Happy Birthday Matt!
Hey Wayne, do you know where in TN? We just got a new Cuban place about a mile and a half from me and as he took me and a few others to a little Cuban diner no one would have known about otherwise, the last time I saw him I was thinking about doing that for dinner. It's also a rum bar, so I figure that may get a posthumous approval as well. **BRENT**

What are you reading now?
Heh. RPO was great. Armada was pretty good, about to read Snow crash for the third time, as that's the book this chick is finishing before she starts on the copy of Ender's Game I gave her last week. I'll then have my 8th or 9th go-round with Ender, perhaps doing the whole 13 books, or whatever it's up to now. **BRENT**

Zee menu at Brunch from a place called Root Brunswick stew with rabbit stock, pulled pork, and chicken. Fried green tomato BLT with the B on the side for me. Callebaut Chocolate Pancakes for me. Dark chocolate, nutmeg spiced batter, and maple pecan butter. Not pictured: 1$ mimosas. **BRENT**

Windows 10 - Who's upgrading tomorrow?
I upgraded on the i7-4790/SSD/32GB RAM machine on day 1. Took hour 45. I upgraded on the i7-3537u/SSD/4GB ram. Took 28 minutes. Both came from Win 8.1 installs, and I'm not sure why the (much more powerful) desktop took longer (SSD in that one is slower, but it's still a current model SSD), but W10 has been great for me after a restart for the nVidia driver to realize what's up. I AM a bit frustrated by the fact that the guest account doesn't work in W10. I think they took it out in June or July. There's still a way to dig in and activate it, but it's really buggy. (I'd let someone use my comp, but I tend to always lock my machines when I walk away, out of habit.) **BRENT**

What are you listening to Part the Third
Dusty, it's probably "Instant Crush" by Daft Punk ft. Julian Casablancas. I didn't realize what it was until I heard the chorus and I was like "wait, what? I know this song, I think, but... wait, what?!?!" Then I googled and realized it was as cover album. And then I put it on repeat. Thank Satan I don't usually listen to lyrics or I'd probably be <3 broken. **BRENT**

What are you listening to Part the Third
I've listened to this literally 15 times since I heard about it on Tuesday. It's a cover album of songs written/performed by, as you may have guessed, males. This is my current favorite song: **BRENT**

The lady's veggie burger. My proper meal of ribs. New place from the owners of two of my 5 faves places in town, including my fav. This place I have been waiting for for 5 months, and I had stupid high expectations. It exceeded them, somehow. This is my new favorite place in Chattanooga, and if anyone swings through town I am taking them here. These are easily the best ribs I have ever had in my life. I've been to opening night at a few places in town and this was by far the best. Oh, we had an appetizer. Pickled veggies, deviled eggs, pralines (I think)_ and cheese sticks (basically goldfish.) I despise veggies but tried everything and was OK with some. Even the veggie burger with chipotle mayo was good. If you know how much I despise mayo and veggies you will realize how ridiculous it is that I tried this, much less liked it. Where is the drunk thread again? Also, why am I typing on my phone whilst sitting at a computer. **BRENT**

Just finished Armada by Ernest Cline. It's no Ready Player One, but it wasn't, to me, as bad as the critics have been saying, even if **BRENT**

Lil' Dicky - Professional Rapper Middle class white suburban Jewish comedic rapper who's done some pretty funny stuff. His album dropped on Friday. First track off this album ft. Snoop Dogg - "Professional Rapper" First song I'd heard from him, which is called "White Dude", and it's amazing. "White Crime" I figure the 25-35 crowd will be amused, and no one else. Colin excluded, of course. **BRENT**

WiMP comes to the UK/US as Tidal
I just saw that T-Mobile's "Music Freedom" deal (where they allow you to stream music from a ton of services without incurring data charges) just added a bunch... one of them is Tidal. I have an older unlimited plan, so doesn't affect me, but I do 5-10GB/mo with Tidal, so this would be pretty fantastic. Music services include: Apple Music Pandora iHeartRadio Rhapsody Beatport Spotify Slacker Radical.FM 8tracks Milk Music Black Planet Songza Rdio Radio Paradise AccuRadio SoundCloud Saavn Digitally Imported JAZZRADIO.com ROCKRADIO.com RadioTunes radioPup radio.com Mad Genius Radio Xbox Music Live365 Fresca Radio Google Music Fit Radio SiriusXM Tidal Music MixRadio BandCamp **BRENT**

Mmmm... Chips y queso during a pre-release screening of Vacation. Mmmm... 21+ theatre + a button to call a server for food/drinks. Why the fuck have I never gone to a theatre that serves bottles of wine? **BRENT**
