Hopstretch

You're a good man, Steve.

Back ribs.

My wife just hopped on to do her first live session and it was from somewhere that looked like a nightclub, complete with a DJ. The instructor of course had tits out to here and was a pretty decent stand-up (sit down?) comic to boot. It's all completely ridiculous, but this is America I guess and are you not entertained?

Sort of related ...

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark -- The Punishment of Luxury Lot of Kraftwerk in evidence, not that that's a bad thing.

Interesting design!

TTVJ (and others, I assume) has $1,000 off Utopias with a nominal trade-in. I wonder if the measurement/QA back and forth with Tyll hurt sales?

Epic!

Seemed appropriate given the events unfolding.

You got told to put it back in your pants? I hate that.

Iron & Wine -- Beast Epic

It's under a salad spinner -- was probably about three inches long. I almost stepped on the bugger while stumbling to the kitchen for my morning coffee. Woke me up fast anyway. Later, went for a kayak on San Rafael Bay with the kids. As we were coming back into the creek, we passed a scraggly and -- as far as I could see -- naked dude furiously paddling a kids' inflatable boat backwards against the current. As one does.

Relocated an uninvited house guest. Don't get these in Surrey!

Mbappe to PSG. That's quite a strike force now with Neymar and Cavani.

Happy Birthday Pussywillow!

They can fuck off.

Three meat brunch. I ignored the collards. Pulled pork was good. Vinegary not sweet. Brisket was tender but had a boiled consistency. Meh. Smoked chicken flat out sucks. Rubbery skin and feels undercooked in the mouth even when it's done. Bleah.

Leftovers for breakfast. [emoji505]

New War On Drugs Album. I am a big fan of this guy.

Bernzomatic ts8000. I will be happy to take suggestions!

Oh, I also bought a Searzall to play with but still need to get some propane bottles. [emoji91][emoji91][emoji91][emoji243][emoji243][emoji243]

Nice! I went the other way around tonight. Ribeyes at 265 degrees indirect on the grill until they hit 115 internally, then seared in a very hot skillet. Came out medium rare with a nice thick crust. Sorry no internal pix, I was hungry ...

I've never got the hang of that.

A further palate cleanser I came across recently, which instantly joined the Grail List. F.P. Journe Octa Calendrier in platinum with a black mother of pearl dial. They only made a dozen or so. The way it catches the light!
