I wonder what Scott's drinking right now?

Ah, forgot he was on vacation this week.  I liked his plan of everyone chipping in in advance for all the booze.  Didn't like the unique drink recipe each day since that'd require effort.  Liked that the 'bid' on the leftover booze to bring back home.

Nice offerings for AJF fans on CI for the week.  Wish they would have thrown in some New Worlds.

I'm definitely considering a bundle purchase from Atlantic.  Maybe a split with ol' Dan.
Joe, what's the price with VIP ?

I only have a 'direct' account now and not VIP, but my discounts are showing anywhere from $20-$25 off the regular price.  Bundle of 21 robustos are $77.95.
That a good price.
$28 bucks off the CI price, $42 off of MSRP

The whole thing sounds like fun to me.  But I'll settle for a couple of brews on the couch watching tv with the Mrs after the kiddies go to bed.

A little complicated, but otherwise you are always at the mercy of a couple of moochers.  Cooking is the same thing...unless you assign cooking days, the same people do all the work and the same one sit around drinking and complaining about when dinner will be ready.

Never been big on the big family or big group vacation.  One or two people always get stuck with the bulk of the logistics, give up much of their vacation and get nothing but complaining in return from all the armchair QB's...

Would be nice if I could've gotten any of that from my current employer but it'd be quite obvious that I'd leave as soon as I got a job after graduating.  Gotta keep the whole thing on the down-low at work.  Just adds to the stress of it all, haha.  Whatever... all be over in a year or so.  Not much time at all in the grand scheme of things, only makes me wish I would've done it a few years ago instead.

Luckily a very small and not particularly tight family.

I hear ya.  It's very political around here.  My colleague just finished his MBA and the company wouldn't pay for it because our previous manager (one of the many) is a dick and wouldn't approve it.  Other managers would have had no problem doing so.  As far as, "I should have done this years ago", I have to stop thinking that way.  We can only control what goes on going forward.

True.. and deep, haha.  My point being, don't wait another 3-4 years and still want to go back.  Just do it.
