So i went out and bought a sweet ass denim jacket last night. There's something that makes one feel kind of old when you remember denim jackets being cool, then lame and now i guess they're cool again.
I then met up with my friends at a local bar and when i walked in my friends said: "What's up Mr. 80s?" Also, there was this girl standing near me with Joan Jett hair and kind of an 80's look too.
Pointing to her, my friend Dave says to me: "Dan, if this was a Pat Benetar video, you and that girl would walk out of the bar with each other at the end of the night...after some choreographed dancing that is." Haha...but alas i wasn't really attracted to her except when the beer goggles kicked in. Funny how that happens.
I'm making some grilled portabello mushroom today with this recipe here. I hope substituting olive oil for canola oil will still turn out ok. I'm really looking forward to this...my most adventuresome meal to date. I wonder what veggies would go well with that? I'm thinking steamed carrots, colliflower, and broccoli.
UPDATE--the best part of the dinner was the steamed veggies. If i make that recipe again, i should use less vinegar...particularly in light of the fact that i don't like vinegar. Also, i have a lunch date with Carrie tomorrow. Mad Mex...i figure i'll have the veggie toquitos as those things are AWESOME! Wish me luck.
Well i'm out like a fat kid in dodgeball. Peace

Regarding what you posted about your friend having misgivings about the motives for the war and the people who sent him there, but ultimately being proud of his service-- yeah, that's pretty much what everyone I know has to say about it. So the Stockulas of the world really get to me.
Speaking of denim jackets, my friend Will had a denim vest with the word "EVIL" and two lightning bolts crudely drawn on the back in Magic Marker. It made people run for cover.
