Inspired by Duggeh, I decided to get out the Cynar bottle. Bensonhurst 1¾ oz rye whiskey ⅔ oz dry vermouth 1 bar-spoon maraschino 1 bar-spoon Cynar Stir over ice then strain in to a cocktail glass. Garnish with a large twist of orange zest.

A Negroni is pretty close to a Margarita. They both have 3 ingredients. You can make them both with equal ratios (although I wouldn't recommend doing that with a `rita). So I say go for it!

Margarita

Cool! I was having trouble deciding between the black and grey. They both are nice looking. I cannot wait to try mine now! The Vibram are good for the gym but I cannot wear mine for more than a couple of hours as they start to bother my toes.

I remember the SUV wreck from the Pilot but don't really remember it being memorable. Maybe it is later in the Season (I have only watched episodes 1-4).

It is true but it still makes me sad. I don't think they are going to become a competetive team before he becomes a free agent. I am glad to see that Pence will get a chance to play on a team that has a very good chance at the WS.

Will do. I was not aware of the Merrel barefoot but just looked at them and I like the look of the NB/Vibram better but I haven't seen either in person. I am guessing you are right about the sizing. I have a pair of NB W100 which look pretty similar to the new NB/Vibram W10 and I wear a 6.5 in them. Most of my other tennis shoes (North Face, Montrail, Converse) are a size 6. For reference, I am between a 36 or 37 in the Vibram 5 finger (the 36 are too snug and the 37 too loose in the toes).

I got pissed at Mathematica because of the way they do licensing so I stopped using it completely. I would use Mathematica every so often and pretty much ever time I wanted to use it, the program would tell me a needed to get a new license.... Also, Sage is faster than Mathematica. As for MAGMA vs Sage, I am sure that MAGMA does things that Sage doesn't but so far isn't anything I need to do. Even though Rice has a license for MAGMA at this time, I would rather not be tied to a software program that is so costly. (Sage was developed as an open source alternative to MAGMA.)

This is also happening to me. When I reply, it says "saving post" indefinitely but never updates. If I refresh the page, it updates, otherwise it seems like nothing has been updated. Edit: It seemed to work ok this time. Maybe it was just my internet connection earlier, don't know.

Moar Fringe.

Just learned that Pence was traded to the Phillies. :supersad: I guess the Astros are competing for the worst team in modern baseball history.

So did I and I like it. Definitely need the essential oils from the lemon peel. Don't know but it sounds good.

No goat cheese and aged sharp cheddar?

Sweet, Al! You are a good daughter Vicki, sucks about the flight price increase though. Nice!!!

I pretty much only use Sage nowadays and I can run it on our server so that it not so much of a problem.

Seems like we have a little double post going on with the new update.

Back in the lab making mini margaritas (it's a tough job but someone.... oh well, you know the saying): #1 1 oz Casa Noble Anejo tequila 3/8 oz Clement Creole Shrubb orange liquor 1/4 oz lime juice #2 1 oz Don Julio Anejo tequila 3/8 oz Clement Creole Shrubb orange liquor 1/4 oz lime juice They are both awesome but I slightly prefer the ultra smooth Don Julio over the Casa Noble with the extra bite. Others may prefer the CN though.

I downloaded Lion and made a bootable DVD copy of it but I am not sure I want to install it yet.

Thanks Dan.

I am in!

I just tried it again and now they work. Please ignore my other message. I will still be interested to know if there is a way to have all mail downloaded except SPAM messages in Apple Mail.

Looking great so far. I like the different new content options.

OK, well I suppose 3 27" displays is a little too much real estate anyway. Another question: For those of you who use gmail on Mac OS X Chrome, do the keyboard shortcuts for gmail work for you? They work on Firefox but not Chrome which seems kinda silly. I have been moving away from using Apple Mail to using web-based gmail since I want some decent search capabilities (which seem to be limited in Apple Mail if you don't download messages to your harddrive) and not have to download my SPAM mail to all of my computers (which is about 9000-10000 messages a month). I am tired of clicking on individual messages to read, select or delete them (and would prefer to use Chrome instead of FF or Safari). If this won't work, is there a way to set up gmail/imap on Apple mail so that it downloads all messages except SPAM?

Sure they're not. :wink: :wink:

Mini gin and Vesper tastings! Fitz: Glad to hear that you are leaning quickly the way of the cocktail! I am embarrassed to say that sometimes I leave out the lemon or orange twist (mostly because I don't have it at the house).
