Sazerac
Everyone seemed to like the Sazeracs last night so I figured I'd post the recipe just in case anyone else wants to try. If you look around you'll find several variations, but this is how I've been making them ( Read more... ) -
new toys
I've been on a bit of a retail therapy kick recently which means I have a few new toys.
I've owned a Garmin Nuvi 350 since they first came out. I paid over $800 for it if that gives you any idea what an early adopter I was. I love it, but the power button is flaky and it sometimes needs to be reset a few times before it works right. So after much ( Read more... ) -

I'm really getting into cooking "real" food (i.e. anything not made on the barbecue). Tonight there were only 9 people over for dinner which is actually kind of nice since we all fit at the main table (it seats 12). I made "Pasta with Caramelized Onion Trio, Arugula, and Mozzarella" and "Broccoli and Cheese Soup". Just a double batch of each ( Read more... ) -

Not sure if I'll dye it again before the holidays but it's nice to keep the ultra conservative side of my family guessing about me ( Read more... ) -
weekend update
I went to the DJ Jason Lee CD release party on Friday at Chez Herbst and had a great time. Great music and a bunch of Stargaze folks I haven't seen in a long time. I set up my Redline Beambox and my original starfield generator laser shows which people really seemed to like. Jason's techno set was excellent and Radley's late night / sunrise ( Read more... ) -
Things are looking up
I can't imagine anyone wanting the job Obama just got. He does seem like the kind of person who will find a way to make things better without splitting the country any more than it already is. It is just incredibly strange to me how polarized the people in this country are. While I doubt many republicans will listen to him, McCain's concession ( Read more... ) -
I feel dirty
but I have 5 bars now...
I bought one of these. I hate that I am paying to improve Sprint's infrastructure, but it works amazingly well and since my only real complaint with Sprint is the shitty coverage at home, it's not a bad deal. The repeater I bought a few years ago cost 3 times as much and barely made any improvement (and has been powered off ( Read more... ) -
