LYTT Hard Peach Tea 12% Review
Ok, so you've tried the Four Loko and it tasted like kerosene. You tried the high-gravity beers and they got boring. This right here is dangerous. No hard bite, no off putting aftertaste. This shot will get you crunked up right. 12 percent and less than 3 bones for a 24oz. Just like drinking sweet grandmammas sweet peach iced tea. With extra sugar. Would recommend, but proceed with caution.

Jack Daniel's Southern Peach
At 4.8% ABV, it's about the same as weak beer. But that makes for some easy drinking. Doesn't even have a hint that it might be an adult beverage. More like a peach sweet tea or something.
A tad on the expensive side at around $8.99 for a six pack. But there's more expensive craft beers out there that are probably shittier tasting. And I'm sure it might be cheaper elsewhere if you shop around.
The downsides are that it's a little too sweet but that's subjective for each person. And that you could probably drink too many of them before you realized how much you had, again, subjective.

Pendoo X8 Android TV Box
First thing that caught my attention is just how small this thing is. My last Android TV box was a Nexus Player, and this thing is way smaller. Like the size of a deck of cards. Not really a bad thing, but it's like you could lose it easily in a nest of cables.
All the usual suspects come preinstalled, Kodi, YouTube, Netflix. Signing into stuff is a pain in the ass with the on screen keyboard. I'd recommend adding a bluetooth keyboard if you don't want to throw the tiny clicky remote at the wall. There's an app to use your phone as a remote, but I'm sure it's some shady shit you gotta install on your phone so no thanks for now.

Sparks Blackberry
Two bucks for two of them. 16oz can. 8% alcohol. Less bite than Loko. Also less booze. It's ok.
Best WiFi in public Charlotte
So who has the best wifi in free public Charlotte? Hang on to your wireless dongles for this one. In my experience it's been Dilworth Coffee, the original one on East Blvd.
Why? Because there's no password/login crap like at Caribou or Starbucks, instant connect. Secondly, it's un-throttled, uncensored. I was able to pull 1.5MB/sec downloads from What.CD with no problem. Other places won't even let you go to RapidShare for a legit file and throttle your shit to 70kb/sec.
That said, their parking lot, seating and coffee kinda suck. You give, you take.
