This talk of smoked turkey reminds me of the last turkey farm that had been left in an otherwise would-be hoidy toidy suburb of St. Paul. I used to call two days before Thanksgiving, order my bird, which they would then dispatch that same afternoon. I would pick it up, and at home I’d fire up my extremely cheap…

I use the ramekin for my roasted heads of garlic. Strip most of the paper off (most recipes says to cut off a 1/4 inch of the head, I don’t care) , cover the top of the head with a thick layer of butter, and roast the garlic at 400 for about 40-45 minutes.

Jeez, I got my grandmother’s crust recipe from my mother when I was still talking with her, and it’s perfectly fine (her crust and her apple pies were honed in a Nova Scotia wood fired oven 90 years ago), and it’s just too damned easy to make.

Even as a five year old, I knew to offer the back of my hand for safe sniff. I was walking a block in front of my mom when I offered my hand to a dog I didn’t know, and she yelled at me to be careful with the dog. I turned to address her about it, and that was when the dog reached out and it quickly and neatly removed…

We never had Ovaltine in the house when I was a kid, I had to visit some relative to find out how vile it tasted. We were a Nestle Quik home when I was growing up, and as a fucking old adult I still have what’s now called Nesquik.

I’d imagine that every state is dealing with the GOP ads (that NEVER mention the word “Republican” as they demonize Democratic office holders) that I’ve been seeing in Minnesota. They are laughably bad, but they must be working somewhere, otherwise the GOP handlers are flushing their media buys down the crapper at an…

Nuke your pot pies. It’s 5 1/2 minutes in the microwave.

I could not for the life of me understand what the hell Megan was saying for most of her sketches. Yeah, I already had subtitles turned on, and as always, they sucked with their word salad.

Still waiting on Emma Watson to jump back into the fray, because I have always thought that someday she will win an Oscar.

Armie’s “it’s what’s for dinner” commercial?

Why am I only hearing now that cancer on society is the mother of three children? I feel sorry for the spew from at least her they must have heard as they grew up.

We went to a Jersey Mike’s last night in Eagan Minnesota (this discussion made me think about it), and I loved my #17, but my wife had their #16 (Chicken Philly Cheese steak), and I agree with her assessment- it was horrible.

When working at the edge of South Boston about 1973, I found a great joint under Summer Street for a cheesesteak, and their default was just the way I like ‘em- no peppers. A few years later I was in Manhattan for work, and one of my friends was from Philly and when we drove to a SF convention in DC, we stopped at his…

The lock screen notifications being stacked is genius (like half of the ads on every browser tab on every web site says- it’s GENIUS). I would never want to go back.

How did a man who ever dressed like the image at the top of the article ever get laid? Good lord.

Ever since she wanted to Fuck (me) Ray Bradbury.

At the time I didn’t like what Margaret was like when facing Evonne Goolagong.Come back lady when you not so much of a freakin’ racist.

I’m familar with the opener of which you speak, but when you mentioned P-38, my mind went immediately to the P-38 Lightning,

Mike Dukakis was a neighbor of mine back in the day and he was a fantastic governor that I knew would be a great President. The crap that Lee Atwater pulled during that campaign was shameful.

I’ve seen all three movies, and Vikander’s portrayal was certainly superior to Jolie’s. Vikander’s face doesn’t have any issue expressing emotions.
