Nice going Fitz. And Steve I don't know why you change them if they sound good to you.

You should change your avatar to American Gothic, Garrison Keillor.

Congrat Guillaume! Sounds so cool Doug. Keep on mashing and keep us informed.

Happy birthday Biggie! I figured since you are a baker who shares a birthday with Mike Baker then you should have a birthday thread early along with him. Have a great one and I hope somebody else bakes for you today! Cheers!

Happy birthday Mike. We've arranged a national holiday in your honor, so have a great day! Cheers!

Heroic! Great decision, Jim.

Big congrat to Jim for snagging the T2!

I started watching after the first season and have meant to go back. Good reminder. How'd you like it?

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble -- Texas Flood (SACD)

Good food and wine will get you part of the way at least. Any import shops for the brew and malt needs? It's good to have a challenge at hand. Good luck.

I knew it would work out, Tom, and happy to hear you like what you hear more already.

Woke up in Mayberry, sent daughter off to work at the cupcake shop, cleaned up from the construction dust and shifted furniture back, watched some Tour de France and World Cup, had lunch, went to SF with wife, son and 18yo French girl whom I have known since she was 5 or so, dropped dog in SF, checked French girl into her lodgings for the English language immersion program she starts Tuesday, picked up daughter, took short nap back at home in SF, went to dinner at a Japanese restaurant, watched Toy Story, came home, checked HC and made cocktails. Now hoping to hear music and chill but the Doshi seems compromised and the left channel is garbled and faint. Tube? Wait to tomorrow to figure out? Fuck. Better drink.

Jealous of grawk and his blue crab access. Best anywhere.

Lance made a very strong showing on the first day and I was thrilled that he beat Contador in the Prologue time trial. Especially given that the Wall Street Journal published the same Fuckhead Landis accusations on the eve of the race. Weak move by the WSJ But nice that Lance kept his composure and channeled the anger into riding strong. Psyched for the whole race!

Congrats Inu and KG!

Partagas No. 4 c/o Naaman. Tasty

Why so crappy? No weggy ebbY?

Hard to match with beer but probably the best chip evar. One of the few items I break down and buy from the snack machine at my office.

Perfect response.

Agreed. Indeed.

Jealous of your mood and your dinner. Keep up the good mood V. That's awesome. Hoping for a little lift back at work after my staycation.

I got wood looking at the beauty shot of the latest Cooter Creation. Really want to hear this one because I missed Frank's last two offerings.

Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros -- Global A Go-Go (vinyl). Thinking of Stretch after watching and listening to the World Cup today. Thought I would fill the void with a couple likely selections if he were posting.

Housemartins -- London 0 Hull 4 (vinyl)

Many and multiple congrat to all of our successful up and comers!
