That bone is there for a reason, and those two pieces of meat should be separated and prepared in a way that befits the filet and the strip individually, as they are wildly differnt cuts of beef when on their own. By cutting and prepping it in that way, IMO both sides get ruined. I didn't order that tonight; I just felt like complaining about it.

I've never been impressed with Ruth's Chris. And all their hoopla over putting butter on their steak is :rolleyes:. I'd just as soon go to an Outback.

Only if you are a well-done steak man, that is true. If you eat your beef cool center, porterhouse works very well. Once you have a hot center, IMO almost no beef is worth eating. ^ I agree with this post.

Re: Retrojet meet. I emphasize the word, meet. Since that is what I did today. I want to thank Hartmann for picking us (baby photog72 and I) up and driving us to/from IAH to see the new a/c. Nice to meet you Hartmann. I met baglady, sans Plus1. But, she was w/ her father. It was nice meeting you two. Thanks for your help in dealing w/ baby photog72. Thanks to Hartmann for helping out with the little one as well. And, it was nice meeting sdm1130 and soon to be Mrs. sdm1130, and his father. I hope you had a good trip to DSM. I had a great time today. Yeah, it was 102 for the high, but we were indoors for all of it.
As for CO day on July 15, what's going to happen at IAH? For now, I am free that day. I hope I am not. I hope I have a job by then.

Bath/Spa:rolleyes: Spas in the master bath are the biggest waste of money since very, very, very few people use them.

sounds interesting, but I think I have to skip this year, I may plan it out in advance next year!
People don't think I am that organized, but I like to plan things 5-6 months out.....

Unfortunately it's looking like I'll be in SFO on 7/15 and probably not via HOU. I've been trying to teach the Canuck a new accent. I started teaching her Aussie, but the eh's got in the way of the protracted oooooooooo's. :rolleyes: I'm now lobbying for non-Texan Southern but she's having a mighty difficult time with that too. At least she doesn't say cawfee. :rolleyes: Morning Box. Interview went well this a.m. New (internal) job should be in place by end of Fiscal Year. ^ Bachelor party* weekend starts in t-8 hours. :o *not mine

Of course the locel news agencies are going gah-gah over it. More :rolleyes: I am sick and tired of the news about MJ, the pedophile.
I find it very sad that the death of Farrah Fawcett has essentially been ignored. She fought her cancer w/ courage and out in the open. While I understand the OTT (over-the-top) coverage on MJ, it is just TOO much. :rolleyes:

Have you heard of the word spontaneous???? I plan everything 5-6 days in advance when I'm luck. Really, I don't plan out THAT much, but for an event like this that I want to take it all in, I do like to have a plan. I don't like crowds too much either, so if I plan it out right I can get a hotel for next year booking early, and a car arranged; then I can actually enjoy it. I want to take it like a vacation where I can leave work behind, if I take it this year I'll be on call, and won't be able to enjoy. While I am boss, I have corporate responsibilities as well that I must fulfill. We are using the economic troubles of the world now to launch a lot of growth, so I have to be on the ball. About the too old thing, I figured I'd get a reaction from someone. I don't have a clue how old she is, but she has a very pretty face, and teeth, unlike me. |

Well the hammer just came down: I am officially unemployed. :rolleyes: Glad I started hunting earlier this week.
I finally got to meet with my bosses here and I will be here through Decemeber. Kinda odd starting a job and knowing when it is ending.

SoBe's new lifewater fuji apple pear would make a great mixer ingredient....really liking the crisp flavor. For that matter the new snapple asian pear would also work well.

Tonight is an unmitigated disaster. That's all I'm saying.

Random question - what's a good way to get rid of gym equipment you wont be able to use/find space for at a new apartment?
I have a nice gym quality olympic bench (with incline/decline and self-spotting), hex dumbbell pairs in 5lb increments up to 50lbs, and a full stride treadmill with automated incline. A yard sale seems a complete waste of the initial investment, ebay'ing weights seems like a bad idea for shipping, and i'm fairly sure the Play it Again Sports would totally screw me on the price. Do i just have the accept these items are going to go for a tiny amount of their retail value and be happy I dont have to lug them up the stairs in California? |
Think about Craig's list.
Ebay with a declaration of "pick-up" only too. If you are in a densely populated area you can still get lots of hits. People will drive a long way to pick up heavy stuff. |
