  1. yessir.  very much so, sir.  

    this was my setup for watching the game, last night:  the intake for the air purifier strategically positioned.  could have pointed it at the tv and been better off.

  2. I started with this recipe, but with a more curry powder, and a whole lot less honey--like maybe a 1/4tsp, at the most.

    I also don't mix it in a separate container.  I just buy a smaller bottle of our usual and squirt some out into the existing family-size bottle of the same, to make room for the additives.  I then use a funnel to feed the adds as a slurry, stir it with a chopstick or something, then shake the shit out of it.  takes a day or two to settle in and taste right.

    what's funny to me is she's trying to replicate Hela off-the-shelf curry ketchup.  but I'd never had it until I stumbled upon it somewhere, after having made my own a few times.  the Hela stuff was disgusting.  part of it may be the too-sweetness, but it might also be the ketchup base they use, which everyone has their own favorite.

    in the process, I figured out how to make my own Hut's hickory sauce, which I think is just ketchup with some liquid smoke and worcestershire.  but I mess with that, too, as my memory changes.

    LOL, my dad-instincts immediately kicked in before I even read the tweet. Saw mom lazily pushing them and my brain immediately went to "I bet you could pick up some wicked speed pushing it from the middle".

    6 seconds.  6 seconds between putting my car in reverse and putting in park, dead center of the parking spot.

    Anyone who identifies as male should instinctively know how to back into a parking spot on the first try.

    I work from home.  my workspace is a recliner in the corner of the living room, at the base of the stairs up to the master bedroom.  

    was  waiting for the system to finish running something and didn't want to get on some other task and fuck both up, so I leaned over and poked around on the ipad for a bit.  in this tilted position, I faced the point of decision:  should I push a bad position or...?

    Spoiler

    I jumped up  and moved quickly but carefully up the stairs, with The Right Stuff running down my legs.  stepped straight into the shower, rinsed myself, my shorts, and waffle-stomped the evidence.

    fortunately:  a) I had a load of laundry about ready to go, anyway  b)  I didn't get any on the recliner c)  my daughter wasn't awake yet when it all went down.

    unfortunately:  when I came downstairs, I saw there was about a 3in puddle of chunky soup on the floor, just in front of said recliner.

    I got it cleaned up just before daughter came into the room.

  6. after much blood, sweat, mail order parts and beers, I finally got the 12sp dialed.  took it to cat today.  first time there in a while.  50T got me up the hill, where I promptly punctured the rear on a rocky landing.  

    my tire went all Ron Swanson:  give me all the bacon and Stan's you have.  literally.

    so I cut the ride short.  

    just as well.  ended up having a perfect day of sailing up on Buchanan.  pretty steady 17kt wind, surfing the SW swells on the way back, just skimming along.  hiked all the way out, dragging the sheet hand in the water.  wife blowing up my phone, inaudible in the dry bag, wondering if I'm ok.  fuck yeah, I am.
