Rabbit Food?

Beef stew. Basically the same as my pot roast, with a few small differences. No shallots, but leaks instead. And 1/2 cup of brandy in the sauce. Delicious!

As a follow up. We did have a great talk. He was completely unaware of how offensive I took it. He also quoted me back to me, when I told him that gay men love gay jokes more than anyone. After I explained my experience with that hellish disease he actually started tearing up and apologized profusely. He really had no idea. He even gave me a hug, which cemented that he didn't mean to offend me in any way. I'm too sensitive about that subject, I'm certain. But all is well.

Cheers Jeff - Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Jeff!

Godspeed, Greg... I recall hearing Cake for the first time in '97 in a bar in Jakarta, where we lived for 18 months for a "temporary" assignment. Sooooo good. This one hits home. HS

Happy Birthday!

Greg Brown, Co-Founder of Cake and Writer of 'The Distance,' Passes Away. Pretty much the perfect pop song in my jaded opinion.

Where the hell are you Tyler? Are you still in Israel/Palestine?

Tonight, in the dark of West Marin. https://poeticruckus.org/ And their latest release, on vinyl, no less.

Just beautiful. Is there any volcano Mjölnir Audio cannot climb?

I’m a big DSD fan. Lots of great recordings, though they are always getting harder to find outside of sketchy Russian trackers. I’ve enjoyed my RME DAC for years, but the old “is it good enough?” brainworm has made its way back to me. Anyone have any really stupendous DACs they want to recommend? Bonus points for a good volume control and native DSD over USB or IIS.

Oh Steve, I hope you had a chance to help this young man. I think a conversation with a man he looks up to would do him a world of good. It is hard for some young men to socially mature, even when they have a good example to reference. It sounds like he may have to work harder than many to find that example. He made an off-color joke to the wrong crowd at the wrong time. Who among us hasn’t, right? I would bet he feels bad but has nowhere to put those feelings. Shame is one of the real ugly, scary ones we would all rather hide. Obviously this isn’t your fault or your doing, but I feel like this is an opportunity to selflessly put a little compassion in the world. Sorry it had to be you, buddy, but that’s the price you pay for caring about people.

So sorry, Peter. RIP Skye.

Happy Birthday!

I still got Kikik, and she's really stepping up. She understands the assignment.
