Icon6 Z-Sub (Yenning) and InVision (Mike) - thanks fellas!

Yesterday my good friend Mike (InVision) came to see me from Florida at my shop. This is his 3rd visit here, and it's always a pleasure. We shoot the s**t about watches, women, life in general.... I always look forward to his visits, he's an awesome dude, plus he always brings cool goodies

So he brings a brown bag. In it, a sweet bottle of Russian Standard Vodka - excellent choice, might I add. So I thank him. He goes - 'Don't thank me, it's not from me...' long story short, Yenning (whom I have never met in person, just communicated with via PM's and phone) found out that Mike was coming to see me and decided to get me this bottle. Just out of being nice, nothing else. Ok, I'm done gushing, just got to say that this place kicks ass, thanks Mike and Yenning!

BTW - Mike and I broke the seal on the bottle yesterday, and boy, it is smooth....

Thanks to Mike (InVision)

You mean Mike came to town and no one told me.

Oh well, I've been in Louisville all week anyway.

Dan, We debated calling you but we could not find any GM 150. Greg, that was the best vodka i have had.

Some time we need to have a all hands on deck TRF G2G. Destin fla would be a great place. Maybe for my retirement in 2013. MY TREAT !!

Mike

If you were here, we'd need a MUCH bigger bottle

I spoke to him about you - he didn't realize how close we were to the KY border (20 miles). Next time we will organize better, for sure!
