Is our GB Guster missing? Also, SLB2?

There's real time YSR-like updates on his FB page. He's eating lunch right now at an American (New) restaurant.What the hell is New American cuisine?

What does this mean?

In theory its regional American or ethnic food prepared in more modern, light ways with emphasis now on local, fresh ingredients. It can include molecular or decomposed dishes. Whatever it is, its a little smaller and more expensive than the old restaurant down the street serves.In reality its a new restaurant with current high rents and furnishings and staff that cannot make any money serving old American cuisine at the current prices, so they call it new, change it up and modernize it a little bit and charge 40-70% more then the older places locked in on cheap rent, paid for furnishings and family/slave labor.

Thanks for explaining the part that wasn't bolded.

I know rite? Was that some sort of "where's my iphone" kind of joke?

Yea, like the bad businessman I am, I gave him a replacement.

On inkjets? Tell them to pound bricks. There is an expiration right on the thing. I've never had somebody give me trouble on inkjets. I'll usually give a partial credit on laser cartridges since most don't go bad and I can find somebody willing to buy an old one dirt cheap. FWIW

Hey jeep

I'M READY TO START DRINKING NOW BUT I HAVE A STUPID JOB

I have a rehearsal dinner tonight or I would start drinking now. I haven't had a drink, smoke or gash since last Saturday. I'm like Tweek from South Park.

I'M IN PITTSBURGH

So two days after I move, THAT'S when you come within drinking distance of Youngstown. Nice.

That's how I stay alive

Right. Wait, what?

Just out of curiosity are crawfish really worth it? Isn't there a lot of work involved for just a tiny bit of meat? I'm asking because I don't eat crawfish.

No.

They aren't worth it if you have to clean them but you can buy just the tails and they are delicious.

If you were wondering where I've been, , well:

I got my robot vacuum cleaner Tuesday. This thing is so awesome. I call it Carrie.

I worked all day yesterday and hurriedly cut the grass before it got dark. I didn't have time to eat all day. See my previous post about the things I've been lacking all week, add and empty stomach and you get this: My link I rush into the shower and imagine how awesome the teriyaki smoked salmon in the fridge is going to taste. I turn the shower off and Mrs. SLB runs into the bathroom "I NEED YOU UPSTAIRS NOW!!!11!ONE!" I run upstairs naked and there is smoke pouring from a light fixture. Mrs. SLB is hysterical. I ask her if she turned it off and she says yes. Fortunately the fixture in question is right next to an attic access panel so I grabbed a ladder (after putting some shorts on) and checked it out. Looked fine to me. Mrs. SLB then says she doesn't know if she turned it off or not. I killed it from the panel and I'm currently waiting for the electrician. Mrs. SLB broke her arm patting herself on the back for saving the house from burning down. Oh yeah, DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I'VE TOLD HER AND THE BOYS TO TURN THIS ####### LIGHT OFF??!!!! IT'S ON ALL NIGHT AS A NIGHT LIGHT, THEN ADD RIDDLED MRS. SLB "DOESN'T NOTICE" IT ON!! SO THAT LEAVES THE ONLY PERSON WITH BAD KNEES, AND A JOB, TO TURN IT OFF EVERY DAY. THAT'S IF I'M ACTUALLY HOME FROM WORK BEFORE THE SUN GOES DOWN. YEAH!!! GREAT FOR YOU NOTICING THE LIGHT WAS SMOKING INSPECTOR CLOUSEAU!! Yes she got upset with me. Oh freaking well. I finally got to eat around 9 last night. I could have gotten laid but was exhausted. That's bad.

One of the gals I did the MS Walk with last year posted a picture of her and a guy I know on FB. He works for the Cardinals and bought my Grandparents house (that we were living in) back in 78. I posted "Jack XX" right? Great guy." Turns out that is her Dad. Whoa. The last time I saw her before the Walk was back in 78, I think she was 4. Blows my mind.

I gave Cal the nickname "Cool Cat Cal" or "Triple C" and Dylan "Big D" a few weeks ago. Dylan now talks in the third person like Jimmy from Seinfeld. "Hey Dad, did you know Big D can do a cart wheel?" I've corrected him a couple of times but it hasn't done any good. Not sure how long I'm going to let this go on

Carry on.

Thoughts on potential FB schitck of modifying rock lyrics into sounding like a bible verse and posting it on my status attaching a "Matthew 4:25" to it...just to see how many "likes" I'd get from my jebus loving friends.For example (just grabbed the first pearl jam lyric that came to mind...would have to try to find a better one):

He came back down 'cause he wanted to share, His key to the locks on the chains he saw. But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed by a faceless men, well; He still stands.Matthew 4:15

Thats what I was thinking. Seems like a bunch of angry old farts that don't understand what it is so they want to see it fail. As an advertiser, I love Facebook. Nobody can touch them for being able to hit a demographic profile.

 

[kevzilla]

Both the boys are taking naps. Angrywife and her mom are shopping. Think it's time to start drinking. And maybe shooting. FIL is bought into the whole Glen Beck society is on the verge of collapse thing in Texas, so there's a nice collection of firearms around the house.

Every night I make a bunch of baseball bets, pour myself a vodka and sit and watch the MLB Mix, drilling down to games at critical points. When I look at it from the outside it seems like a rut, but from inside, it feels like I'm living the dream.
