Really Boring Stuff Only II: Return of the Boredom

[STRONGBADF1]

That's going to make something else look bigger.

On a different note, while I can't see much actual use for this thing, I find myself drawn to it like a moth to a flame. Add a bottle opener to something, and now it's just cool.

Can't see a use for it???

 

[Adam]

Can't see a use for it???

For me. I don't go anywhere, so I use my bottle opener in the kitchen versus going to get my phone to open a brew. Well, that...and I don't have an iPhone.

So far it's working because I understand the plan and stick to it ... mostly stick to it.

For instance one of those ice cream drumsticks with nuts on it comes in at 35 grams of carbs. Well it turns out that that's about a meals worth of carbs for me. I could go with that and stick to the plan and still lose weight but it would be a poor choice because of it's high glycemic index. Those kinds of food choices would leave me hungry before too long and that would make sticking to the plan tough. :

I know Adwilk means well and he's proper in his analysis, but stick to what works. Every person is different.

My secretary came in with a letter to a client for me to approve and I thought someone else had designed it and said "this looks like crap"

Whoops. Feel bad. lol. She isn't a graphic designer. hehe.

I think we're more alike than different and you two are just wrong.

A lot of things are 'true' about nutrition. To make a receiver analogy I like Denon 'cause PENG likes Denon. I don't like Onkyo 'cause TLS doesn't like Onkyo. Right about now you should be wondering where I'm going with this. I like The Zone Diet cause the author's credentials are impressive.

If she's cute, single, and emotionally distraught - you know how to reach me.

"Your letter looked like crap. You know what else looks like crap? This dude. You two would get along great."

Haha. I long learned the cute secretaries never work (as soon as you train them they have kids or go on a coke binge and die).

I like old ones that have grown kids, lots of them took off work to raise kids, now they want to get back into the workplace while their husband is still working. That sort of thing. Yeah, they don't look great, but generally are smarter, wiser, and more consistant. To me, just having a well-kept, well put together secretary is enough (clean, well-spoken, etc.). Plus since people live longer and work longer now, getting a girl who's kids are grown up is like mid 50s and they can work for a long time thereafter. Also customers generally treat them with more respect and take them more seriously.

My secretary is double my age I think (I'm 26) which is perfect.

Plus so many people want the cute young secretary that the older ones have a hard time finding work, so you get really good ones. They can have the cute ones at work, I'll sleep with their cute ones on the weekend.

That's a lot of criteria ... try for female and human ... in that order.

I'm living that plan right now. Oh, yeah, almost forgot - b*stard.

I'm currently eating my first (and failed) attempt to make the cauliflower version of mashed potatoes. As I was mashing it, there was way more water coming out than I had expected (way more). I drained it off, but it makes me think that there was something missing in the recipe steps (the recipe is from a show that I recorded, so I'll watch how she made it). Thing is, although nothing like mashed potatoes in either taste or consistency, it isn't all that bad.

I'm guessing that Alex just threw up a little bit in his mouth.

He would not be the only one.

My new toy for the living room just arrived.

I've been on a bit of a kick the last few weeks after the wife opened the door for a few upgrades/changes around the house. - Full details in a few days once I'm done connecting everything.

Nice! I like that lower profile.

Errrr. I knew this was a bad place to hang out. Well, if I want to have any money left.

 

[adk highlander]

I know. They are the only ones really making decent low-profile receivers. Right now I have an old Yamaha that I took the feet off from and the blu-ray player shoved in above it with no room for ventilation. It does not have Audyessey but in our great room it is about convenience and not sound quality.

Errrr. I knew this was a bad place to hang out. Well, if I want to have any money left.

Oh buck up. All I've seen you buy lately is knifes and kitchen wares. Buy some dam electronics.

That's works well using roasted cauliflower. Even without mashing it, just add a little butter.

If that had a bottle opener on the side Adam would be all over it.

Wouldn't that hurt like h.ll?

The round ones aren't so bad.

This cauliflower is having the last laugh.

Try eating potatoes. What's wrong with potatoes?
