Now comes the 35 days of waiting. We've tried longer and shorter, 35 seems 'right' in this setup imho. So raise a glass and let's say thanks to my amazing Muse for this absolutely incredible dry-aging fridge.

Steven, I am SO sorry…. And so is Nick. You see, he made a mistake… that Daytona is actually mine. Listen friend, don’t be too upset; I’ll send you lots of pictures

LOL Paul... But for a moment I felt you'd want to trade for some incredible mechanical chiming desk clock you have.

You tease!

Congrats! As someone who is on the waiting list at that store for that watch, I’m going to look at the positive side and say “one less person in front of me!”
