Re: Off Topic VIII
i almost never buy a new system when it first comes out.
costs too much and there are still plenty of games from the pervious system to play.

Thats coming out later this year.
The new Xbox, Scorpio, next holiday 2017.
Sony will likely respond tonight with the PS4.5
From what I'm reading, it's not as much a new system as it is another expansion on the One. Hopefully that's correct because I'd be pissed if I only got two years out of the One.

I read a little while ago that all 3 systems would play same games.

Yeah, that's good. I'm perfectly fine with the One I have so I probably won't give this a second thought.

Re: Off Topic VIII
So the dominant gas station brand down here is Tom Thumb. Never heard of them til we moved down. One store right down the road has its own liquor store for some reason, so naturally I had to stop in and check The place out
I'm walking around and in the back corner they have this area called "The Growler Station" where they have a dozen or so local and/or craft brews on tap that you can put in a beer brown colored 64oz insulated Klean Kanteen bottle with a big "BREW" logo on it.
I'm interested. I'm not really a derpy craft beer drinking, ironic beard having kind of guy, but I'll take a cool bottle any day.
I taste some of them and decide to get the Green Man ESB. After a short convo, turns out it's brewed in Asheville. Pretty cool and a damn good beer IMO.
Even cooler? When I empty this bottle, I can take the bad boy back and get it refilled with any of their rotating tap for anywhere between 9-17 bucks. And the cost goes towards a discount on gas.
Cool bottle, solid beer, discounted gas.
As the great Sriram Hathwar once said, "you gotta enjoy the little things"

This is post number 3000 for me. I'm not as active as years past (just too busy), but still love the Hornets!
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Don't really know where to post this, I didn't see an Adam Morrison thread in the index. Decent read if you want to see what Adam Morrison's been up to

Bill Simmons interviewing Charles Barkely, makes me want to drink bleach. Barkley is such a moron and Simmons is still Simmons. Why am I watching this?

I was one of the few happy with the pick. I really wanted him to work out. Shame it just couldn't. I still remember that 2nd half against Minnesota in his rookie year, where he tore the Wolves up and won the game
I don't support domestic violence. Thanks Miles

Finally got a chance to took my wife on a short hike and went for wild fishing
It was really nice to get out into nature to watch the sunset, see the scent of the forest, and catch some fish.
