Not now, but just got back from Pilin, and they gave me a free desert...again! They must really love me there. I came just before closing, and they waved me down, "sit, sit, eat, eat", making me feel very welcome, and not intruding on their closing time at all. After which I watched them turn 4 people away because they were closed. Not rude, but just calm, consistent, "no, I'm sorry, we're closed", "no, not even for take out", etc. I wonder if they have to go through that every night. But I sat by the window, and practically flaunted my meal in their faces. Not on purpose, just worked out that way. I probably saw as many people and/or groups of people stop by, look in the window, check out the menu, and -- yes, visibly -- think to themselves, "I really need to check this place out when it's open, that looks good."

Delay and flip the polarity and you can have true balanced. Dibs on the patent!

Hey, that's my idea of a good time.

Succinct, but wise, FTW. It's funny 'cause it's true.

I have a nearly complete em:t collection.

Cocktails were my first alcoholic beverage ever. I didn't even know you could drink tequila straight until I tried a really good one...was that last year, or the year before? I think it was last year. I wouldn't drink the stuff I drank in college straight. That whole salt/drink/lime thing was to completely overload the taste organ so that you didn't realize you were drinking swill. Sabotage/camouflage, as it were. What was the question again? I think the answer's, 'yes'.

Gas 0095

...an emmy winner. Neil Patrick Harris has twins. He was the best in that episode.

Sounds silly, now. "Green yellow-green." Yes, yes, I know.

There are 'cuts'? Whatever is streaming on Netflix.

Happy Birthday!

If they sound as good as they look, then they sound blurry: The Cylons called, they want their heads back: ...okay, I'll stop.

I did not. I just thought it was a funny picture. If pressed, I would have to say that in the back of my mind, I was probably thinking that his chin/neck/upper chest itched, like when a dog or cat drag their butt on the floor.

They're going to throw you all for a loop when the next number is a fraction, and it makes perfect sense once you figure out the quadratic. The trick is, it needs to be plotted out on an actual timeline.

Only if you point the shingle-side towards the driver. Mini-dispersion.

Part way through The Big Sleep -- Bogey really sells his charisma in this one.

Not a lot. But the whole point behind the vacuum is to clean it once I make it visible. I don't currently have that problem, but I usually do, so thanks for the heads-up. I have to admit, I don't know of too many vacuums that could handle my hair. Bare floors, and a brush attachment, but then it still gets snagged in the bristles. Lose-lose.

That looks more like an award (for most records spun, or something), than something I would actually want on my head.

I think you're overstating things -- driver caution helps very much up to a certain point, E.G. not driving to fast for the conditions, I.E. not putting yourself in the situation and/or avoiding the situation in which you need the extra traction.

I want a bigger rack, myself. My current one is all used up. Me: a vacuum. It's no Dyson Animal, but it's better than nothing, and is light enough and compact enough that I should be able to use it and keep it in my cluttered room. Plus it was only $50. New.

Vindaloo from Bombay Curry Company -- quite possibly the hottest thing I've ever eaten and will eat again.

Yeah, that's pretty much where I am (stuck in a loop with the title track). And for me it's (a) the grand opening; ( that riff right before the the chorus to Losing the Sunsets (especially when one of the guitars drops an octave), and © the riff with the squeal in the middle section. I love the guitar tones on this one. So yeah, listening to it again right now. EDIT: Alright, (d) the repeated chord where he goes sharp during Evael 10:00 is pretty blood-curdlingly good, too.

So I looked it up on Google, and it appears to be reviewed quite well. People like Pho King. That should be their tagline.
