^ My newest purchase...
With more crap on the way lol
 
Just ordered this 10" long pair of tweezers last night for $4.89 with free shipping:

Should be good for grabbing little things such as annoying small plastic parts that have dropped into a printer(reassembling a professional printer can be annoying really).

Because I'm a tourist:

Hofbräuhaus 1 Liter Beer Stein

I have one, unfortunately not from the original brewery, but from the one conspicuously sitting in northern Kentucky.
 
Sold some bits 'n' pices on eBay recently and had a reasonable amount sitting in my PayPal account so decided to splurge on these from CK Modelcars:

Amazing diecasts! I love that stealth 787B :)

I bought these two plastic model kits
Peugeot 205

Honda Integra Type R

Ordered them just this morning. So now time to play the waiting game. :indiff:
Oh and please if anyone knows if a 1/24 plastic kit of a Ford RS200 exists, let me know! I'd pay for such a high price just for one!
 
Yup, I agree it's too steep of a price for what it offers. Amazing none of the good brands have a kit of that car, as far as I know.
 
And another model obtained, this one thanks to me listening to MGS2 music...

The Harrier fight was like my favorite boss fight in MGS2 lol...

Yeah, I read about the various different locations that they have and went, "lol, wut?" I had always thought that there was only the original Hofbräuhaus.

I was surprised they had one in Kentucky. Do you know why they put it there in particular? Also, does the Kentucky haus brew their own beer, or is it shipped from the Munich one?

Nice. That was also one of the first things that I did to my car after purchasing it.

Newport, KY is across the river from Cincinnati and Hofbräuhaus is a block from one of the bridges. Cincinnati has a large German population to the point that they even have their own Octoberfest celebration. Louisville, KY also has enough of a German population for there to be Germantown area.

And Hofbräuhaus does brew their own in-house, but on a much smaller scale. Theirs is only for use in the restaurant. They take that so seriously that they actually refused to let me buy a pack of bottles, despite having them for sale, because it was imported and shipping could affect the taste and so it would not be representative of their beer.

And I love the food. Good sauerkraut, wursts, and wiener schnitzel is hard to come by.

Arrived a few hours earlier than expected. I was sleeping, damnit!
The red color has a fantastic specular that's much more attractive in person. It's a pictures-don't-do-justice thing.


And I completely forgot that this came last week;

Herradura Anejo Tequila:

Surprisingly smooth.

And a stacker/destacker+ to amplify and split a single satellite feed to my Sky HD+ box so that it has a proper twin feed.

Luckily the house is wired with good quality shielded cable so it gives an excellent signal quality. 👍 All the other rooms currently only have the one feed.
