Yeah, second that. My mother was born in 1941, and she prefers Pepsi. Growing up she would give us Pepsi and Milk occasionally. As an adult I asked her where that came from, and she told me her Father, a WWII vet with 7 kids, would be the only one to get Pepsi at the dinner table. If he was in a generous mood, the…

Checks out.

Not a great move considering they will be asking for their votes in the future. In a morally correct sense, yeah, but Democracy isn’t actually great at producing ethically/morally sound outcomes.

Unfortunately, wine publications operate almost completely as paid advertisement for the wines featured/rated. The ratings magically are higher for labels that advertise heavily. We used to call Wine Spectator “Wine Speculator” in the biz.

Old timey but The Trolley Stop on St. Charles and Barrone in NOLA was the paragon in ‘97

Fun fact: The Charles Mulligan steakhouse in Parks and Rec is a thinly disguised version of Sullivan’s Steakhouses, a chain with something like 14 locations across the US. It’s the same, down to the fact it’s named after a bare knuckle boxer from the early 20th century. 

you have that backwards...the LAPD was in the studio’s pocket.

Sign me up!

The green thumb thing...eh...I guess the movies made money, so I can see the (incorrect) intention. Spurned was likely supposed to be spurred. The editing on almost all gawker is atrocious, and the writing is a bit suspect as well.

Nah, you’re being an ass. Same kind of ass that thinks “I had to [insert miserable experience] so others should do it too.” I spent 15 years in the “service industry” and there are very few people who wouldn’t want the day off, regardless of whether they spend it with family or just chilling on the couch by themself.…

Sometimes we get REALLY wild and squeeze some lemon on it!

I did a little research, and it appears I was wrong about Ruth’s Chris. If they are telling the truth, they do indeed carry a selection of USDA Prime cuts, but most of the rest? I stand by my statement.

“Prime beef is what we typically eat in nice restaurants or at fancy hotels.” Hahaha....um, no. Prime beef is rare even in high end steak houses, and difficult to find routinely. Restaurants may say “Prime” on the menu, but it has a good chance of not being true. The vast majority of “nice” restaurants {Sullivan’s,…

Are you here for a good time or here for a long time? Everybody’s got a choice.

If you aren’t making Caesar dressing at home you’re doing it wrong. Anchovy, Garlic, Dijon, Parmesan, Worcestershire, Lemon, salt/pepper, and (easy hack) good Mayo. It sounds more difficult than it is, but the results will ensure you never buy the shelf stable, grocery crap again.

I’m intrigued...

It’s not even real tequila, its mixtos (51% blue agave, 49% grain alcohol...plus flavoring and coloring)

I think you’re looking for “paragon”.
