Oh Yeah
Made something delicious and easy. French or Wheat bread Stauffers (?) Mac and cheese Jack Daniels chicken (frozen section). Caramelized Onions (some water to get the sweet brown goodness). Fairly apparent what to do. I grilled them up to add a nice crisp to the bread on my Panini grill afterwards. The flavors are more interesting than one might think.

I missed this one. Hi Paul! Chances are fair you come here every blue moon. Good thing I don’t have comments on, or items I’d mention you’d direct a link to buy some uninspired bullshit for profit. It took me a long time to write a proper letter to express my feelings. About 2 seconds. Here it goes. Curl up and fuck off. Regards

Spare Parts Glued Together
You know those movies where the female villain finds some kind of potion, blood sucking, sperm collecting and whatnot to stay young?  By the end she regresses back to her 101 year old hideous self, looking for a little tongue from the bad guy that was her minion and partner.   Fiction?  I wish.  Ever watch a girl that looks about 20 something slowly turn 40+ after a few hours.  Make up...

Well Then
The CEO of T11 is now 24. That explains something to me in a cryptic manner I can’t quite describe. Good news is I support old wise men….. The types that still have a nice shop to walk into even though I order online. Not that I’m talking about anyone in particular, but Denny’s revamp looks great doesn’t it! Indeed. I have pride in this. It seems we all should,...

One Too Many
Lately my Bikes feel like 52 Snapple bottle caps. I think I might switch to the Hello Kitties or chance cards from Monopoly for an improvement.

Encode!
Welp.  Seems that puppy isn’t encoding properly.  And Vimeo only needs three friggin’ hours.  Just so ya’ll know the problem isn’t necessarily between the keyboard and chair.

Friends
I arrived at a very local bar tonight, ordered a boring Vodka Tonic and went out back where I could see the stars. The night was rather ominous. The kind of night from Sleepy Hollow…..which has nothing to do with anything….. I struck up a conversation with a lady, which was quite refreshing in comparison to the weekend. It’s hard to find those rather blissful “pinging” conversations. Strange...

One Toke Over The Line
Last night I was offered to smoke some hash out in the parking lot of a place. When in Rome. Didn’t take but 10 minutes and I had an overwhelming urge to get the fuck out, go home and put on some music. Sometimes public places are horrible for the soul when your high. That strange tunnel vision thing. Where you plan your scheme of the basics. “I’m going to walk out that...

Hat Tip
Andrew has been doing a hell of a job digging through the great card blogs. As of now, though only started he’s mentioned my personal favorites also. Going back to Smiling Mules post on the shift, he notes the point if not “snapping”. Right away I’m reminded of Walton stating the upmost importance of this also. Don’t underestimate the sleights section Roy put...

Realistic Odds
I’ve been really having fun with Choosy Choice. Roy’s variant of Hammans Suit Yourself. I think it brings up a fair question to ponder with being somewhat realistic as per odds. Of course the true odds are 100 percent, but it’s much more realistic than say sorting a whole deck from reds and blacks. I admit I rather dislike the ending, and cut out the discard pile….as...

Balls And Nuts!
Just made a quick easy treat for guests tonight.  Air popped popcorn Butter Marshmallows Chocolate Chips Macadamia Nuts Fuck actual measurements.  Just add some butter and some marshmallows and mix it up until it’s smooth.   Add the popcorn to the mix, and add the nuts at the same time. Add the chocolate at the end. Roll into balls on some wax paper.  A very complex recipe.  Be...

Huh?
I haven’t bought an online EA game in a long time.  This is why I hate “piracy” shit.  Or in this case the real big bucks!  Rentals! This may be old news, but to play Dead Space 2 online you simply enter your code, just the same as always.  But if you don’t have a code you can get one online for ten dollars….so if you rent or borrow the game like a normal good...

Salmon, Blood And Lifts
I love the ocean. Some kind of strange wonderful. Those salty smells, rolling sounds and thick winter air. It all tends to refresh a person near instantly. I asked a few of the locals where the Sea Dogs go when they come into port for a good time. Actually was a nice place. Brute men and cussing all around. My kind of wonderful again. Good times. I met a very interesting biologist. The kind of...

Numbers
620,000 dead, the Civil War was the bloodiest war in American History. During roughly the same period 1850-64 in China, a Christian convert named Hong Xiuquan led a revolt to eradicate Confucianism, Buddhism, and folk religions and replace them with a Christian “Utopia” he called the Heavenly Kingdom. 20-40 MILLION Chinese men, woman and children were killed.

Razor Burn Tip
The past couple of months I’ve been in razor burn hell. I tried different razors and the end was always the same. It got so bad a guy said “nice hickey” after a shave a few days ago. It began to appear as a bad acne trail that would go away after three days or so and then return on my next shaving. Cure! Dip your razor in rubbing alcohol from time to time. I found that I was basically...

Really Sad
Please my friends! Become an avid reader. Books are life affirmative. 1/3 of high school graduates never read another book for the rest of their lives. 42 percent of college graduates never read another book after college. 80 percent of U.S. families did not buy or read a book last year. 70 percent of U.S. adults have not been in a bookstore in the last five years. 57 percent of new books...

Not Really Science
I recently heard about Derren Brown doing a show called The Science Of Attraction. Crappy title, but hey. I’ve only watched the bit on YouTube and they failed to mention a key note. While we men can be attracted to a woman physically in a matter of a second or two, it’s rare women do the same. Don’t get me wrong. Looks do matter. The guy with a fanny pack, that smells bad and...

Red Mirror
Helder Guimaraes. A guy I know little about in all honesty, thus I went through being a virgin as to his routines and entertaining. I like the man if you will. He’s relaxed, takes the stage and does his thing. Nice and mellow. The routines struck me as rather boring though. There is very little true audience participation. In fact I found it hard to simply sit through the performance....

Dbl Udr Cuht
This is a little nothing that to me is a huge something. If you ask a laymen to cut the cards in their hands, most all will use the right thumb to riffle/lodge the cards and put the top under the left. I recall Tyler Wilson stating that to improve a DUC immensely, simply put the top cards with the right to the bottom, while not moving the left hand. Id like to add the use of an erdnase break....

Killing
So many people say “piracy/youtube is killing magic”. Can someone please give an estimated date or year please.  Don’t use a verb, as an action that has an ending point.  Who gives a shit.  I’m middle ground.  I have all I need on my shelves….still.  Fucks sake though.  That is the most tired bullshit statement.  If the Earth lasts another 10,000 years there will...
