I have gone through four Rock Band 2 drum sets and have owned 8 plastic guitars which are Xbox 360-compatible. I make that distinction because while I prefer the Rock Band series to play, my guitar preference has always been the Guitar Hero model. I never liked the Rock Band guitars.

The metal. Back in the 90's my sister's stereo was constantly bumping Metallica, Pantera and Sepultura. I wanted to know what is was all about, and I fell pretty hard for Metallica in particular.

Good luck with the interview!

Pulled Pork-capades!

*Turns laptop covered in Sharpie over to IT.*

Have they written another song as good as that one song they wrote?

Eh, I really don't want anything I can't download or drive somewhere and get within five minutes.

I am genuinely saddened by this. Blockbuster was the only place left I knew to acquire Sour Jacks candy, which put the more widely available Sour Patch Kids to shame.

So glad someone put this quote in here. I love that scene.

Is that just tex-mex lasagna, basically just stacked enchiladas served casserole-style, or was it Italian lasagna flavors with tortillas instead of noodles? Or am I still way off?

Sunday Dinner: scratch made 4-meat bolognese. An event in itself, but I stepped it up by making the pasta, too. Delightful. Plus two more meals with bolognese on their way.

These guys have never been my thing, but you do make it sound pretty great. I'll at least try it before writing it off. I tend to love Kurt Ballou's production, so maybe that'll be the trick.

There's a place in town here that serves BrewDog's Tactical Nuclear Penguin (32%) by the ounce. Like $40 or something. I've never tried it, but it's one of those things where I always hope to be in the room if someone I'm with just HAS to do it.

The belly was still nice and meaty, so although it was luxurious, it surprisingly wasn't disgustingly rich. Skin on, like a pork cracker. Got the belly at the Asian market on Legacy in Plano. Yep.

Flemish Red is one of the most common styles of sour ale, although the actual sourness can certainly vary from moderate to butt-puckeringly sour. Nearly any Flemish Red will have some sour character.

I was very surprised by the lack of any pumpkin or spice flavor at all. So much so that I actually wondered if I'd gotten somehow mislabeled bottles.

Not sure if minor or major. It certainly feels major.

Based on the amount of Psych I've watched (all of it), the most likely scenario is that Sean (Detective Psych) is intentionally wrong and Gus (Dule Hill) will correct him immediately.

Oh man, I gotta hunt this down. That sounds fabulous to me.
