  1. After 5+ days of fever, I went to the ER Saturday. I tested positive and they also found a spot on my lung they said is inconsistent with covid. My pulse ox was at 95, so they didn’t keep me. The fever is still here after a week, but starting to stay down. I do feel very winded just making short walks from one room to the next and haven’t felt like eating in about 3 days. I’m isolating at home alone and just trying to keep fluids in and rest. Thankfully no one I was around recently is showing symptoms.

  2. I’ve been battling a fever for 2 days and keep taking ibuprofen and vitamin c like everyb3-4 hours. The fever will not turn. It’s been as high as 102, but seems to average around 100. Yesterday I had a headache like I’ve never had before. It felt like a sinus headache. Still have sense of taste and smell. No throat ache and only a little bit of a runny nose.

  3. SIAP. I enjoy watching Mark Rober sometimes. He's a former Apple engineer that designs different devices. He's the one that designed the glitter/fart spray bomb for porch pirates. Also helped design this trampoline that they dropped a car on from the how ridiculous tower. Skip ahead to 11:35 to see car drop.

     

     

     

     

  4. Dave was on the Joe Rogan podcast for a little bit with Donnell Rawlings (Ashy Larry) last week. Said he’s hoping to park it in Austin for a few weeks later this month or after the first of the year. Can’t remember where in the podcast he said it, but I think it was towards the end.

  5. Had a mini Thanksgiving with my kids last night before they go back to their Mom's today. Since they already had 1 traditional meal with their grandparents, we went slightly off course with:

    Ham

    Roasted Potatoes

    Asparagus

    rolls

    Cheesecake

    Having a more traditional meal tomorrow with the GF(no pics) and a few friends

    I'm smoking a turkey on the WSM

    Dressing (using my late Grandmother & Mom's recipe similar to NMAS' recipe in the dressing thread)

    Mashed Potatoes

    Green Bean Casserole

    Sweet Potatoes

    Chess Cake (also my grand mother's recipe)

    Pumpkin Pie

    This looks bad. Real bad. 

    Just finished the free episode, not worth paying for premium to see more. Definitely brought back the cheesiness of the original with 4th wall breaks, etc.

    I think there are a lot of alcoholics like you where the ability to either pick up or not pick up the first drink isn't really the issue. The impossible part is finding control or power after taking that first drink. 

    This was something else that came up last night - I am not powerless over taking that first drink or making the decision to not drink. At least not while I'm working my program. But as soon as that first one goes down we are right back to step 1 (literally, here) and all bets are off. 

    (But that is my interpretation of the first step - and a different interpretation than the one I had coming in. I used to think powerless meant "I am incapable of not drinking". There are plenty of people in AA that might disagree with my sentiment)

    Probably describes most of us. I could not drink when I needed to (at work or when I had my kids, certain events), but once that first drink goes in, all bets are off until I'm passed out, cut off, or out of money. Last Call was the absolute worse phrase I could hear and would send me into a panic.

    I do ours in the WSM and have followed the Franklin video method.  Really easy on the WSM.  Charcoal, wood, empty water pan.  Run all lower vents and top vent wide open.  Put it in a foil pan when the breast hits about 150 F, or so.  Slather with butter, and cover with foil until the breast temp hits 160.  I leave the skin on and it has been just right. 

    That's my plan and will probably just hit it with salt and pepper, considered doing the Tony's injection, but will probably keep it simple this go round and just do the 24 hour brine.

  9. I've been binging the last few weeks and am enjoying it so far. I'm through the first few episodes of season 4 (trinity killer) it definitely has some cheesey moments, but that's expected for shows like this. 

  10. This has been my daily timewaster/entertainment source for several years. I feel like there are a lot of like-minded guys here and because of this place, I've found new movies, music, TV shows, restaurants, meals, and other random products Met a few fellow posters in person a couple of times too.
