I’m not a big food show watcher and never was a Ramsay fan, but his Twitter gimmick of dumping on people’s food was funny... for a few days. The jokes were always the same and people started sending him the most ridiculous things they could just to get a response. Probably the shortest I’ve ever followed a celebrity…

I’ve started to see this in the growing BBQ craze. Pit masters and smokers are reaching celebrity status. Then they go to these festivals in NYC or LA or Las Vegas and they cook up these wild BBQ-inspired things that will never be on their actual menu (because there are 1,000 people in line at 4 a.m. on a Saturday…

I don’t think anybody proofread any of this.

After all the other gymnastics stories on here, I expected this to be some sort of abuse news about Georgia. No, it’s just an overly complicated piece about Georgia hiring a new coach... that takes four paragraphs to say who that is.

JFC those first two paragraphs could be worded better. Who was fired by who in what year because they didn’t do what when and who replaced them that was also fired for not doing what because why?

Ah good. Seems everything is going well there.

The map wasn’t there when this was first published.

I feel like the Hanford site was in the news not that long ago. I pulled it up on Google Maps and specifically remember reading about that site recently.

It’s OK. Eleven will find a way out of this for us.

Ribbed seats, for his Emperor’s pleasure.

I think that’s all fair criticism and I admit the “Gorillaz” presence is less so in this than their first two albums. I do miss that.

I need to revise my earlier statement. Saturnz Barz is better than I remembered from the first listen.

Yeah it’s on the Spotify release. It’s one of the better tunes for sure.

They were smart to release Hallelujah Money first because that song is pure brilliance. I’ve only listened to the rest of the album one time through (and sporadically on shuffle before I upgraded Spotify) and it’s good but it’s not Hallelujah Money good.

You just described the train in Seattle. But hey that city sure is pretty downtown!

My wife and I took a train from Seattle to Vancouver awhile back. Parts of the route (specifically anything by water) were scenic, but a lot of it was in-land farm country. I imagine that’s the majority of cross-country rail trips that either don’t go through mountains or skirt a coast.

(Insert fat Americans joke here)

Looks cramped. Basically a cruise ship on rails. But yeah, just put some fancy shit in it and sell it as “luxury.”

ok

We have a disaster training facility where I live. They frequently recruit local college kids to be “victims.” Fun times.
