  1. Went to hear Sonny Landreth Sunday night. The guy hasn't lost anything. He still kills it and is high energy.
  2. Get off our lawns! ...er...I mean get off our desert landscaping!
  3. I've been to both and prefer Costa Rica--the Caribbean side, not the Pacific. The Pacific side has too many US expats. The Caribbean side is less developed and the locals are super nice. Money also goes farther there than in the Americanized areas.
  4. It's the heat. It gets to you and bakes your brain after a while. That explains why @az_cyclistdoes double centuries and I used to do centuries on a fixie. @groupw is still new to the state, so he's probably still sitting at a reasonable medium-rare. That will change with time...

    100% agree here. Low O2 is nothing to mess with. Don't wait for Amazon. Go to the drugstore and get one right now. I know Walgreens, CVS and Walmart all have them on the shelf.
  6. Henry Ford also had the crates the engines were shipped to the factory in specifically designed so they could be broken down and reused to form the floor boards of the Model T.
  7. Diving the North Wall at Grande Cayman exceeded my expectations. We spent four days diving there. I'd been to a few other sites around the Caribbean that were cool, but none of them even starts to compare to the North Wall. The water was so clear, warm, and full of life. When we came out of the wall 100 feet down it felt like going off a cliff because the water was so clear. It truly felt like you flying. The highlight was when a group of 14 spotted eagle rays decided to circle us and check us out. They were huge and got so close, but were not the least bit aggressive. After we surfaced the divemaster said he'd never seen that many in one group before, especially large ones. He also said he'd never seen the variety of sea life we encountered over just eight dives. He said most people dive for several years before they'd seen what we did.
  8. I'm totally George. The problem with casting Jerry is that he was actually the straight man, even though he is the comedian. We don't really have a straight man here...
  9. Super lucky guess this morning. Totally not skill...
  10. I remember my dad using Beaverboard, which was pretty much the same thing as celotex, to make a temporary room divider in one of our bedrooms. It was pretty easy to put your foot through, if I remember right.
  11. This makes me smile. Eric Clapton's Brownie. His first Stratocaster. If you've heard Cream and the Layla solo, you've heard this guitar. This is the one that gave him his signature sound. We've only got it for about one more month, then this exhibit closes.
  12. I'll be roasting and restocking the freezer. I think I'm down to one pack in there right now. It also means it's time for stuffed flank steak with roasted corn and papas con chili on the side.
