As many of you know I'm my own worst critic when it comes to my cooking. I'll often grumble bitch moan about something I've made that isn't up to what I think it should be. Everyone else is happily eating it, which may just be the fact that they are hungry and didn't have to cook it so it's just fine by them. Either way I'm usually pretty harsh on ( Read more... )

When I got hit by the car last year my damage, dents, scratches, breaks was well documented. My bike took little to no damage so nothing to write about there. My jacket, clothes and phone were pretty much a loss. However my watch is a whole other story. This is that story ( Read more... )

Last week in Costco I spotted some pierogis on the pasta isle. Normally all you can ever find anywhere in this part of the country is Mrs T's Pierogis. (I think it's Mrs Ts something like that at least), but this was a non frozen package of Kasia's Potato and Cheese Pierogis. I had to try em.  Oh my, oh my oh my, easily the best store bought ( Read more... )

Oh man if I had the money, I found a 1975 Honda cb 125 motorcycle for sale on Ebay. That bike I'd actually learn how to be "innovative" for. I have a project in mind for this very bike. Only this year and only this bike will do. And here someone posts a running one for 250 bucks. Sure I'd have to go to Illinois for it but.. it'd be worth it ( Read more... )

I watched Death Race last night. I had no idea how closely it was tied to one of my favorite movies Death Race 2000. But right from the opening scene with the mask, Machine Gun Joe calling the other racer "Franky" I was going wow this is a serious homage to that 70's camp classic They even used Carradine's voice. Then the opening credits.. Roger ( Read more... )

I drug my ass out and actually shot a show last weekend, god I miss doing this all the time. The Meridian is still holding in there although several familiar faces have moved over to House of Blues. That part is depressing to me, but what can you do right ( Read more... )

A couple of years ago I bought a nice Logitech wireless mouse and keyboard. In the past my mouse and keyboard usually die due to the cords going bad. Despite that I was hesitant to buy into what must surely be a battery sink, however the battery issue never materialized. In fact the batteries last a long time despite the almost constant use they ( Read more... )

I went to see the doctor today. He walks in looks at my foot puts his hands on/around the foot and looks at me and says "do you want to walk again" Right then for some reason a vision of some evangelist faith healer went through my head. He coulda then gone on to say "Be Healed" and the moment would have been complete. Instead he said ok let's get ( Read more... )

Patrick Mcgoohan and Ricardo Mantalban dying this week made me think man how many people who've had a memorable part of scifi have seemed to die recently. I got to thinking last year really sucked for how many famous people died or at least ones that I had more than a passing interest in.
Also a lot of people associated with Star Trek died last year ( Read more... )
