Went out for a quick spin on the MTB today on the trails behind my house. A neighbor pointed me to a new section, which is a hoot. Good news is that the test of the 1x10 conversion that I had done last week went without a hitch.

My 2c, I ditched my iPad nearly a year ago and rarely have looked back. About the only time I want a tablet is when I'm on a plane and it's during those brief moments when the flight staff won't allow for the use of anything other than "portable electronic devices". I've started transitioning to using my phone in those times to further eliminate the use case for a tablet and the past two times I've traveled it's worked well enough. #firstworldproblems

Happy Birthday!

Steak just came off the grill and into the oven (in the cast iron skillet). Shrimp and home-grown asparagus will go on shortly.

Happy Birthday, Brent!

RIP to Mr. Moore. Back in the day when TBS would do 7 days of 007 I would tape every one they showed and watch them until the next marathon. RIP to the victims of the Manchester bombing. Sadness beyond words.

Happy Birthday, Raffy! I hope you had a few more of those white-labeled cans kicking around.

Agreed. I saw him race live multiple times with my older brother and was a fan. Also hits close to home for someone who spends a lot of time on two wheels.

RIP Chris, his music was definitely a big part of my youth.

Happy Birthday, Chris!

Worst car - 1989 VW Fox - 2dr, 4spd manual. It was underpowered to begin with and the 4spd was spaced too far and it was dangerous to merge on the highway. Top it off with a shagged suspension that made it handle like dogshit and it was a perfect storm of terrible.

Happy Birthday!

This.

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday!

Sadly I've been traveling way too much for work so far this year to pull this off.

This.

Way to stick to the essentials. Don't forget whiskey.

Happy Birthday! I guess I am both early and late in this wish, which may qualify as double fail. I'm kind of hoping, given your love of maths, that you'll permit averaging which paints me in a much better light.

Probably not "new" for a lot of folks around here but I stumbled upon Best Coast on Sirius recently.

I may be a total newb to this but I'm always leery of the "one size fits none" conundrum. If you want a smoker, get a dedicated smoker. What makes a smoker work well does not seem conducive to what makes a good grill. What I mean is that one is designed to very accurately hold low temps over long period while producing aromatic smoke and the other is generally going to be used at temperatures double to triple smoking temps for very short periods. I'm pretty excited by the prospect of the electric smoker and have read about and sampled great results.

Pot meet kettle?

Who. Fucking. Cares.

Beef ribs, wagyu brisket, creamed corn, and mac and cheese. Shelly steered me right.

Happy birthday!
