  1. Well, Vonn crashed out in SL, Mancuso did not even ski it. A great Olympics for the US Ski team (best ever), started way high and ended a bit low. Men's SL is the only event left.
  2. Never been to Tips Up, I'll have to check that one out next time I am in E'ville.
  3. Mayock rated Bulagua in his top 5 players overall. I REALLY hope we get Bulagua, he's like Jake Long and we would be set at LT for a decade.
  4. I know that place well. More bar than restaurant. E'ville could have used a good restaurant. Outside of EBC, I think the only "good food" type place is Dina's (which is very good, BTW). Dina's Website
  5. Did your Dad have a restaurant in E'ville? Which one?
  6. Still is. Whiteface and Mad River Glen are the two best ski areas on the East Coast, IMHO.
  7. I worked in the bar/resturant industry for about a decade and this is not necessarily true. It really depends on the wine. A couple of glasses or a standard-type bottle (under $100), you expect the tip to reflect the whole bill. If the customer is ordering $300-$400+ bottle of wine, I would not expect my tip to reflect the wine.
  8. Dance a jig.
  9. In no particular order besides spending time with my wife & kids... Ski, Golf, Sail, Trading the Market Occasionally Scuba dive and play softball/baseball (the softball/baseball thing used to be much bigger, then the whole team started having kids and other responsibilities). I also enjoy travelling at least 2-3xs per year. I'd like to add flying a plane to the list.
  10. Sorry dude, its 34, from Salt Lake City.
  11. Thank George Steinbrenner. http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/olympics/th...pVjGXL1k0USMFhP
  12. Hannah was awfully miscast in the first one, but she was one of the hottest things going at the time. I read she did not really want the role. I agree, there will be too much focus on the daughter and Shia LeBeouf. I will see it just for the Geckko scenes, but I doubt we are looking at Godfather Part II here. Gecko is a true folk hero and I hope they don't mess with him, although the trailer looks promising.
  13. What round do you project Dan Williams to be drafted?
  14. I LOVED the original, one of my all time favoritie movies. I was apprehensive about a sequal. And the trailer scenes with Shia Lebeouf/Carey Mulligan do nothing to quell my apprehension. But damn, its good to see Michael Douglas as Gordon Geckko again! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZL7gF86tBo...layer_embedded#
  15. The greatest distillery in the world right there.
  16. I'd be suing for malicious prosecution there. That was a travesty.
  17. True and Doug Coombs is awesome, but this is a lot of fun as well and more accessible to more people. Anyway, I doubt Doug can ski at the speed Lindsey did last night.
  18. She killed it! Monster run, gotta be the gold.
  19. Check out this exceedingly well done rap video that is actually a principled economics debate (shot partially at a friend's restaurant in lower Manhattan). Really brilliant work, IMHO.
  20. And that stud QB will be on IR in 3 weeks if Bell and other motley crew of LTs are protecting his blind side again. I don't disagree with the stud QB argument, but we need a LT pretty bad as well after passing on Oher last year for Maybin. If we had Oher, I'd be right with you in clamoring for the QB.
  21. I've sold 3 apartments on Craigslist. Saved a ton of money because no broker's fee.
  22. I have to say, I love the Winter Olympics far more than the Summer Olympics. Maybe growing up in Buffalo, skiing, skating, hockey etc. while growing up, I just relate more. It just feels right, far more understated than the summer variety.
  23. Thanks. I was looking for a course to play before flying out. I'll take that recommendation.
  24. We're doing Myrtle this year for the second time because the first was so much fun. We're headed down the weekend of 3/20. Thanx for the recommendations the first time. Actually flying into Wilmington NC and renting a car because the flight was direct and much cheaper than Spirit Air. Its about 80 miles, so we'll see if it was worth it.
