  1. The girlfriend bought me a Le Creuset Cassadou for my birthday a few weeks ago, and I’ve been dying to break it in, so tonight was braised short ribs. first, the pan.. Now on to the meal. First the mise en place sear off the short ribs (these are the boneless ones from H-E-B, which I think is actually chuck roast) once you get a nice crust on your meat, set aside and add your mirepoix and aromatics and soften the veggies… once they soften a bit, add two tablespoons on tomato paste and mix well with the veggies then deglaze the pan with 2 cups of decent red wine. (I used a cab from Constantino winery) and two cups of beef stock. I let it boil a few minutes to cook off some of the alcohol, scrape the bottom well to get all the fond from the bottom of the pan, and add the short ribs 4ish hours later…
  2. Ferrari powered cars having a bad day
  3. I was at the game sitting right in front of the replay official 15 rows up. During the impossibly long review of the KSU fumble CDC was on the sideline right in front of them, staring right at them and on his phone. I’m sure it was unrelated, but in my imagination he was telling someone at the Big 12 office they better get this fucking call correct.
  4. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t shut it down to prepare for the draft before the season’s over. They’ve got nothing to play for.
  5. Another former SEAL covering himself in shit in civilian life.
  6. I'd love to know the outcome of those ATACMS strikes. Just to understand the targets they are prioritizing.
  7. Was it Tubb's wife that killed someone in a DWI wreck in Lubbock that got swept under the rug?
  8. Or he's been told to say that by whoever put him up to this. I don't believe for a second that jug-eared fuck came up with this all on his own.
  9. If the Dr responds "Sir, this is an Arby's", ask him his Surly handle.
  10. That shit got me a couple years ago. Ended up buying a 6 pack on Amazon and replacing all of them at once.
  11. When I used to work in Louisiana a lot, we would host two big guided trips a year for customers. We worked with a well known guide in Hopedale that had a lodge* where we would stay the night before. We had a guy on the team that catered crawfish boils on the weekends, so if they were in season he would do a big boil the night before or we'd do a shrimp and crab boil or something. We usually had 5 boats with 3 anglers per boat. I'd always tell the guide I didn't live there, and he could release my fish. Without fail, they would ignore me and keep my limit as well. I'd always give my filets to my customers, but it kind of pissed me off just getting straight up ignored like that. Those guides were something. You weren't on a time limit, you were on a boat limit. The second the last fish of the boat limit hit the cooler, they were cranking the big motor and pointing it at the boat barn. I don't think we ever fished past about 10:30 AM. You'd be at the dock with them cleaning fish by 11:00, and their afternoon charters would start showing up as they were handing you your bags of filets. I'm sure they did the same thing with their afternoon groups. *The "Lodge" was two 4 bedroom double-wides up on stilts with a concrete pad between them with a covered roof and a couple gas grills.
  12. I'd believe they "Destroyed" 4,788 HIMARS rockets by slamming into them with Russian vehicles, tanks, and troops.
  13. It's good to see the Republicans learned their lessons about electing shady grifters to positions of power after the 2016 election...
  14. A land-grant college or university is an institution that has been designated by its state legislature or Congress to receive the benefits of the Morrill Acts of 1862, 1890, and 1994. The original mission of these institutions, as set forth in the first Morrill Act, was to teach agriculture, military tactics, and the mechanic arts as well as classical studies so members of the working classes could obtain a liberal, practical education. As most of us know, Texas A&M is the land grant college for the State of Texas. In many states it's the school with "State" in the name, like Louisiana State, or Ohio State. Any guesses on the Land Grant college for the State of New York? Yep, you guessed it...It's Cornell. So there you have it...Cornell is the aggy of the Ivy League.
