3 weeks in a row

This may be considered a winning streak. I have posted 3 weeks in a row!

What I learned since last week -

1. Mason's Steak house in Quincy is pretty good.

2. Happy Gilmore 2 was a complete waste of my time - solid D- of a movie.

3. I attempted to make chocolate chip cookies for my first time. I may have used too much sea salt but overall B.

4. It should be a crime to have a 70th birthday party on a Sunday night.

5. If its this hot and humid up here all summer long why haven't we moved south yet?

6. SHHHHH I think Chris Leaden recently had the Covid, I had no clue that was still a thing.

7. I have never liked mushrooms but recently had some smoked wood fired ones and let me tell you...slice of heaven. 

8. It is official everyone is going to Darius Rucker. Hell Chrissy is going to a preconcert cookout before.

9. TSA precheck registration is quick and easy. Not sure why more people don't do it.

10. Boats and drinking on docks are just not for me.

11. One of the more frustrating parts of being and adult is always trying to plan your weekly dinners.

12. High Tide at Nantasket Flatts has BBQ beef ribs on Saturdays only and let me tell you they are bomb as fuck.

Stop the presses

After almost 2 years I finally spoke to Jason Foley. He is alive, not going to Vegas but he is alive.

This is what I learned this weekend:

1. I witnessed someone who was probably 23 try to sign their tab in cursive and I think a bit of my mind melted. As a guy whose name begins with a D it was the wildest configuration of trying to make it look like a D ever.

2. How have people never been to Bay Point?

3. Nothing worse than a $4500 emergency vet bill, right Kevin?

4. Mixing alcohol with diet soda gets you more drunk than mixing with regular soda - captain and diets for everyone.

5. Is everyone going to Darius Rucker but me?

6. Wait bars are fighting back against putting Happy Hour on the ballot.

7.  I think that Marvel movies are done but god damn it I am looking forward to Fantastic Four.

8. Vegas is booked and it is looking like there may be a spot open in the fantasy league.

9. Pats Training camp kicks off today. What is the over/under on wins?

10. Trying to get a quote to redo a kitchen has been harder than anything in the effing world.

Summah Summah Time

Its been a minute between working crazy hours, this insane heat of this summer and well ya know vacation and benders.

This is what I learned while away(I guess for over a fucking month):

1. People either love or don't care for Aruba. There does not seem to be a middle ground.

2. Sorry but the Sox band wagon is full at this time.

3. Sean Riccio is no where to be found. Text the dude and he's in another state/fucking country.

4. Vegas is about a month away. Feel free to show up August 21-25th. I may or may not personally spontaneously combust while out there.

5. Congrats to Mike Foley on his first course championship in 31 years! You see him on the streets he owes you a club championship beer. I am going to bronze mine.

6. Head on a swivel people Lyme Disease is high this year. Ticks are not your friends.

7. Congrats to Julie Nickerson and her hubby on buying their new home.

8. Lets hope Julian and the rest of Hingham baseball team can keep their winning streak going this weekend...down in Delaware, where they play in a regional tournament after winning their state division. One step closer to Williamsport.

9. Dierks Bentley is a very nice down home dude. He has a new bourbon coming out Row 94. I thought it was pretty smooth when he let us sample it.

10. Quincy Porchfest was a hit. I mean walking around drinking beers on the street and listening to bands is and always has been my jam.

11. Man Chris Leaden may have officially become a betting MUSH. Like a 100% fade.

12. Fuck all this Dubai chocolate everything. 

13. Milwaukee is a pretty good city. I would love to go back for a Celtics/Bucks game.

14. The Miller Brewery/Miller Valley is a huge area. I loved the tour and the history 10/10.

15. I have eaten at some good places at Encore but Seamark has been my favorite so far.

16. Trying to get to the Georgia vs Alabama game in September.

17. I have said that I am not a huge fan of remakes but the new Running man looks awesome.

18. Fuck Tommy Bahama beach chairs. I had one for 10 years and it fucked (like on the 1st date sex) and it eventually broke so I replaced it end of last summer. The new one didn't even last me half this summer.

19. The Patriots kick off training camp is less than a week away. (Maybe you Sox band wagoneers can hit the Pats up early).

20. If you do ever make it out to Milwaukee make sure you go to the Harley Davidson museum. Lots of cool ass shit. Just don't mention to the locals that Harleys aren't made in America anymore. They do not like that.

21. I love random bars that have slot machines. 

22. I will have you know that I was less than 1 mile from a casino and never stepped inside.  Small victory.

23. Watch out world Chrissy is investing lots and lots into cards. Just don't ask him about his Wander Franco's (sore subject).

24. Would you prefer to go away for Thanksgiving or the week after Christmas?

25. I will say that Superman is a very comic booky movie. Like it feels like you picked up a comic and the action starts right away and there is so much to focus on.
