Orange beef meat candy -- I accidentally caramelized the sugar and garlic in my orange garlic hoisin sauce, so it came out most sweet and tasty

Oh fuck yeah, new Slowdive!

They actually make more sense as appetizers.

There is a good chance I'm only coming up for the day, or perhaps the day and one night, as I don't really feel like putting my kitties in the kitteh hotel, and they were fine when I left them alone for 36 hours on New Year's. What would be best, come up mid-day on Saturday, leave first thing Sunday?

That's a weird two courses to have.

You mean, like Grado is, when people complain about the comfort of his headphones? Yeah, I don't think he needs to do anything. I do. I hate people. I would definitely hire PR people and then stay the fuck out of it.

Happy birthday, Jarvis...Jack...Jean...er...John and Frank!

Stahp.

That song is just way too jubilant. I've never heard it before, but I can see how the phrase, "how do you do" would trigger it if given just the right pacing. We shall see.

Quit touching it. Stahp. What are you doing? Stahp.

I see what you did there. And/or freezing rain. I'm going to have to cancel my guitar lesson again.

Too bad that Tigran Hamaysan is a pre-order, too, I already have Mockroot. There were a couple things I could have come up with but I'm at work so... Thanks for posting, though, Brent.

Yeezh. This. Well, on the outside anyway -- from rain and milk. This is approved (I have that same apricot liqueur):

I'm on my desktop, I can't see the video either. Maybe it's private/non-shareable?

I don't know, and too close to my bedtime to guess, but I am incredibly curious. If you want to give it 24 hours, I'll guess tomorrow. Speaker isolation (Auralex, Primacoustics) or Turntable isolation (...uh...). Oh, look at that, Auralex makes something called an ISO-Tone...that's my guess. What about volume, did that make a difference?

No, it's just one of those incredibly catchy tunes. I can't hear "Instanbul" without hearing "not Constantinople". An 'earworm', as it were.

Not Constantinople?

Fuck, that's cold.

I'm more of a Oregano, Parsley, Dill Weed, Carraway, ...oh, who am I kidding, I like all the spices. Except maybe anise, and even that in certain recipes, if used lightly. I'm sure there are others. And maybe allspice, which is a weird name, and shouldn't be called that. Thanks Shelly, I'll definitely check Sage out and see. I do have some unmentioned requirements, so don't really expect anyone else to have a solid recommendation. I'm trying to figure out a good model for what I'm trying to do. It's sort of a sparse matrix meets...I don't know...that's why I didn't mention it, the idea isn't fully formed yet. Thanks everyone for all your input.

Yeah, that's probably it.
