Not good, any way that you slice it.

Just made some Bo Kho last weekend, and added bay leaves to it for the first time. Best batch that I ever made. It may just have been that I nailed the harmony of the other ingredients better than I have before, but I choose to attribute it to the bay leaves.

That made my whole YEAR. Thanks!

“the right to bare arms”

I will not simmer a damned thing without bay leaves. As much as I tend to be a stickler for authenticity, in this case I do not care what the cuisine is. Is it simmering, and does it contain meat or beans? Put bay leaf in it.

Plus, you took away from time that Lehto could have spent writing another book. For shame.

Not to mention, I was wearing a tie.

No.

Oh, I hear you. I am 49 and also date back to the pre-Imitrex days. I have no idea how I survived them. And yes, insurance has been a constant battle with the stuff. Covering six vials a month does not cut it. (I get it in vials and draw half-doses to stretch it out, but I can get up to eight in a day at peak…

Thankfully, I am episodic, not chronic, so despite the fact that I have had them for longer, you probably got the shit end of the stick!

Then it was not a cluster headache.

Not sure if I could limbo under a bar set that low.

Rim shot.

As someone who has had cluster headaches for thirty-four years, I am afraid that imagining beaches is an insufficient distraction for us. I prefer banging my head into the wall hard enough to damage the sheetrock, all while screaming at the top of my lungs.

Layaway. It’s not just for K-Mart anymore.

I just rewatched My Cousin Vinny a couple of months ago, and she is just as disarming in that movie as ever. She steals every single scene away from Joe Pesci. Think about that: she steals every scene from Joe Effing Pesci.

Counterpoint: P.J. O’Rourke.

My wife has always been too busy snorting the whipped cream itself to bother inhaling the gas. I explained whippets to her one time, and she was horrified that anyone would waste the gas instead of using it to inject the whipped cream directly into their bloodstreams.

Funny how when you are younger and get into Hendrix for the first time because Guitars, you completely overlook what is happening in the background. Then, suddenly, you finally notice and think, ye GODS what the hell is going on with Mitchell?

Can you find a performance for me where Mitch is NOT on fire? Not sure that he could play any other way. . .
