I don't remember having received my invitation. Address must have gotten lost.Mr. krista4 assures me that it is actually OK to invite every person we know in Memphis over for a crab/shrimp/crayfish boil and that he can handle all that cooking. I don't see any way this could possibly go wrong.
Lot of that going around.GM, it's in October--when will you be passing through this area? 
Don't worry Hawks64, he isn't talking about you.But your first thought when you do something should always be "Should this go in the thread about nothing??"
Went to college to be an architect, came out a structural engineer. I always print in all CAPS as well. Although even with that my wife has a hard time reading it sometimes.That's what I do...ALL CAPS as well.
Preach on sister.
I have several aunts, uncles, and cousins in Memphis, so I count.Just had this conversation with my wife.[News talking about the Bears upcoming game on Monday]Wife: Do the Bears play on Sunday?Me: This upcoming Sunday?Wife: YeahMe: No, they play on MondayWife: So they play on Monday Night Football?Mr. krista4 assures me that it is actually OK to invite every person we know in Memphis over for a crab/shrimp/crayfish boil and that he can handle all that cooking.

In her defense, she is 36 weeks pregnant, and has been on bedrest for the last two weeks so she is getting cabin fever.
Both excellent places to raise kids. IMO.Flying out to Seattle next week for an interview with a a good gig for a company everyone has heard of. This one has just felt like it was going to happen right from the start. One more round to go and Drifter is hitting the northwest with a not yet 2 year old and a not quite yet newborn. Oh and did I mention I just bought the house I'm in last summer?

Funny how that happens...I went into the airforce to be a fighter pilot, but ended up in college doing aerospace engineering, which turned to mechanical engineering, which turned to teaching, which derailed into working at an underground club as a bouncer/bartender/blackjack dealer, which further derailed into being a pizza baker, turned to restaurant/bar owner, which turned to highschool math teacher, which turned into roadie work, which turned into TV shows, which ended up turning into computer consultancy, which turned into running a company, which turned into crap...
How's it going? You said your company turned into crap? Economy do you in?You still in Houston?
That was the company in Sweden... Economy didn't do it, well, maybe kind of, the financial backer decided to roll his Audi S8 about 5,000 times when the road turned, and he didn't.Still in Houston, but I'm getting itchy to move...How's it going? You said your company turned into crap? Economy do you in?You still in Houston?
Thanks.Aaron, congrats!
Good stuff. Whatever else happens, be sure to post it here.
Damn, that's a tough story. I loooove the S8.That was the company in Sweden... Economy didn't do it, well, maybe kind of, the financial backer decided to roll his Audi S8 about 5,000 times when the road turned, and he didn't.Still in Houston, but I'm getting itchy to move...How's it going?

I know... it's such a shame... that car was nice.Damn, that's a tough story. I loooove the S8.That was the company in Sweden...

Sorry to hear that GB.Thanks for running that WC pool this summer. You gonna run one for Euros?BTW, I've been watching Wallander on PBS and reading the Steig Larson books, and I can't stop thinking about you now.There seems to be a lot of weird murders in Sweden on those stories. Is that true to life? All we have here in Oakland is gang violence.
This is when you bust out the camera phone imo.
There's really only one solution here. Grab the camera. I'm just thinking of you, GB.

I haven't figured out how to get mine to not make the shutter noise. Otherwise I would totally get all sneaky and take one and not post it on the internet.
Hiding pregnancy boobs from your friends is actually a felony. Little known fact.
Not really weird, no... well, at least it didn't use to be that way. The country has turned pretty ugly the last 20-30 years. It's really bad in places.Welfare state running out of money, coupled with a horrible integration and immigration policy, coupled with socialism. Not exactly a recipe for Eutopia.
That was a great chat day!also> Jan Guillou's crusader trilogy (also a movie), the 12(?) Hamilton books / Liza Marklund / Bjorn Hellberg are all worthy of a read or two.
2 things:#1) I am exhausted and should be asleep right now, but I find myself obsessed with the goings-on in the Frosty house.#2) Bikini Frankenstein was excellent. I was watching Alien Sex Files 3 the other night and started to rub one out, however, my dog was staring me with a disapproving look on his pathetic face. He was in front of the window and the way the street light outside reflected through the window, it gave the appearance of a halo over the dog's head. There was no way I could rub one out with the K-9 Jesus staring me down.
This is the easiest big party cooking task to pull off... provided you know how to do it in the first place. If the crowd is way large, you just add 1/3 of the original spices to the mix after the 1st batch.I think it's 1/3. Hell, put one half back in there and call people pansies if they complain.Mr. krista4 assures me that it is actually OK to invite every person we know in Memphis over for a crab/shrimp/crayfish boil and that he can handle all that cooking. I don't see any way this could possibly go wrong.
we had to switch because the banks blocked Excel... I'll send PM. Only populated during the day though.
We're moving to Belize when I check my numbers in the morning.That was the company in Sweden...

Somali pirates likely to blame for ruining my Swedish conquest dream.
I wasn't sure why people were saying congrats, but that wasn't what I expected.My condolences.earlier, I was amazed that YSR was posting immediately following a car accident, but then I realized that I'm in here reading and posting while on a plane headed to Australia to celebrate my honeymoon.

Good plan.He definitely knows how to cook this stuff, and like you he said it would be the easiest thing to cook for a large group. I started to think it sucks that he will be cooking all the time and not get to entertain and see people, but then I remembered he doesn't like people anyway.
weak.
