  1. lamb ribs are good. done the same. usual just black pepper and salt and things are delightful

    one thing you can do is greek style kleftiko. its fucking excellent on the pit.

    - lamb shanks

    - put into tightly wrapped foil

    - only salt, pepper, oregano, a little olive oil, a little lemon, nothing else. 

    - put off the side and let sit for 3 or 4 hours. maybe 225 at the most indirect temp

    so not really smoking it per say, but indirect cooking it and the slight flavor you get from the pit is outstanding. love me some kleftiko. super easy and the texture and taste are outstanding. you are looking for a melt/breakdown of the cartilage and grizzle almost completely. don't add liquid or some other stupid shit that online recipes say. having it dry to start is what you want and fat will give you some liquid as it cooks. you can direct cook it at the end for a sec to maybe add some color and more flavor if you want. usually i don't even need to.

    Fort Ticonderoga is a restored star fort at the southern end of Lake Champlain that was pivotal in the American Revolution. I love that shit.

    Montreal seems to check all of the boxes in your "Likes" but seems to check all of the boxes in your "Dislikes as well, so...

    thats the issue my tissue

    but yeah prob going to Montreal. Wondering if that border crossing is crowded, slow, etc. 

    Thanks for the note on that Fort. Love that type of thing too. Will look into it. 

  3. alright assholes. I have a weekend in upstate NY - close to the Vermont border, just north of Albany. I have a car. WTF am I supposed to do with myself. Weather looks like assholes. 

    Drive to Montreal is the answer I think.  3 something hours. Not sure if the Canadian border patrol will rape us though.

    Syracuse? Burlington? WTF. Its all nature shit and its rainy and cold. Like not cold enough for snow at lower elevations, but just mud. 

    Likes: food, booze, French things, museums, culture, booze

    dislikes: driving long distances, boredom, rain, border patrol agents, circus folk

    help me panic please, thanks

    The fucking nerve of this guy. 

    Trump is such a viciously cruel person that he fucking MOCKS people on boats trying to help during Harvey? I guess I shouldn't be surprised that such a spineless, dickless, heartless fraud is flummoxed by the desire to help and come to the aid of one's neighbor. 

    Fucking clown.

     

    are you surprised?

    a long ass thread of continual outrage. not sure why honestly. i mean we already know these things about him and his ilk. for how long now? eh. don't let it get to you man. 

    have a good tuesday my Gs. 

  5. jesus. just talked to my mother who 'won't vote because she hates both candidates and thinks beto is too radical left'. WTF. old people watching TV and these idiotic hateful adds. 

    my mother is a new england liberal for fuck sake and things beto is too radical left. 

    any good resources that compare and discuss candidates and their views? something i can send her? thanks for any tips.

    we are in a civil war folks. logic and thinking lost a long fucking time ago.  this country is diseased. 20 years rolling saying the same thing - the fucking system is the enemy. its needs to die before we all do. voting in a few democrats ain't changing shit. 

    have a good monday friends. no nukes yet today. hope to at least make it to whiskey o'clock radiation free.

    i hate what are country is becoming / has become.

    the thing that you have to remember here is that you can't rationalize with any of these people. 

    and this thread marches on past 650 pages of outrage

    try to talk about freedom of the press to a Trump supporter. go ahead, have at it. bring a fuckload of patience and get comfy with giving the fuck up. these people are wounded animals incapable of rational thought or civil exchange. 

    have a nice friday my friends. no game this weekend, but also no nukes. enjoy it

    Only thing that helps is it's homecoming and a night game.  If this were not homecoming and an 11 a.m. game, I'd expect about 40k.

    But yeah... I'm not expecting anything other than what we've seen the past few weeks.  If the defense plays moderatly well, the offense will suck. If the offense is good, the defense will suck.  The special teams will suck except FG kicking.  And we'll have a shit-ton of backbreaking penalties.  Wheeeeeeeeeee!

    Orlando is a master at adjusting, but i always wonder what they did to prepare all week. It feels like he tells the D all week, we'll just go out and play whatever and then we'll see what the offense is doing and adjust. I know that's not what's happening but it is a little frustrating. 

    not just all week but what about the fucking offseason. clearly have a problem with game 1 period - top to bottom - and thats on Herman and the culture he is creating. 

    the slow starts on defense in every game seems eerily parallel to me. 

    not sure its scheme or attention, but some kind of tightness and hesitancy that the coaching style of putting on/into the players minds.
