Hotcakes, we really don't care unless you're vacationing with Giff.

What a fast moving, crazy, fantastic hour of television.

I saw that Jones today. It's either fantastic or vomit.

Though their gravy flavor was ok. Matters if they used steak frite or the thin ass fires i suppose..

21. Fear the Kitten Pretty intimidating name for a horse, eh. This is why you should never let your 4-year old name your thoroughbreds. The sire is named Kitten's Joy and Ken and Sarah Ramsey name all of their homebreds by him with some form of a Kitten name. But yeah, that has to be one of their w...

Prescription? It's legal man... and I forgot I posted it yesterday. These Manhattan's are tasty. Though I did learn today that the first beer to use Cascade hops, perhaps the hop flavor that drove the craft revolution..was coors. The second was Anchor's Liberty Ale, brewed to honour Paul Revere's ri...

Official "Imported" beer of the NHL! Nice, Z!

ETA: That first Manhattan was fantastic.

Don't know how many of you are into "newgrass," but this is the best song about Colorado by a band from New Jersey I've ever heard.

Rush2112

Holy shit.

A History of the Home is fantastic (as is a Short History of nearly Everything.) I love his looks at the look at the histories of the English language are great as well (to tie into microhistories in the reading thread.)

Rush2112

ETA: If only to confuse people (and am reading two at once.)

Really too much Loafs in this...

Rush2112

Thanks for correcting the autocorrect.

It seems boring, but is anything but. A fantastic baseline for the study of human history, as well as some great stories, like the story about how Tabasco sauce came about.

Plus you learn the recipe for garum!

Bronto, what's the skinny on Moe?

Rush2112

There is a local distillery that makes a fantastic Maryland style rye, that historically would have in Manhattan's and tastes so friggin fantastic.

Rush2112

Have you read Salt?

That book friggin rules.

Clay throwing a spitter according to Jack Morris.

If anyone is an eBook reader I have a high percentage of these available in MOBI for anyone that wants them. Number one on that list (that Rush2112 posted) is The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America by Erik Larson. Fascinating book. Highly recommended.

Rush2112

I've also noticed you posting in the craft beer thread a bit more.

It's definitely been a learning experience for everyone involved. I've learned a lot about compassion and knowing when to keep my mouth shut.

Excellent.

and I love Manhattans, quickly becoming my go to drink.

Rush2112

I am. Helps me keep track of books I see here, at the library, or bookstore that I want to read and also makes recommendations based on what I've read/want to read. Also there are a imperial fuckton of user created/voted lists on all sorts of subjects that help me find books to read. This one on mic...

If you can mesmerize like "Cross of Gold" go for it. (Though as long as you don't Strom Thurmond it, you're golden.)

It's true, Stern can ruin all things.

Snowy day here in the Front Range. Perfect day to break out and listen to a licorice pizza.

80's Don Draper is pretty awesome.

As discussed in the Podcast thread there seemed to be some interest in collaboration in creating podcast made up of individually created elements. I'd be glad to put together the first one. Please post if you'd like to participate, no need to come up with an idea as of yet, or anything, but just wan...

Are all the CFL teams set at QB? I'm not sure TSN has blown Tebowmania up north of the border, but would a team take a chance and allow him to "show" that he can run a pro style offense?

ETA: Just saw the Alouettes hold his CFL rights.

Hope no one is drinking anything with hops tonight.

Happy Reinheitsgebot anniversary day!

First time since the early 80s that a team has scored that many in a rain shortened game.

Native Americans hated that, but I would imagine the vultures loved it.
