I am still confused as to what would be worth buying. We always get HOT sake when we go to sushi, 2 or 3 times a month, but what is a GOOD brand? There is no way in hell that when you get it in a JAP steak house you are getting "good sake". I would welcome your recommendations.

The best sake I ever had was from a Japanese friend whose brother was the personal ski instructor to the emperor of Japan. This was in the early 80s. She gave me about a half gallon of it in a little wooden barrel. It was amazing. It was very dry but had a syrupy viscosity. I later found out it was something like $500. per little wooden barrel.

I really had no idea, she was so casual about it and uninterested in it. "I don't really care for it." was what she said.

This stuff was like syrup as well, must have been good. Haven't had any thing that good since and that was 1986.

Yeah, I could kick myself for not paying closer attention to the brand. I've never had the syrupy stuff since and my friend passed away a few years ago. She was in her 80's.

Ibz...I'm so making you're latest pic my desktop ;)
I offer taking you out for a few drinks, I don't have my own place yet to offer a place to stay yet :(, but when I do, know that you're invited!

oh mtp, youre making me blush.

Sorry, Merc, couldn't name a brand to buy. Go to a crazy-ass festival in some tiny little mountain hamlet where they give out free booze and blow up a ton of fireworks while standing underneath them. Usually with their wangs out.

Do NOT buy "One Cup" sake for 150 yen from a convenience store. It was bad even before the video.

It doesn't matter what you have down there Ib, I still want to put it in my mouth! ;-)

Even post op?

Having seen (and saved) his ass pics, I'm sure I can find some way to play.:D

This is so, so wrong. Ib still a babe

Why are there so many words in this picture thread?

Have you posted any pics in this thread? But I do agree we need more pics

I'd love to describe myself as a babe (or even babelicious or, if i dare, baberaham lincoln) but i'm certainly not too young to post incriminating photos of myself, and well, it would be silly to think that photos one posts online wouldn't end up saved on somebody's hard drive. while i might question his taste, i certainly won't question shel's right to it. if i were like, fifteen, that'd be one thing, but i'm an adult, and he can like - and, if he really wants to, save - what he likes within the realm of legality.

But Ib, we know your a big boy now, but I'll always remember you as the high schooler. That's the way I picture you in my mind
