Just took a little trip to frye’s electronics. I went for some more RAM for my work computer (yay), but I came back with so much more.

I plopped down 19 big ones for this little baby:

It’s a USB powered drink cooler. Put any beverage on that metal blue plate and it will keep it at a brisk 45degrees.

Pretty sweet. I’ve been eying it for a little over a year now, and just finally decided to go for it since they had an open box one that was a whole dollar off.

Now I can go home, and if I feel so inclined, pop open a bottle of Harp or Bass, put it down on this bad boy, and drink it over the period of an hour or so during respawns whilst I enjoy a bit of CS:S. Always before my beer would get warm about half way through.

Awesomeness.

Going to start a new series: Drinks.

Starting with a wine by “Taylor” (new york). It’s their Port, of unspecified year (wha???). We bought it at Meijer for like $5.

Julie and I are looking for a good port. This is not a good port. I’d give it 2.5 out of 5, if paired with something sweet/desert like. Otherwise it get’s like a 1.5 (maybe 2) if drank on it’s own. My parents had an awesome brown county winery port that I would give a 4.5 of 5 that we partook of last weekend.

Anyone have any recommendations on a port? Or even just a “great” wine we should try next?
