    I signed up for the NBC streaming thing in the hopes of being able to catch some Premiership games (I didn't), but looking through their free shit I ended watching the first 2 episodes of their Brave New World series. I was surprised at how good it is, at least the first two eps - the rest I'd have to pay to be able to watch and I'm not sure I want to do that. I have only vague memories of the book, and have been meaning to read it again for a while, maybe I'll do that soon.

  • LEAVE BEER ALONE

    BCN had a great craft beer scene while I was there, but the price comparison between local wines and imported beers wasn’t good, so it was more of a treat than the norm. In Quebec I want to cry when I see the price of Spanish wines. The restaurants here are criminal with their mark-ups.


    The first time I visited BCN, I was still living in NYC and on the first night we realized our notion of prices was totally ridiculous. We sat down for dinner at a restaurant and the waiter asked what we were going to drink, so my girlfriend at the time and I looked at the wine list and each pointed at one. The waiter was like, "you're each going to have a bottle??" We had just assumed based on the price (something like 8 euros) that it was by the glass, since that was low for a glass of wine in a restaurant in New York. A lot of wine was had during that trip. Beer not so much, I never ran into any craft brews there and there was no point in having Estrella Damm when the wine was so cheap and good.

    I only know the Unibroue stuff from Quebec but I ride hard for those. Had a Fin du Monde right when the pandemic kicked off.
