Did you see Jay and/or his Two Centz?

Heh, I got you. https://www.discogs.com/release/7077621-Clipse-Lord-Willin See some for around 67, but have found used for around 50-55 without looking too hard. It's totally worth that, IMO.

Nice! I approve of your taste in Virginia-based "former" cocaine dealing rapping duos. Also, do you know about this? 7" 45 box set of Lord Willin'. Only 1000 copies made. I linked it to my buddy who turned me on to Clipse from like, day 1, and he wound up buying it, not realizing that I sent him the link I was going to buy it from. I got it elsewhere, but glad it wasn't as much as the ebay listing https://www.ebay.com/itm/276301100974?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&google_free_listing_action=view_item&gQT=1 Also, can you imagine dropping this 45 whenever you want? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLhu9gosH0D/

LOVE this group, and they're finally back together after a decade and change break. They dropped a brilliant Tiny Desk Concert; I may need to watch it again.

DTS gonna be EPIC next spring!

Part 2 just dropped: Part 1, if you don't know it:

Lewis gonna send it in the rain, if his team let's him. Maybe Kimi will take out Max again to make sure he gets out of his contract.

I used to hate him with begrudging respect for his skill, which is immense. Now I can see how good of a step-dad he is (respect), prolly gonna be a good dad (see above,) and most importantly, he has a miniature dachshund named Nino. His dog is definitely superior to him in every way other than driving, but now I can just dislike him whilst rooting against him and Red Bull, and everyone who had a hand in fucking over DR3.

RIP to Julian McMahon (left). I enjoyed him in Nip/Tuck, and remembered he had a part in Red. Secret battle with cancer, it seems. https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/04/entertainment/julian-mcmahon-death

Totally. @cetoole has a 1030 with the Varia. Went R+L at first, but later went with the camera version. Definitely nice to have! Congrat again; that's so hot. Oh, how was the commute?

Sweet!!! When does the vintage ggarmin go up for sale? I was using my iphone then buddy gave me a Galaxy Fold 5. Didn't really consider the "ooops, I don't have a bike computer" thing until I was getting ready for a ride after I sold my iPhone.

Which is a 2-hr follow-up to the amazing 3-hr piece on tariffs in the computer hardware industry below: This piece was big and eye-opening enough that Bloomberg picked it up and brought Steve from GN (aka Tech Jesus) onto their podcast: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-07/the-tariff-buzzsaw-is-coming-for-hardcore-gamers

Oh neat! My birth mother was 15 when that pic was taken.

You're not gonna belieb this, but I, too, got Domino's last night around 9:04pm ET. Mmmmmm, the new stuffed crust is solid.

I didn't know there was an eclipse today.

I knew it was bad, but I didn't know it was fucking-with-someone's-dog bad. That's horrible.

Have heard good things about it and it was on my list; guess I'll bump it up.

Thanks, everyone! Really appreciate the sentiment, Al. Been a really rough time as of late, but birthday was a good day. Went to Bateau, a place @cetoole and I have been meaning to go to for over 7 years. Finally went, and while not the best steak I've ever had, it was really enjoyable. Started the evening with some local wines from the bike shop across the street, Metier. 5pm reservation, so we could get first choice. These were the options on my birthday. Pupperz Cowz Appetizer Onions on the side, obvsly Mmmmm, brioche Salted butter with burnt kale wrap, or some nonsense. The salt on top of this butter wasn't the best thing of the evening, but like... top 3. Beef-fat washed walnut old-fashioned Cheeseburger croquette... slider Colin version We got the 21-day dry aged 18oz bone-in chuckeye and the 126 day dry aged 5oz sirloin tip cap, both med rare. Lemon-herb butter on the chuckeye and bone marrow butter on the sirloin tip cap. Nori butter on the side for Colin. I tried it; not my scene. You'd probably all love it. Mashed potatoes. Milk, butter, potatoes, and gruyere. Some wine Colin knows the name of A little token from the place Finished it off with a little complimentary cookies and creme foam Rest of pix: https://imgur.com/a/birthday-dinner-2025-bs1yDDT
