Well 16 inches of rain in a week left me with 3 inches of water in my basement yesterday. I am still trying to get it all cleaned up. This totally sucks. But on the good side I did not lose much of value other than a computer power supply for my work laptop.
Anyway the clean up continues and we should be finished sometime...

Thanks Melk. I have been think about you and sending my good thoughts your way.
In honor of my 42nd birthday, I have decided to recreate on Earth that intragalactic favorite, the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. As you know this is the famous drink from The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. However since the required ingredients are somewhat scarce on Earth, I had to improvise.

alyss:
that sounds terrible, but I'd try it 
stoothman:
Actually I was surprised when I tried it. It is not half bad. I also went and grab some premixed Long Island Ice Tea mix from the store and used that, since that is what I based it on. And it was pretty good as well.
Ok, kids, time for another recipe. This is one I make from time to time so I can have a good breakfast all week.

that jammer comment is funny because I have been thinking about it, and you are SOO right, jammers get ALL the glory! I just always preferred to block because there is so much more to it, as a blocker you have to be defense AND offense sometimes at the same time, also I seem to direct the game play, and start each strategy ..whereas jammers just race and go through the pack without much thought. plus we have an abundance of jammers right now, all 20 years old (except for our best one Killson) and to try to compete with them for a spot seems like it would suck hahaha
In honor of Cinco De Mayo, the real story behind the holiday.
Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England.
In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York.
This would...

Hello Everyone,
Long time no see. I have been busy with work and life and everything else.
But to make it up to you all I am going to share this recipe I made last night. It is incredibly yummy and possibly the best desert I have ever had.

Even more amusing is she was driving with her ex-husband to meet her new boyfriend.

EW what!?
I do so hate traveling. It always reminds me of what is wrong with this country.
mizoo:
Aw....traveling generally makes me feel really good about this country. Also, makes me feel better about Alabama, because there are ignorant and mis/under-educated people everywhere as it turns out.
stoothman:
Actually Mizoo, much less about the people and more about our culture. Flying always seem to expose the worst things about our country, like the paranoia and fear that the very presence that TSA (Terminally Stupid Agency) creates. The anything to squeeze consumers a little more attitudes of the airlines. It all makes for an unpleasant time flying. But I always have a good time once I get there. It is just the there and back again part that drives me up a wall.
Since today is my "Friday" this week, time for something fun.
Two of the ladies who are the "backup singers" are from another great band called Trip The Van, you should definitely check them out.
A kick ass show in NY featuring Big D and the Kids Table and Westbound Train on March 20th.
