  1. Bon voyage, gimpy.
  2. Well said.
  3. Fuck! All food pics tonight make me hungry and sad. I just had one of each of these: Luckily there was beer left over from a happy hour that I missed entirely earlier, so I washed these awful things down with Anchor Steam.
  4. Made it in before midnight Mountain Time!
  5. RED SOX WIN!!! 2 games to 1! As Gene says, this was really all they had to do in Detroit. Also on Gene's sage advice, I am ok with the Dodgers getting a maximum of 2 wins to give them false hope and also to wear out the Cards a bit more before the Red Sox - Cardinals Series.
  6. One big fly and two HUGE strikeouts with men at 1st and 3rd! So wish I could actually watch a game and drink a beer instead of listening on a computer while working. And yes, I'll stop whining about work soon.
  7. OK, we sang happy birthday to you, so can we go play with Watson now?! Happy birthday Queen V! It's never about you any more, once you have a child. Have a great day with Watson and Ivan and make sure not to feed him chocolate or he will die. Cheers!
  8. More of those!
  9. Fuck! I was listening to the horrors while working and then had to turn off the sound for a conf call and missed the miracle win! GO SOX! GO BIG PAPI!
  10. Holy crap. Do the Sox even have bats with them when they are going to the plate?
  11. The curries were great but I LOVE Lime Pickle! I will be acquiring some soon!
  12. No chance the Dodgers are making out of the 0-2 hole. Quote me! I am rooting against Dodgers to the end, whenever that is. I get to root for the Sox now even though Todd will be bummed when the Sox step all over the Tigers.
  13. Boy that headphone stand/amp/dac is atrocious. Cheers to Todd & Pete at RMAF -- wish I were hanging with you guys, having beers, and maybe watching the Red Sox kick ass! (Sorry Todd ). Toasting you with a Topless Wytch (c/o Mike Sr. I believe) while working in Mayberry. Cheers!
  14. Yay!
  15. I'm jealous that Jeff actually knows how to take real photos and can use something than the Auto setting.
  16. Look, it's all explained here:
  17. Rude assholes ftmfw!
  18. It's not that often that in one night you can see world class jazz musicians play amazing arrangements of all these tunes: Ornette Coleman -- When Will the Blues Leave Thelonious Monk -- Crepescule With Nellie and San Francisco Holiday Herbie Hancock -- And What If I Don't Horace Silver -- Song For My Father (encore -- it made me think of Jacob) For their 10th anniversary year, the SF Jazz Collective is doing a retrospective of their greatest hits, including their annual arrangements of a Jazz Giant's compositions and their own original compositions inspired by that artist. We heard nine fabulous tunes, with two of Monk's because it would be his 96th birthday today. I should have had a Brother Thelonious beer, which was available, but I really don't like it so I had a La Merle Saison instead. I figured Monk wouldn't mind and would have made the same choice. After the run here through Sunday, this is their very odd tour schedule coming up, and I highly recommend seeing them if you are able: Oct 15 Chico, CA Laxson Auditorium Buy Tickets Oct 17 Santa Barbara, CA Campbell Hall Buy Tickets Oct 19 Los Angeles, CA Zipper Concert Hall Buy Tickets Oct 22 Seattle, WA Earshot Jazz Festival Buy Tickets Oct 23 Davis, CA Mondavi Center Buy Tickets Oct 26 Newport News, VA Ferguson Center Concert Hall Buy Tickets Oct 27 Winchester, VA Shenandoah University Buy Tickets
  19. I don't like the Dodgers even advancing this far, but so long as their hopes and dreams are crushed at some point that will suffice.
  20. Well, the Pirates' offense hasn't shown up through 6 so I'm a little concerned about their ability to beat the Dodgers. I'm just going to wait and see who wins and then root for them against the damn Dodgers.
  21. You know, I'm kind of sick of the Cards too even though they are one of my typical NL fallback teams (in part due to a good friend from StL). I'm rooting for the Pirates tonight (so long as you'all think they can beat the Dodgers for sure)!
  22. Yuck! And good luck!
  23. Sorry Wayne, but RED SOX WIN! I really want Detroit to beat the A's and then have the Sox take the pennant. Stupid Braves couldn't manage the Dodgers but I hope the Cards win and then wipe the LA blight out of the post-season.
