  1. before wendy's it was called the garden grill.  then they outsourced food services to sodexho, closed down the tavern, sold off pieces to people like wendy's.  there used to be a big party at the beginning of every fall semeseter in the union.  i cant remember what it was called.  it was wall to wall party in the union.  about 20 bands would play, and i bet 100 kegs were consumed.  it was crazy.

    I got my pump and a few other goodies yesterday, water test kit, bigger bottle of water conditioner, some bacteria. I've spent the evening so far dry fitting the pump, cutting lines to length, just generally laying things out and deciding where they'll go. If everything goes according to plan I'll fill the tank and start the cycling process tomorrow. I reckon once I have that going it will probably be a couple of weeks before I do much else to it.

    I've decided I'm going to go with black diamond blasting sand for substrate, it's only $8 for 50 lbs at Tractor Supply. Being that it's an abrasive I do wonder if it will be harmful to something like loaches. Whatever, at that price I can rip it out and put in something a bit more gentle if need be.

    i used to use blasting sand in the majority of my aquariums.  it was from texas, and cheap as shit, but it wasn't black.   it was dirty and needed to be rinsed first, but it was nothing like that.  that is some dirty sand.  you need to drain your tank, take it out to the backyard and run the hose in it, running your hands through the gravel until the water is clear.  do not put fish in it until the water is clear.  there could be something harmful in that silt.

    why not hire them to fix the potholes? Build more roads? 

    trump is going to make Canada fix our potholes.  and they're going to pay for it too.

  4. trump starts a trade war with china.  munchin came out just this week and said "trade war with china is on hold".  trump holds a press conference to say talks with north korea are cancelled.  then the next week says they are back on.   what the fuck is going on up there?  it's like a high school government class is running our country.

    As a libertarian/Austrian aside for the little guy who wants to take any small part in Tbtf comeuppance, put a little bit of your money in Bitcoin every month. It’s a long term investment that will take some of your money out of the legacy financial system where it can’t be used/abused. 

    Goddammit, if I hear one more republican claim they are a libertarian, all the while voting for republican candidates, I'm going to blow a gasket.   You're a fucking republican you moron.

    When you are an uneducated person who reads nothing but garbage all day long, it's no surprise that you begin to spew excrement once that garbage fully infects your brain.

    are you talking about trump?  this does explain a lot.  thanks.

    People order Jack when they have no idea what they want. 

    To this day, I have no idea why Jack was Sinatra's brand. I guess he didn't like scotch? 

    It's not my brand but you'd probably appreciate it more if you toured the factory.  takes 5 days for the distillate to percolate through the charcoal stack.  it violates the definitions so is not a legal bourbon,  but those 5 days in charcoal are akin to 5 years in barely charred new oak barrels.  

    i came across this bottle at king liquor, on burnet, call Austonian. their marketing schtick was why new oak? that's not sustainable. so they reused bourbon barrels.  sounded interesting and ecologically conscious so I gave it a try.  tasted about what you would expect.  like soggy wood.  

    anyway, jack daniels is like budweiser.  it's more the history than the product.  it's what they've done for this country, the economy, what we are known for.  the people they've employed, the events they've sponsored.  

  8. dom was agonizing over who to take to final over donathan, laurel, and angela.  he chose poorly.  angela would have surely voted for him over wendell.  not sure if donathan would have.  either way when it came down to laurel picking the winner he knew he was toast.  there was no way in hell she was picking him over wendell.

    false and dumb. the 8 pc  is $24, right there on the menu, and it comes with 3 sides. and it's way better than Popeyes. cmon man.

    popeye's is have that. and no, t22 is not that much better or that much hotter even.  it's good, don't get me wrong, and for sure better than popeyes.  and another thing, popeye's sides are better.  their biscuits, their red beans and rice, their dirty rice.  way better sides than t22.
