I've had very good Smashburgers. What's not to like, Shelly?

No local farms in SF.

I'm sorry, sir, I will never question the Angus Beef® again in any way sir. [tell her my family had nothing to do with it ... please?]

Get the fucking surgery and get this thing healed properly. I let my screwed up wrist go for 9-10 months before getting surgery while in law school and initially uninsured (the initial urgent care assessment failed to find any clear issues because they are too small to see on x-ray in the beginning) and I have lived with the consequences ever since. Over 20 years later, I recently had another surgery to try to cap the damage. Don't dawdle. Get it fixed.

Thanks Chef Reks! It just seems odd from the patterns and inconsistencies. Grilling within the hour!

These certified Angus beef ribeyes were purchased on monday afternoon and kept in the fridge still wrapped in butcher paper until today. Why do they look this way? Is this a bad thing or just not ideal?

Ugh! Heal quickly and stop recommending people!

Sorry, Dusty, but no real comparison. I've never been a huge fan of silver and gold combos, but the EAR is classy looking compared to the RKV. The combo of the thin black top plate, star trek next generation looking acrylic daisy top, ivory painted body, giant stupid window, and three different sizes and shapes of gold dipped knobs and feet combine for a pretty nasty mess. That said, if you don't mind it -- and I have to imagine a black version would be more appealing -- then I can't see you being dissuaded even by extreme dislike in others. Plus, is there really a Dolce & Gabana GS-1000? THAT is freaky.

In! Nice going Mike!

I should listen to my Fetastic amp with the awesome mini-4-pin connector that Marc made for me because I don't recall it being a big noise issue with JH13s. Do JH16s have the same two-pin connector into the IEM or is it something different?

Yup, ditto all of this Brent!

You guys have really pissed me off by scheduling the first SoFla meet in years right in the middle of my trial. As such, and based on Raffy's request, I searched out photos of the MammalToe to make you writhe in agony. I was frustrated to find so few shots of this beast and nothing with a full frontal shot, perhaps because most people cannot bear to gaze upon it long enough to take a photo. Here is the MammalToe grazing in his natural environment. I also found the MammalToe in his winter coat Well, after searching WAY too many old impressions threads, I had to make do with a shot of AnalToe with the extra added bonus of Oz showing off his mime routine.

I got home from the office while a dinner party for Claire's sister was already in progress. I was following the game in the car home and then on my phone during dinner, etc. I got my brothers in law to come with me to watch the game right when Boston tied it 4-4 and it was exciting stuff. That bizarre play was a buzz-kill and really seemed like such a TKO or something but them's the rules. I can't believe that Salty decided to throw the ball to third after that awesome play by Pedroia to Salty to gun down Molina (a catcher who decided not to smash into another catcher, interestingly). I think the Red Sox will be out for blood and the next game will be super interesting but the Cards tasted first blood on Koji tonight and that may be a big factor for the remainder. Fun stuff regardless. Go Sox!

35 is a good age to be! Have fun with it and I hope you get to enjoy a lovely Michigan beverage or a nice cocktail to celebrate. Cheers!

So British! The fish looks tasty. Have fun in the Blighty G-Man.

Wait, what? In before the lock! Happy birthday Peter! Cheers!

Have a great one Hirsch! Rock on for another 60! Cheers!

Loki is awesome indeed. I would actually not mind the Sox beating the Dodgers but stupid LA won't make it that far. Go Sox!

It's only belated in Blighty. Over here, it is still Peter's big day (and Carl's and Iain's). How soon you forget.

Happy birthday and enjoy some whiskey while relaxing in front of that new wood stove today! Cheers!

Rock on Carl! I hope you get to enjoy that growler of Funky Buddha and listen to some awesome tunes while Bonnie feeds you exotic vegetables grown from antique seeds! Cheers!

Sorry for the retread image but work has my head on fire too! Have a great one for the big 3-0 Peter! Cheers!

Bon voyage, gimpy.
