Happy Birthday Raffy!

Regarding this past weekend and my recent absences from this forum- BS in Neuroscience, Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kapa, these past four years have just flown by. This pretty much says it all.

Speaking of Douches and their douchery, I could barely control myself while at dinner in South Bend last weekend as a young gold cufflink encrusted douch-in-training asked the super hot server to let him taste the $20 rose to make sure it was acceptable. He sniffed it, swirled it, then deemed it unquaffable and sent it back. I could barely hold my pate' down as I listened to him lecture his family and friends on his view of the current oil futures arbitrage opportunities he was evaluating. Ah life can be so mysterious at times.

Happy Birthday!

Ask Ray Samuels, he has good ideas and a new mail order wife who massages his ear buds.

No Ray Samuels and three raffles Colin will probably win, I will have to pass this time.

Happy Birthday!

Began packing for this weekend's trip to South Bend for Graduation weekend. Man four years flies by really fast.

Perhaps?

Happy Birthday Shelly! Wishing you many good drinks to celebrate on your birthday, even if they have to be beers.

Happy Birthday!

There you go Steve, another Castro district reference.

As long as you slather them with plenty of artery clogging butter and garlic and wash them down with ice cold beer or white wine or Champagne it's all good.

I'm with Al and Colin and the margaritas of which I have had two celebrating CdM though I had empanadas which were very good but did not have any crab or even lobster in them which was Ok but I would have preferred lobster in my empanada even though I have never heard of any lobster empanada so there is that. Cheers!

This probably won't get much interest due to the large population meat boilers here but in the olden days this was a favorite way to cook meat and veggies. For anti meat boilers

X2!

Bonding years are some of the best and will remembered for many more. Great job Dad!

Happy birthday!

Thursday Lance fenced the former Russian Federation women's foil team member, and European Champion. Yesterday Lance fenced the University of California, Santa Barbara open foil tournament. The tournament consisted mostly of college students and adult fencers yet Lance took first place/gold medal. It was a good day.

A great evening of fencing. Lance fenced the former Russian Federation womens foil team member, World Champion and European Champion...he did not win.

Happy Birthday!

Wow, lot's of great food on this page! That round of rib looks fantastic! One of the dishes I had on Monday evening had absinthe in the sauce, I think it was the Piranha dish and it was an amazing blend of flavors. Agree, $80 of electricity from just two sessions with the meat boiler seems a bit much. Are you starting to leave your headphone amp on 24/7?

I just started daily Zyrtec and Neilmed nasal wash routines. We have had very aggravating Santa Ana wind conditions recently but so far so good. I will need to be real aggressive this year since we are having these weird environmental phenomena know as "rain" and it is causing all the pollen generating green things to bloom and release California's version of fairy dust. Oh, and snake season started last weekend, so stay tuned for pictures.

Looks amazing Stretch!
