These were favorites of mine I'm so glad they all got ported to PC. Stranger's Wrath HD is great. Munch's is still one of my favorite games. Definitely gonna get all those sweet steam achievements.

Re: Any watch nerds on Icrontic?
Acquired another watch last week:
This Waltham pocket watch was my grandfathers and appears date from ~1898.
Wound it and it actually runs (avg +2-3min/24 hours).
I feel I owe it a service but obviously it's of limited utility and keeps acceptable time anyway...

Re: Adventures in bourbon - Bottled in Bond
Finally got around to posting a review of this. I've had this bottle since late June thanks to @FettBacon who hand delivered it to me in Detroit during expo. This whiskey is so goddam good that I killed most of the bottle in a month and had to pump the brakes to enjoy it a little longer. It nails everything I love in a bourbon.
The taste is heavy on caramel, vanilla, and super oaky. The mouthfeel is full and oily, accompanied by a long lasting alcohol burn and spicy tongue. It's incredibly well balanced, and shows its age well across the palette. A splash of water really opens this bourbon up but honestly, it's not needed. Drink it straight and live the dream.
This is a ~$50 bottle of bourbon and let me tell you, it is worth it. If you're looking to splurge on an absolutely superb bourbon whiskey, this is the one to do it with.

The house I was in is intact. The place we bugged out of is intact and has power as it is a Senior Living facility. Both are in Naples.
