Don’t forget the Texas idiot politician who posted a video whinging about Bud Light and how he’d never buy “their” product again then showed off a fridge full of Karbach brewing products, which is owned wholly by Anheuser-Busch.

This show has been a rare bright spot in a year of pretty shitty spots so:

How the heck could you manage to do 18 freaking slides of “Big stars who launched their careers in bad horror films” and not have Bruce Campbell?
He’s the prototype of the model, for Pete’s sake!

I’ve tried a couple different locations at varying times in their life-cycle (just opened, been in business a couple years) and to me the chicken is absolutely flavorless with the only notes coming from burned flour in the breading.  I would literally eat microwave chicken nuggets before this chain.  Another place…

I assume that as an IT grunt (transport specialist sounds like a cable-runner to me) he had access to the SCIF to support the network infrastructure.  The big issue, I’m thinking, is that the folks who ran that SCIF must have been very lax in how they secured it when he was inside and he was able to pocket documents…

If they can’t get Arnie for this show they have failed:

Drastically under-rated movie. Scheider and Lithgow and a bunch of guys pretending Russian accents plus the first time they reboot HAL and you hear that voice in a dark theater. It suffered in comparison to the original cause it was a straight sci-fi moovie rather than an intellectual exploration (and the slightly…

I was once leaving Gillette (NE Wy) late on a friday after a week of working with customers in the area. It was about 4:30pm, getting dark, and starting to snow in a relatively threatening manner. I was in my then boss’s SAAB 900 turbo and since I needed to get back to Denver that night so was pushing 70-75mph on a…

That stretch of I80 between Laramie and Rock Springs centered roughly on Rawlins consistently has the worst weather of anywhere in the country. I used to travel through there every month (Denver to Rock Springs- shout-out to the Best Western Outlaw Inn) and it didn’t matter what season, how mild the weather was on…

Driving about a mile and half up the road to the vet’s office to have her put to sleep. Little Bear hadn’t been doing very well and had been eating less and less for a couple weeks, but still showed interest in food and yowled to get up on my lap anytime I sat down, but one morning she just didn’t have the energy. She…

Most corporate IVR voice-command systems are programmed to route the call to a meat-based organism (ie “customer service rep”) on hearing profanity. It’s possible these alleged AI systems (if these are really AI I want my future back!) are the same. In this case the proper way to begin your order would be:
Give me a…

Kakawa is a must-have for any trip to Santa Fe.  A wintry morning walking around the plaza is so much better with a stop at Kakawa and a potent red-chile chocolate warm up.  Once you’re toasty warm inside and out you’re ready to hit Canyon Rd.

I actually signed back into my old kinja account just to bring up the fact that P Terry’s, while making really good burgers and acceptable fries, is doing something that pretty much no other fast food chain does: actually designing their restaurants.   Their restaurants each have their own unique mid-century…

“She’s still dead, Jerry.  Back to you in the studio!”

It sounds like it interfaces with a robotic total station which would track it via that 360degree retroprism (the orange thing on top). That would give the total station knowledge of the position of the robot but there still has to be a way for the station to control the robot (moving it on line and putting down the…

While I agree green chile is the taste of New Mexico, Hatch isn’t the only one. Socorro green and Chimayo red both are uniquely delicious, too! I’m a big proponent of the evolving terroir of green/red chiles. Despite being very (very) pro Hatch I even think Colorado chile has its advantages which I guess makes me an…

that’s doing it right!

You should go anywhere in the state of New Mexico.  The only truly good thing served at Casa Bonita (and at Pancho’s Buffet if you happen upon one) is that sopapilla, but that’s exactly how they’re done in traditional New Mexican cuisine.  They tend to be provided free at the end of the meal as well, though I’ve been…

well if “Brunch is inherently gay for the way that it challenges the traditional breakfast/brunch/dinner trinar” then what does that say about 2nd breakfast or elevenses?
