The Monkey

I need to start using the aeropress again. Good coffee that thing makes.

x100, I love iced Vietnamese coffee.

Brent, you should be eligible to enroll in your own plan regardless of the open enrollment period due to a qualifying event. Absent that, I believe you should be covered under COBRA.

I know, I know...I haven't purchased it yet, though. Is it too girly? I kinda like it.

I'm gonna need a banana bag in the morning...

Thanks, Wes.

What hate?

My sister-in-law is a doctor and says that when the nurses are hungover they hook themselves up to an IV with vitamins and stuff in it called a "Banana Bag." That sounds good.

I agree with Ric and John. I don't begrudge Skylab; he seems to be pretty honest and as far as I know he seems to be taking care to be clear that he receives things for free to review. Having written a few longer impression posts, I share Ric's feeling: they're exhausting. So more power to Skylab. He and I don't like the same stuff, but who cares. And I even understand the self-appointed "experts" posting their (mostly) dreadful drivel masquerading as "reviews." What I don't understand are the people who beg and plead for "reviewers" to finish their review so they can make a decision. wtf? And then the people who joyfully (and idiotically) conclude, based on someone else's review, "so I guess it is the best headphone after all!" What the fuck happened to critical thinking? To making up one's own mind? To giving a shit? That's not to say I don't like reading impressions here. What it does mean is that one HC "Those suck!" is worth more to me than a bucketful of babbling bullshit from most other places (except innerfidelity).

Why?

Hangovers are the worst.

So far I have used Intel and Crucial without issues.

The "> Tebow" meme is pretty funny (see comments section): http://espn.go.com/blog/afcwest/post/_/id/34680/time-for-elway-to-think-post-tebow

Agree. Thanks Ric.

Just got back from trick or treating in our building. Little Monkey had a good time. And when we ran out of candy to disburse to the greedy little children who came to our door, Little Monkey replenished from his own stock. He gets that from his mother--obviously.

Holy sweet Jesus. I had no idea that was Debbie Harry. Wow.

lol. That sounds absolutely terrifying.

Thank god you cleared that up.

Not yet, Al. Trying to figure out how I would smuggle it in without Katie noticing...

2" here, none of which stuck around, but it was all around nasty yesterday. My friend in Bklyn has a tree down in his yard. He's not happy right now. Hope everyone gets their power back soon.

Does anything?

New Tumi bag.
