    so, this Harper extension thing is real. How do you guys feel about it? If I were phillies brass, I’d say “can we maybe discuss this four years from now?”

    Yeah pretty ridiculous and needlessly distracting. I thought he was already set to finish his career here.

    I can't believe I'm missing Beach House at Johnny Brenda's tonight. Stupid 6:00 work meeting. Oh well, probably wouldn't have gotten tixx anyway.

    It was a great setlist - all their old songs they never play. Argh.

    Who won?  

    I don't think I can really pick one, but I do go to Varallo significantly more often than Termini, but also somewhat treat it as a coffee shop

    The Termini tin has more variety but I think the Varallo has better quality, and I have always preferred Varallo.

    So what should we talk about? Oh yeah, Chobani bought La Colombe. I guess you'll have like 2" of empty space at the top of the cup of coffee henceforth. Or, as they say, "room for toppings."

    I didn't realize the Chobani guy was the big investor in La Colombe.
    Seems like partnering with KDP could be a good move.

    I am pleased to announce Tired Hands now sells sixtels of their beers. Apparently they've been doing this for about six months now. Picked  up Alien Church for the ol' kegerator this afternoon. Giddy the fuck up.

    I miss having a kegorator.  Don't drink enough beer to have one, now.

    Went to the Christmas Village this evening with the family.  Not nearly as crowded as when we go on weekends, much better.  Always like that spot.
    Was going to go to the one in FDR Park this year but they rip you all around for pricing.  Anyone checked that place out?

    had to google a “sixtel.” good little size….(55) 12 oz beers, but I’m sure our juggler drinks pints, like a real man. if I may ask, what’s a sixtel of good beer cost?
