  1. 42 and I've had more than I can remember over the last 2 years (ulcerative colitis).  Back in the versed days, I made a sport of staying conscious and following along on the screen.  Once we entered the propofol era, unpossible.  

    the prep sucks but not as bad as the first couple of times.

    Any of y'all been to a game at Azteca?  Thinking of going... probably hire a driver to take us there and wait.

    Didn't go to Azteca but Mrs. Laz and I caught Cruz Azul v. Tigres at the Estadio Azul last October.  It was allsome.  Ordering tickets was a little wonky.  Had to go through ticketmaster and buy tickets, then pay an additional fare when I picked the tickets up.  It wasn't much.  And I will save you the trouble we had trying to locate "la ventana de los boletos."  It's called "la taquilla"

  3. In the last month or so I've read both Hero of the Empire (Churchill) and River of Doubt (T. Roosevelt) by Candace Millard.  Both were so awesome I'm considering giving Destiny of the Republic (Garfield) a shot.  I seem to recall River of Doubt being discussed on that other board.  Absolutely insane.

    Never had it happen. Hell, I've been wade fishing a lot and never even seen it happen to anyone else. Like you, I switched to the Styrofoam ring/mesh fish basket thing many years ago but even when I still used a stringer it never happened to me or around me that I know of. I probably just need to fish more. I've had plenty of small sharks cruise by me in shallow water but never a big one.

    I saw this happen to my law partners as a young lad literally my first time wadefishing in Galveston.  Had a nice speckled trout on the stringer, shark took his share.  Trout was no longer a keeper

    Caesar salad dressing. 

    Only a few ingredients:  mayo, olive oil, lemon juice, black pepper, anchovy paste, Worcestershire, Dijon, and freshly grated Parmesan.  

    close, but the master would say you are lacking garlic and one egg yolk (1/2 credit for the mayo)

    Going to T Rex for first time Friday night and I'm looking forward to it.

    It's spectacular.  I have also heard T Rex has a private, speakeasy type bar around the corner for patrons awaiting tables.  I haven't been, but it might be worth getting there early to figure it out. 

  7. We have had ozarka delivery at the house for years.  We've been through 2 or 3 coolers during that period.  Usually, they spring a leak after a couple of years, we call, Ozarka delivers a new one.  

    Last night we came home from a late dinner and the house had a strong burning chemical odor.  Walk in the kitchen, and the damn cooler has lost its mind.  It is on the verge of boiling, has cooked off most of the water left in the bottle, and melted the bottle and part of the top of the unit.  

    Have subsequently come to discover that the water cooler's steady plot to destroy the American landscape is known 

    Still not sure how long we had left before the house burned down.  Glad it didn't.
