Another cooking question. I bought the beef short ribs yesterday and they were packed in the plastic container. I waited too long to cook them today so I'll have to make them tomorrow. However, I had already taken them out frigerator for a short time and rinsed them in some water (the temperature was probably about room temperature... it certainly wasn't that cold). Thus they heated up a bit while before I repacked them in a paper towel and press and seal and put them back in the fridge. I am worried that this may cause them to go bad before tomorrow. Should I be concerned. They certainly smelled fine today.

Damn, just realized that this is right around the same time as Jazzfest in New Orleans. I was thinking of trying to go but I guess I'll have to wait til next year. I think it would be super awesome to have a Travel Team get together in NO during Jazzfest, maybe next year. Anyone interested?

I am curious about your opinion about using cheap wine for cooking. I am planning to make some beef short ribs tomorrow and I bought a bottle of $3 "Cul de Sac Cabernet" (probably similar to Trader Joe's 2 buck Chuck) to use. I haven't tasted it but the person at the store said it was fine for cooking. Also, a friend of mine tried it and said it was not super great but "drinkable." Do you think it makes a difference if I use a wine that I would actually *choose* to drink? Usually, I have a bottle of red wine open and pour some in the dish but since this uses a whole bottle, I thought I would save the good stuff for sipping.

I wouldn't mind some Zombie Dust and Behemoth as well. I don't suppose Houston is on the driving geodesic (is that just a math word?) to Atlanta.

That sounds like a very smart idea.

I would need a room.

Happy Birthday Grahame!

This happened again to me again. Clicked on a link to HC from google and it took me here instead. http://url4short.info/a00e9662

Happy Birthday John!!!

I suppose nobody wants to hear me complain about how it's not a Wacom digitizer.... I still may get one.... grumble grumble

^This!

Happy Birthday guys!

I can definitely tell a difference (at least in the taste tests I've done). I like Rain and Luksusowa. I should really try Chopin though.

Got a new I2S cable from Ps Audio! Also got the GS-1 upgraded modules from Justin earlier in the week! Can't wait to upgrade the GS-1 and PWD this weekend.

RIP Luvbug. Sorry for your loss Dusty. ((((hugs))))

Sorry Dusty. :( I cannot think of much more to say.

Very nice Jacob! I got a 9" Darth Vader Mill (aka Unicorn Magnus Plus) for Christmas. It is pretty damn awesome... lots of pepper per turn and easy to change it from coarse to fine.

I thought that was a subset of physics.... butI suppose there must be engineers that specialize (or have to take classes in this) in fluid mechanics. What subset of engineering would this be? Civil?

I finished watching both Seasons of Carnivale. Really wish they would have continued this series.

I've been told that I need to go to Antico Pizza the next time I am in Atlanta so I expect a trip there.

I didn't think that anyone except physics, math, and electrically engineering majors learned about tensors.

Interesting that they say it's was originally $449 here so only $50 off. Still probably a good speaker for the price. http://emotivapro.com/products/powered_monitors/airmotiv5.php

Now if only that were filled with egg, cheese, and chorizo!
