Well, I guess we can finally write off NOMA and RenΓ© Redzepi.

Jeff Bridges and is wife Susan are putting the Wideluxx mechanical panoramic camera back into production. As DPReviewβs Abby Ferguson puts it, the video of them unboxing and trying the first specimens is βpure joyβ.

I have never subscribed to a music streaming service (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) and probably never will. I value my favorite artists more than that. I buy recordsβdirect when possibleβwhich still isnβt very profitable for most musicians, but itβs something.
Our neighbors out back are experiencing a close encounter of the first kind in their great room. #oligarchy #nouveauriche #badtaste
Fascinating! Park Ave Liquors definitely needed a kick in the pants.
Grateful for the occasional nice surprise.
Silence is underrated.

There are at least a few of us whoβve never been charmed.
Get 31 makes a great βcleanβ Stinger. My old bottle lost its mojo and I dumped it. Unsure where to procure more. As for brackishness with Branca Mentaβsipping one *as I write this*βI have zero complaints. Freaking delicious. (VSOP, 3:1, as you say)
Amusing Bartholdi tangent I came across: hotel guests on the hotelβs proto-sightseeing bus. I suspect it was an electric vehicle, with batteries in that box between the wheels. Havenβt yet identified the church in the background.
I make Stingers several times a year. I use Branca Menta, because it has become obvious to me that anything crΓ¨me de menthe can do, Branca Menta can do better. (Except turn your drink green, I donβt get hung up on that.)
For me, definitely Paul Harrington and his Cocktail Time thing for HotWired.
New recipe for February now live for Total Tiki Online and Total Tiki (app) customers!
Amateurs. Try driving in the Dominican Republic.
I have farted around all day and Iβm feeling ok with that.

My parents kept (in a basement closet) a wedding present of a giant cluster of oversized plastic purple grapes for fifty years just in case. Gifters now deceased, gift now gone to the landfill. Perhaps a new category of tiki mug: single-use/disposable?
Iβm about to fire up some black beans from Chiapas, but Iβll be using an unsexy Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker, not a sexy ceramic bean pot.
I eventually realized that there are basically three kinds of tiki mugs: classic designs, mugs that carry some sentimental attachment, and crap. 99.9% of them are crap. Some crap is better than other crap, but itβs still crap and you donβt need to own it.
About a year into my switch from gas to induction, and I would not voluntarily go back. I might, however, upgrade my cooktop within a few years.
It should be obvious to anyone now that Zuckerberg had one βgood ideaβ, and it made him very rich, but he has no more such ideas, and he and his company are no longer in the public interest, if they ever were.
Stalin allegedly loved pickles, too, but I will not permit him to ruin them for me.
Thereβs not much cool about the Miami airport, but they do have Cuban food and surprisingly tasteful terrazzo floors.
All of this, including at least sixty (60) surveillance cameras, just to avoid employing a few attendants.
Your overlords find your lack of enthusiasm for habitually repurchasing costly personal technologyβ¦Β disappointing.
