I'm fairly certain he just gave her Kit-Kats.
Why is it called the Vic Viper/Warp Rattler? Because the Options trail behind it in a serpent-like fashion, and the iconic front fins are designed to invoke the image of a snake's fangs.

You realize statistically once you have the second one... uh... you won't be getting any more cabs?
You got it brother!
When did you move to Texas? I assume there was a job waiting for you in Bedford? Very little exposure to that area, but let's just say if I see that bitch again it won't be pretty.

This thing is really great, and especially when you consider that it was only like $12 (including shipping). It feels exactly like a real Jap Saturn controller. I can't believe the quality of this thing. I've bought other USB gamepads for about this price that were absolute shit.

Where did you get them? Seller?

Definitely did not! Good to know Hank doesn't just drink Bud or any of that bullshit.

Personally, I'm on whiskey now, and I'll be fucked if it's not an expensive "hobby".

They have been in Missouri for a long time. In fact, so long that it's common grocery store fare now.

Ahhhh - lovely. This is my standby, when no cask strength Lagavulin is around. :mrgreen: When I worked at a bike shop in the South Loop of Chicago, there was a fancy as hell liquor store around the corner and I use to do work for bottles of good single malt. Got turned onto a lot of good stuff: Ardbeg, Bowmore, Laphroig, Balvenie (Double Cask), Oban, etc. Laphroig was the first Islay I tasted and it was love at first sip.

Cross posting this from NeoGAF.

Look what just came in. All in great condition, and only about $20-30 USD a piece. Please excuse my crappy picture taking.

Get on that shit.

(Not much to post about really other than pseudo-intellectual ramblings about the obviously superior smokey, peaty, and almost medicinal- not to mention tarry, charred oak-like character of Islay scotches as opposed to the more flowery\honey\wine-barrel flavor of the Highlands... :) )

Just send me a link.....heh!

We obviously have similar taste in whiskys...among other things...
Ardbeg and Laphraoig are especially my faves...Bowmore was a nice surprise - a GREAT whisky for it's low price...usually the 10yr is $20-$25 here in STL...unless you're at an expensive wine merchant or some shit.

Once at a local big chain joint I found an 18 year Lagavulin mis-priced at...get this....$13.49! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Dude.

Maybe I'll bring a *small* nip for us late in the evening at Bob's meet....hmmmm

Now, to get back on topic....

Indeed it is. Pretty fun game, I find it to be very underrated. A tad frustrating at times though not detrimental from the overall experience in my opinion.
