  1. I have 3 upper deck 90's era John Olerud rookie cards. I will pay you to take them away. I think at their peak they were worth a whole $8 each. I also have Oil Can Boyd's rookie card!

    Bluesfest 2008

    If I was to guess I'd say it's not about his ability, it's just his lack of stage presence. But he's been a supporter of the fest for years and has earned his place in the lineup each time. Did anyone go see Tony's Hendrix cover show thing last weekend?
  3. AD that is fuckin' creepy because I JUST showed up to post that. That blog must be making the rounds Here's the content of it: This concept ties heavily into post #7 Diversity and post #19 Travelling, but is important that you fully understand how white people view authenticity and experience. In most situations, white people are very comforted by seeing their own kind. However, when they are eating at a new ethnic restaurant or traveling to a foreign nation, nothing spoils their fun more than seeing another white person. Many white people will look into the window of an ethnic restaurant to see if there are other white people in there. It is determined to be an acceptable restaurant if the white people in there are accompanied by ethnic friends. But if there is a table occupied entirely by white people, it is deemed unacceptable. The arrival of the “other white people†to either restaurants or vacation spots instantly means that lines will grow, authenticity will be lost, and the euphoria of being a cultural pioneer will be over. Being aware of this can be extremely valuable in your efforts to gain the trust of white friends and co-workers. If you bring a white person to an ethnic restaurant and another white person (or group of white people) shows up, you can lose all respect and trust that you have worked so hard to acquire. Do your best to find a table with a divider, or ask the waiter to put future white people out of sight.
  4. I like everything in this thread, and I challenge bruseel sprout haters to try Brad's method(s) or to halve them, steam them for 5-6 minutes then fry in a bit of olive oil, add salt and pepper and a shaving of parmesan. I wish I liked acorn squash. A baked or broiled squash with butter and brown sdugar should be something I'd like. But it ain't.
  5. You know what I hate are caucasian primadonnas who brag to their friends about going to a chinese restaurant where "there weren't any white people". Besides the obvious irony of being a whitey, there's the false premise that the restauranteur will be so head-over-heels excited to see you that he will somehow treat you differently. Even though you asked for a fork, plum sauce and an english menu. The only way I can see this working is if you take your chinese friends with you and order off the menu. Then you can brag away.
  6. He puts on an excellent show. Did he do the "Boris the Spider"-esque voice for Tarantula?
  7. Throwing your cigarette butts on the ground is what smokers do that is truly deplorable. There is no excuse for it, there is no rational justification for it.
  8. Larry doesn't write editorials or commentary as well as he writes scripts. Dry self-loathing Jew wit is better delivered by this guy

    whopper

    I've been meaning to hit the new fish sandwich at Wendy's. I never go to Fast food joints anymore but once in a while I like a filet-o-fish or maybe a Harvey's Veg.Burger. For me the greatest example of product falling way short of hype is A&W. So many people I knew loved the papa Burger and I tried it and it sucked.
  10. You're right I really should commit this to graph paper. How God gave me 3.1415926 feet of pleasuring staff is beyond me.
  11. Yeah I guess "sex act with meat" needed a bit more explanation. When I celebrate Steak and a BJ day what I do is buy a large top round, pound it flat with a mallet, wrap it around my john henry and fellate myself. Someone told me that was how the holiday is celebrated. You can also celebrate it with a loved one in which case you ask them to wrap the steak around your Don Johnson, and give you a helpful push from behind if you're having trouble reaching and/or you're equipment falls short of the usual sizes
  12. You want me to choose between celebrating an irrational number, and a rational sex act with meat that has a predictable and enjoyable conclusion? How will I ever decide?
  13. He's been cultivating that beautiful bastard for quite some time now. I like the controlled clipper job...it adds so much more creep to the look than letting it run wild
  14. It's actually a hip-cushioning belt. You could wear it out with a skort and maybe a floral long sleeve shirt.
  15. I thought the movie was contrived and far too long. I guess it was just ok. William Hurt also creeps me way out.
  16. It's steak and BJ day already? Awesome, thanks Jambmands!
  17. It would've but fortunately I found a great place. Thanks for everyone's help and suggestions.
  18. Muchas gracias, I left a message for her.
  19. They don't need it, and the carpeting isn't a dealbreaker. I think no closets is a semi-dealbreaker but to be honest for an April 1st place it's getting late. That place may well end up as their apartment if this gets much tighter. Phorbesie where on Powell are you...west of Bronson or East? I'll check things out there tonight. Did I mention apartment hunting for friends really sucks?
  20. I'm all over Craigslist and Kijiji and the usual places but thanks AD. Actually went to check that place out last weekend and it's on the shortlist. Looking for a place for friends is way harder than for yourselves so like in the case of that apartment there's carpeting and no laundry in the building and no closets at all.
  21. It's for two friends. needs: -balcony or outdoor space -to be central -under $1000 2bdrm is great but 1bdrm is fine too. They have no pets, they're non-smokers and don't have a car or need parking. Help, vibes or whatever greases your wheels.
  22. What organization gives awards to someone on its own board? Lemme guess, the selection committee was made up of board members. Mickey stole my idea, I recently recorded the sounds of Katie's eggs traveling through her uterus. It is titled "Materniternity" and it comes out on Itunes next week.
  23. The Jew side loves a good falafel, good hummus and good bakklava...when I say Jew I mean "Foods that Jews, Palestinians, lebanese and Greeks all claim to have invented" The honky side loves everything else really. I love it all though Poutine and Shwarma I'm done with having had each far too many times in 5 years in Ottawa. And for the record, and FYI Bouche, I LOVE sausage as a main course and I HATE stuffed peppers
