    @Acn- I've visited Barcelona 3 times (son lived there for 4 years) and the best I ever did was the Camp Nou tour.  Back then Messi was with the club and even with the stadium capacity at nearly 100k secondary tix prices for the couple of times there was a match were crazy.  Best of luck.

    Floor mats for the Subie. Car’s not here yet but getting closer to delivery. 


    I have these for my Outback and really like them. Just removed them all for cleaning last week. I was tired of having my Weathertechs curl inwards on me.

    That’s exactly what steered me away from weathertech. I have that problem with my Silverado

    What is the eta on your outback @ColtsFan
    Last week of October but I’m seeing a lot of people on Reddit talking about it taking a few weeks longer than expected. I ordered it in early August.

    I ordered a 4 runner, actually I put a deposit on one that was already on order for a dealer. It is supposed to be here last week in October. Originally promised for 4 weeks but if it gets here at the end of this month it will have been 6.

    Don't be. I see five licenses for (your) discretionary spending on that table. 
    No money left in the bank after those 5 boxes are paid for. LOL.

    Thanks!  I think that Messi being gone and the relatively disappointing start are definitely having an impact...I just looked and their website has regular priced tickets for the Clasico coming up this Sunday.  If there is availability for that, I'm guessing that there also will be for a match against a mid-table side.  

    Thanks for the restaurant rec JIC!

    @Acn - Better to be lucky than good right there.  I hope an opportunity to attend a match works out during your visit.

    I'm looking at this.  Any chance this is a rebadged BGE for Bud Light promotion?

    To me, there are too many departures from the BGE design for it to have been made by them. The rivets on the lower draft door. The hinges. The hardware. The handle. Plus, I wouldn’t bet on Anheuser-Busch ponying up to buy premium kamados when there are so many cheaper alternatives manufacturing a relatively simple product. If these were BGE, I’d bet BGE would want their brand recognized. Just my thoughts.

    For $160 who cares, it's unique. I'd buy that in a heart beat.

    @Acn

    I used to travel to Barcelona a bit - I have 2 pieces of advice.  It's a great city.  Food is fantastic, prices are good, and they live on a different schedule than the rest of the world. Show up for dinner at 10PM - you'll be first in the place.  Not even waitstaff will be there yet.

    1. That's not a 'glass of wine' price, that's the whole bottle.  I get caught by this fantastic mistake every time. Spanish wines are subsidized, you think you're getting a glass of red for you, and bubbles for the wife and two bottles show up and the night starts off like a bottle rocket.

    2. Unfortunately, pick pockets and purse snatching is fairly rampant.  You will see it, and it's easy to prevent.  Wallet in front pocket for guys and cross body purses for the wife, hands on zippers.  If you're just a little cautious you will avoid this and have a good trip.

    Any St. Louis folks, it's yours.  I can't justify over my medium.  I wouldn't bring camping, as I have too much other stuff to pack.

    My wife and I didn't know a lick of Spanish but that made it all the more interesting. I remember sitting down at a restaurant for lunch and looking over the menu. I couldn't tell you one word the menu said. (To be fair we did have my wife's best friend who was living there at the time with us but I didn't want any help when ordering.) I literally pointed to something on the menu not knowing what I ordered. 

    I can't recall what I ended up ordering but I remember being excited for it. I do remember finishing up the plate and being content with my meal. That was until a few minutes later my main meal comes out. (I again had no idea what I ordered and just assumed the first plate was my meal) So I finish off this second plate and I'm stuffed. Next thing you know dessert comes out. It was crazy! I don't think the meal was more than $9 US. 

    I also agree with @sumoconnell about the petty crime. Keep your phone in your pocket. Don't set it out on a table. Just be aware of your surroundings and you'll find yourself perfectly safe.

    The specs on that thing are kind of insane.  I'm not sure what you're planning to do with it, but if you're looking for small countries to invade, that's probably within reach.

    Didn't spring for the Max version? Don't really blame you at the price for the CPU. Enjoy your new -edit ...er MacBookPro and the MagSafe connector.

    Downloading’s not the hard part.  It’s the uploading without rotating that seems to be the challenge.
