  1. Last time I tried that, I couldn't even get anyone to answer me on the intercom. There is no worse drive-thru on the planet than Popeye's.
  2. Oh, that had me looking up recipes last night. Definitely making that for dinner this weekend.
  3. 2025 Stunt Turkey is on the books. Dark meat vacuum sealed and frozen for gumbo. White meat vac-sealed and frozen to give to a family we help out. Bones and carcass are going into the stock I'll make tomorrow and freeze. Drippings separated from the fat, poured over the roasted veg, and frozen to be used for the gravy. The process has begun.
  4. If you don't want to wait for the email, just login, click your picture in the upper-righthand corner of the screen. Click settings. Click updates.
  5. It's click-here and poof.
  6. It's an east Texas chain, but the burger combo at Jucy's is excellent.
  7. So, for those who plan to stick it out and just order a day pass, you can dig up the YTTV credit in the "Update" section of the Settings menu.
  8. Reminds me of my reaction to my failed pet fish experience in law school. What a week.
  9. Yeah, post up the brine and process if you don't mind. I'd love to make that.
  10. I'm learning.
  11. Well, it could be just internet, which is why I asked. I have a kid in college in Austin with a Spectrum bill and no channels to show for it.
  12. 1. It looks like a big high school game. 2. I was at a gathering with a Baylor graduate the other day. And something about Friday-night games came up, and he piped up, "Oh, yeah. They're playing a lot of games on Friday night." I smiled.
  13. Honestly, the $5 to SlingTV, which isn't Mouse-owned, on game day plus an antenna if required seems like the best/cheapest legal solution. YoutubeTV will kick a little money our way for each month it's off the table (they usually do), and it goes okay for the consumer. Yeah, it's a pain in the ass, but whatayagonnado? /shrugs
  14. Pet Semetary, Christine, The Dead Zone, not necessarily in that order.
  15. No spoilers, but The Gunslinger should be the last book in the DT series.
  16. Yes, but my creepier brain was making a joke of a sexual nature. Don't you screw up with the 2025 "My Crazy Ass Family at the Holidays" thread!
  17. My brain: What's an RJ? Creepier part of my brain: If you have to ask, big guy, you can't afford it.
  18. I loved getting those bowls, but I don't remember it coming to the table au jus. That looks delicious though, but I gotta say, the picture makes it look like some bizarre Jello salad or aspic.
  19. I got my first rice cooker my freshman year after I came home one night from a pretty good party, decided to cook a pot of rice. I passed out and didn't wake up until the whole room was full of smoke and I got up to find a meteorite of rice in the pot. I told the story to my mom (I may have left out the part where I was hammered and passed out), and a few days later, she'd sent me a rice cooker. Damned thing was analog wonder and lasted over 30 years. I've gone through two since then. Don't make 'em like they used to.
  20. I don't use the word, "Hero" much, but you, sir . . .
  21. That first sentence was unnecessary given the second sentence. And with all those services, you still can't watch the game (either Spectrum or Uverse is for cable or kids cable and you can use the ESPN app).
  22. Can you put this in more scholarly terms for me? What if I had a contract for a hand free from scarring, but, in the end, I received a hairy hand? See Tits v. McGee.
  23. Book nerd on this one.
