrome, and accessories (who needs gauges?) to improve handling and give it a more old school look. Also gave it a Homemade solo seatpan that I upholstered myself+ switched the original bars for a set of modern clip-ons to give it a more aggressive lean.

Last thing I'm doing before I close shop for the winter is the exhaust. Plan is to Remove the original cross pope and mufflers to put on upswept straight pipes with removable baffles. End result should be similar to the wrenchmonkeys cx500 but less polished.

Once summer comes, I'll throw on the finishing touches and start working on the cigar and bourbon =)

This is why I want a garage so bad. I use to have a 1970 Chevy Nova, and I would tinker with it all the tame back in high school. Had to sell it when I went off to school and lack of garage has kept me from ever getting a project again. I have a 2002 Harley Sportster I ride, but I can only do basic stuff like oil changes and what not in the parking lot. Everything else I have to take it to the shop. Great bike though. I think I will take it out for a ride this weekend. Beautiful in Tennessee this time of year.

I'm considering getting a Harley. I'm finding myself getting out of the sport bike phase, although I love my Ducati 998. I was thinking about a street softtail.

I'm sitting here enjoying a glass of Eagle Rare and feeling gentlemanly. Cheers.

Where do you gentlemen believe yourselves to be attending?

Mine: Michigan, Northwestern, Cornell, Georgetown, WUSTL

Somewhere out of my present state is all I'm certain about at this point.

Yeah, I wouldn't attend any of those schools either. I'd love to attend Northwestern, although at this present moment, I'm about 50/50. I think the February LSAT is in my cards.

You considering WUSTL much? I don't know how I feel about them. On the one hand $$$$$$$ on the other jobs

Depending on how February goes, yes and no. I want to practice in Chicago, so that's somewhat of an advantage. Also too, WUSTL is known for grade inflation, and many TLSers have been able to transfer to T14 after 1L. The cost of living doesn't really affect me too much, yet that's a benefit. STL overall as a city....ehhhhh

But if you already have t14 you don't need to risk trying to transfer to one. I feel like any t14 would give you a better shot in Chicago. Cost of living and big scholarships are the only real plus I see, but that is a pretty big factor. Going to school for almost free is very tempting.

For sure. I'm not applying for aid, yet to have the money that was set aside for that purpose to get spent on other things (condo/new car/invest) would be so money.

Creature Comforts is delicious. Athena changed the way I view beer. Also a big Terrapin fan, also out of Athens. Their new blood orange IPA is reeeeeeally good
