  2. Swapped the 250 GB drive for a WD 500 GB in the MBP. Quick and easy and now more room for music. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. My girlfriend had the same reaction. In fact, she dissed the iPad to others. Then she tried one while waiting for me to try out the MBP. Now she wants one. Bad. And the 13" MBP is nice too. I bought one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. New 13" MacBook Pro. My first Mac and so far I'm quite happy.

  10. Condolences Old Pa. I'm having afternoon breakfast. Chorizo tacos with fried egg, onion and cilantro followed by bacon and eggs with grits, thick cut bacon and a bacon fat fried egg. And beer. Also. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Stay safe.
  12. That should be workable. If we see enough interest I can check with the Floyds and see about reserving a space for us. If response is real big maybe private party status. I'll get the details in either case. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  14. Just had a lentil and beet salad (with sherry vinegar, preserved lemon and arugula) followed by pork belly ( with Napa cabbage kimchi, lime, kimchi and ham broth). Tasty!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Works for me. We'll have to see how many are interested and the timeframes. Any night works but Friday and Saturdays can be a bitch to get in. The place is very small. Luckily my alcoholism has made me a regular so I might be able to set up some special arrangements. The food menu has some regular items and quite a few changeable items depending on the chef's mood. And the beer menu will have 6 to 10 of Three Floyds' own beers, 6 to 8 guest drafts and probably 20 or so guest bottled beer. And Pabst Blue Ribbon in cans.
  16. Oh, that's a given. The food is awesome and the beer... Ah, the beer... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  24. Just had an excellent meal at a local Middle Eastern restaurant named Aladdin Pita. To start off they bring Pita and four different accoutrements - Baba Ghannoug, Hummus, Turkish Salad (onion, garlic, tomatoes, cilantro, tomato puree with salt pepper and cumin) and Arabian salad (cucumber, tomatoes, parsley and fresh mint dressed with lemon juice and olive oil). I could have stopped there. The salads were so fresh and flavorful and the hummus was the best I've ever had. We then had a plate of Falafel and tahini sauce. For main course I had Fasulia which is a green bean stew with lamb and basmati rice on the side. It was in a wonderfully spiced tomato sause with two large lamb shanks so tender the meat just pulled away from the bone with a fork. Deb had Chicken Biryani, basmati rice flavored with Indian spices, chicken and garnished with nuts. Both entres were excellent and more than we could finish. I ended with a Turkish coffee, strong but smooth and served in the ibrik it was brewed in. The price was amazingly good even after we added an order of the Hummus and Turkish salad plus Pita to take with us. This place has been there for years but it was the first time we had gone. It won't take me long to go back, that's for sure!
