LOL I was unaware of this section. That's pretty funny.

Not following... ?

Only because I had the good sense to ignore the third person who replied "Hello I would like to pick up now address" at 10:30pm. ;)

Puck Daddy's Summer of Disappointment Sabres Edition

Oh hell yes on Ville... I'd already forgotten about him, lol. -
Craigslist is awesome. I replaced my fence over the weekend, and I'd had the idea to put the old wood panels on craigslist to see if anyone would take them for kindling and save me the expense of disposal. Even though firewood is expensive, I wasn't sure how much interest there would be because it was a lot (more than 8 panels) and the 6' x 8' size would be difficult to transport. So I was pleasantly surprised to have SEVEN people reply within 5 hours of posting Sunday evening. The person I contacted came by this evening and took all of it off my hands, and now I have my driveway back (and a new fence). Win-win!

This guy's solution to his squirrel problem is awesome (sorry can't figure out how to link outside of Facebook): https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=1098897793487909&set=vb.166337376743960&type=2&theater

Gat damn, weave... how big is your house?! lol

I'd posted this one in the Thursday thread originally (in response to d4rk's complaint), but Paul Bissonnette of the Coyotes went all-out with his:

LOL that's outstanding... the word alone cracks me up!

:( Sending good thoughts your way, my friend. Only you and the wife can decide what's right for your situation, and it's never an easy decision, but sometimes it's the right one. (And sometimes the other person just needs a wake-up call.) I wish you luck in figuring out how to resolve things.

Yeah, my lhasa/shih tzu mix did the same to me when he got older. That sucked, but I had a long and happy history with him before he started pulling that nonsense. This dog is only a couple (5?) years old and hasn't earned it, at least from me. I'll have to try making her sleep outside my room and see if that helps. Agree completely. Although if you're gonna participate, Bissonnette did it well:

The $3000 permanent crown that would've been the final step in replacing my tooth (something that has been around 14 months in the works) didn't fit yesterday and needs to be re-made. "Only" 2 more weeks for another one, but still. Tues. was trying a new experiment at work that took all day and was a near complete failure due to a combination of extremely poor instructions from the manufacturer and whichever a-hole decided to put empty tubes of reagent back in the fridge. And I'm stuck watching my dad's stupid dog Labor Day weekend. I love animals in general, but for this one I feel no affection. She's dumb, she sheds everywhere and barks at everyone, she chews her toenails (really!) when I'm trying to sleep, and she wants to get up at 6am every day (I normally get up at 7am during the week, but much later on the weekends). The only reason I agreed is my dad is helping me with some house repairs this weekend and I felt wrong saying no to his request, but not looking forward to it. My mom was going to visit part of that weekend from out of town and I know that stupid effing dog is just going to bark her head off and drive us crazy.

Somehow I never knew that. The man was a brilliant chameleon, and like Philip Seymour Hoffman, gone too soon. :(

Jesus. So unexpected... I knew he'd struggled with addiction but thought he'd come all the way back and was well. So sad.

:w00t: I'll never be able to un-see this now when I look at the label, hahaha.

:lol: Wow, first time ever? Green papaya salad is my friend's favorite; she always prefers raw and slightly bitter mango and papaya to the ripened stuff we'd normally eat. She's the reason I found Thai food earlier on (she's from Laos and their cuisine shares a lot of similarities with Thai). I highly recommend that cookbook if you enjoyed it... some of the recipes are more involved or require special ingredients, but many do not and are surprisingly simple to put together. Chicken with basil is another one, and there's a beef salad that's very similar in flavors to the lahp I made.

Sure thing! Let me know if you can't make out some of the text... forgot how bad this camera is!

Lol and here I thought the candied bacon is what would get everyone's attention. ;) Recipe is from Nancy McDermott's Quick & Easy Thai cookbook, attached (apologies for the low-res iPad photo). I typically use water rather than chicken stock because it's already quite salty and flavorful. The toasted rice powder is good, but in my opinion not worth the extra work. Messy, but very good with Boston Bibb lettuce as wraps, or eaten with sticky rice. I ate the leftovers tonight with shredded lettuce pieces that were too small for wraps as a salad of sorts.

Been a good weekend, food-wise. Friday night I made Thai lahp moo (essentially warm ground pork salad with lime, fish sauce, mint, shallots, and scallions), and Sat. morning I made a pretty kick-ass breakfast sandwich (not my creation) with pan-toasted sourdough, Gruyere cheese, fried egg, candied bacon, arugula, and lemon Greek yogurt sauce. Yum.

Absolutely -- love a Bulleit Rye Old Fashioned!
