What is your position on including egg in fried rice, Mr. Post jack?

Agreed! And you do love you some duck confit, based on pics.

Be careful throwing around terms like that with Jacob! Good luck Jacob! Sounds like a great day/evening Stephen!

Spoiler alert if you're following the race. This thread doesn't get a lot of love, but goddam if today wasn't awesome. Mandela Day was being celebrated by MTN Quebeka which is the very first African team in the Tour -- a wild card team at that. The coverage focused on their orange helmets with #mandeladay on them and also the Mandela quote Tweeted by race leader from team Sky, Chris Froome, who was born in Kenya. There was a 20-man breakaway and the first mention of Stephen Cummings from MTN Quebeka was in the last 2-3k when he pulled into third place on the road. At about 1k Cummings shot past Romaine Bardet and Thibeau Pinaux (who teammates buried themselves to put him in position to win) and won the stage. It was incredible! The team's first stage win in the TDF happened on Mandela Day with a come from nowhere finish. Amazing. Nelson was smiling down on them today.

Looks tasty as hell, Mike.

Go have a slushie...

Don't remember the track selection but Beatles 62-66 and 67-70 were two of my favorite cassettes back in the day...

I got some of these to write deep thoughts and doodle

Nope.

Now THAT is a knob. Who made that?

I don't blame you for making that inference because the one data point was pretty damn cool. I would have skewed it even further by pointing out that he had a massive collection of vinyl and reel-to-reel tapes and a Stax Earspeakers setup that he loved. Still, on balance, an asshole.

Summer... Summer something... /martyfeldman

@Dusty: Iggy's "The Idiot World Tour" featured Bowie on keyboards and backing vocals. @Grahame: interesting I guess, but moreso just selfish and unconcerned with parental propriety. He also took her to A Clockwork Orange when she was about 10. That didn't go as well.

Claire's first concert -- her dad took her and it was his idea -- was Iggy Pop with David Bowie on keyboards and Blondie as the opener. She was 14.

You don't speak for everyone here or have a perfect handle on what "this place" is or isn't about. You might want to take your own advice and show more discretion in your posts.

The Marshal Store is on the shore of Tomales Bay and has a wood fired bbq for oysters, fish and meats. Nice big and fat Tomales Bay oysters are barbecued in the Shell and sauced in a variety of ways. Chorizo and chorizo butter is my favorite, but Rockefeller with spinach, cheese and bread crumbs was very close today. The bacon & worchestershire sauce was tasty but not quite as excellent. They also have smaller raw oysters on the half shell in the traditional manner but I didn't get any this time. They are all served with a couple chunks of grilled sourdough garlic bread. We went during MOA so many others got to enjoy these delights and can speak up.

Earlier I had barbecued oysters (chorizo, Kilpatrick bacon and Rockefeller) and some of a tri-tip sandwich at the Marshal Store. Yum

Those are scones! What kind of Brit are you?

What the hell is that?

Got a Kabob-job at off the grid tonight

This Tour is already pretty freakin epic with cross-winds, crashes, cobbles, and comebacks. Today's finish was awesome and inspiring, especially after the disaster yesterday. Very sorry to see Fabian Cancellara abandon with another broken vertebrae in his last Tour. Losing Simon Gerrans and Tom Demoulin were other bummers.

My sister had a very nice dog named Rosie so that is a good start. Too clever-clever to use a pairing with Watson? Sherlock might be too obvious and isn't very feminine, but what about Bell[e] as in Alexander Graham ("Come in here Watson, I want to see you ")?
