I noticed there wasn't alot of bike in Dubai, but I can see where a bike wouldn't be that nice to ride thru a blast furnace...

Too much rock and roll I think. No, no word on the cause yet but the last time they said it was too much tea. The tea isn't actually the trouble, it's unfiltered water. As far as the rest of you stoners, I saw your comments in last weeks thread but I couldn't get the quotes moved over here earlier today. (thanks!)

I'd give a dollar to see that!

Afternoon all. Time to put the steaks on the grill.

Shorts, abby wambaugh was my charity golf partner. amazing athlete and spirit. runs a kids soccer camp, hands on , not in name only.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, viral ribs. just the way i like them. had ribs, beef brisket in rochester, took hubby last week to Dinosaur BBQ. dog gone smokin' good food. Jazz/Blues joint. even their toothpicks are good.

hubby and I cleaned house, good feeling. cat brought us breakfast of fat mouse and chipmunk. thanks, but no thanks.and we don't eat at 4:30AM.

getting busy this month, decisions on flying out to California for favorite aunt's b day surprise per cousins request. she's up there at 89 or 91. spunky like betty White. funny as all get out. better think on it.

this week sees a lot of charity work because it is the right thing to do, not that I want to though. oh well.

try to do something good for someone this week.

Bourbon chicken simmering on the stove. Rice in the steamer.

TotallyRad, glad things went well. Are you going to keep your precious gems and put them into a ring or necklace? Cause that would be classy.

FO, what's nutella?

Chaikwa, sounds like it's safer if you're more hands off in the kitchen.

madhat, I wish I were near the coast right now. Yeah, it is freakin' hot.

JWBE, I wondered what you were gonna do with the raCoon. Sounds like it'll be finding a new tree to live in. And that is way cool about you and Abby being golf partners. Oh, about the DVRd game, the stupid thing only records for the time slot so I only got a few minutes into the first 15min OT and poof! The game went away. I'm going to stay up late tonight and watch the rerun. I HAVE to see the ending! I feel so incomplete and kind of sad. But boy, that curly headed ref was waayyyyy to involved in the game. I can't believe the red card on Buehler and that crap about the goal kick and rekick. I'm impressed the girls kept their composure as much as they did even after the fact. Anyway, from where I stand from as much as I've been able to watch of the game, it's a nail biter right now and Brazil has the momentum.

Its about as addicting as crack.
nutritionally, is comparable to peanut butter, but is sweeter and has a cocoa flavoring.
put nutella on one slice of wheat bread, peanut butter on the other and it tastes likes a reeses cup, but healthier.

Evenin' all,

Chkn fried steak, mashed potatoes, cream gravey, sweet peas, sweet tea, got fresh strawberry's with whipped cream for desert.

FO, got a grandaughter that loves nutella. I think it is almond butter with chocolate mixed in. It is OK.

Wammabe no ratcoon burgers? You got a busy hunting kitty. Calif trip sounds like a lot of fun. You sure ain't letting an grass grow under you feet.

Chiakwa can do so many things well, not being allowed in the kitchen is no big loss. Many willing hands to do the cooking. Just enjoy it.

Hat good to see you back, You was missed around here.

Time to take the Dragon for a walk.

Have a good un and be safe out there.

NOW you're gettin' it! So with this new found knowledge... what's for breakfast?

I dunno about the 'so many things' comment. I can weld and tick people off. I guess the welding's ok, but the other is nothing to be proud of!

Evening all.

Yes I do. I used to have a cast iron stomach. Now it's more like paper mâché!

Sounds like an episode of Rescue Me. You would be forever running for groceries where I work. And no not everyone is allowed to cook, for obvious reasons. That's why my Friend, the truckies do the hard stuff.

A quarter century with the same woman as of today, I have truly been a very blessed man. She is even hotter looking now than when we first got married, I have no earthly idea how she did that staying with me. Actually I do but its a secret.

I'm going to have to try this stuff.

Evening all. The steaks were great along with a salad with fresh out of the garden veggies. Somebody stick a fork in me because I'm done.

Well, that would be true if you were here more often. But more than likely, they'd miss you.
