  1. RIP Caroll Edwin Spinney, better known as Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch. Big Bird is perennially six years old but Carroll made it to 85 after 50 years of playing and voicing two of television's most memorable characters. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/12/08/obituaries/caroll-spinney-dead.amp.html
  2. Oops. Moved to correct thread.
  3. Happy beach birthday Todd! Cheers!
  4. The New York Times is also mainstreaming making fresh and aged nog. I might make a fresh batch with this recipe -- maybe substituting whipped cream for the beaten egg whites because I like that so much with the Mattnog -- just to compare them. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/12/02/dining/drinks/eggnog-recipe.amp.html
  5. Going with the opposite ratio in the bedroom setup. Obviously, I need to even everything up and get my cables lengthened and organized differently, but this setup is incredibly satisfying.
  6. Have a great one Bro Bryan! Cheers!
  7. RIP Gaz Regan, barman, cocktail writer, orange bitters creator and survivor, is gone too young at 68. I think I'll stir up some negronis with my finger later today to toast him. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sfchronicle.com/wine/amp/Gary-Gaz-Regan-barman-and-former-Chronicle-14849907.php
  8. RIP MJP
  9. I made a big double batch of Chili Verde À La Nate because my chilis were ripe and I didn't want to waste them. I think I'll make dinner for my dad this weekend and freeze the other two containers for future reference.
  10. Persimmon Pudding made with our own persimmons. I quite like this recipe.
  11. Happy birthday to our resident Cuban! ¡Salud, por que la belleza sobra! (That translates as "to your health, since you're already so beautiful" for you gringos.)
  12. ??
  13. Trapped on Prime
  14. Have some nice rum and enjoy your big day Chris! Cheers!
  15. Happy birthday you fabulous baker boy! What bottle will be opened for 52? Cheers!
  16. Shocking menagerie sprouting up around you!
  17. so you got kittenz?
  18. I ain't your task rabbit. And I don't have the refrigerator space. I'll come over and supervise... Decided to go with Old Forester Mattnog, along with Vieux (old) Agricole Clement rum. Before: After:
  19. We're already behind on Mattnog 2019, but it's not too late! Nate and Stretch and Shelly and others should get off the stick and get on with the nog! I'm concocting a batch today or tomorrow. Time to break a few eggs!
  20. Latest from Fairfax PD claims that Marin is not supposed to be shut down for the next round unless the Kincaid fire threatens Marin power lines: 10/29/2019 The Fairfax Police Department just received the following update from the Marin County Office of Emergency Services as it relates to the PSPS and current power outages in Fairfax and the entire County. CURRENT: Power is available through the main transmission lines for Marin County but PG&E is experiencing challenges with substations. They are trying to determine and resolve those issues ASAP. FUTURE: Potential Power Shutoff Update: PG&E states that Marin is currently outside the scope of the next general PSPS that begins today (Tuesday) however the Kincade Fire could impact the county. If winds push fire towards transmission lines supplying Marin, PG&E would need to de-energize those lines and Marin would experience outage countywide. PG&E is monitoring fire and weather closely but can not give any detailed information on timing or probabilities.
  21. Well done, you.
  22. Have a great one Marc! Cheers!

    Watchmen

    Looking forward to this series. I've never read Watchmen but kind of want to. The movie pretty much sucked and I don't even remember what happened so I'm close to a blank slate for the series.
