Personally I think we should be allowed to eat horses as well. I dont have much respect for horses. ANy animal that will eat itself to death is pretty low on the totem pole IMO.

Hwood
I thought pigs were generally clean animals and only rolled around in mud to stay cool in hot weather...

Oh and Alice... I got in touch with the folks over at west winds. looks like I might be dropping in on the clinic tonight to get my hitting eval done. hope I still remember how to swing a racket

jrs, i know that you've already lost all respect for me since i told you how i feel about putting the ball out of my opponent's reach for a winner. but i also think that cows and pigs are just too cute to eat.

jrs: man, the baby's back ribs are sooo good. the meat just falls off the bones.
me: *clutching table, trying not to fall off the barstool from nausea*
LOL!!!!!!

If my tourney gets rained out, I may be up for lunch again. We'll see.

No need to defend your position on going veggie. Just had to give you a hard time. I might go vegetarian if meat didn't taste so good. If it makes you feel better, I fell off the meat wagon last night and fixed a bean burrito.... or does that qualify if it also had cheese and sour cream on it (yum!).

BTW - it was the BRAISED ribs.

will fava beans and chianti go well with horse meat? Im assuming henckles is some kind of fancy utensil used to eat the horse meat. I figured those Mt Airy folk would know how to eat them some horse meat.

Prostaff,

All I know is pigs eat slop, which is basically everything noody else wants to eat. And Jules Winfield (My man in Inglewood) wont eat pig because they are filthy animals and if theres one thing you never do,you never go against Jules Winfield.

wtf?? do you think that it'll be like a water evaluation, where they find all sorts of crap in your tap, so they can sell you a filtration system? they offer a discount on a 6-pack of lessons. i think that you'll save something like 65 cents/lesson.

hopefully i'll see you there--i'm thinking about going tonight, too.

Funny, that's exactly why my wife won't eat them... and I don't eat them because my wife doesn't eat them.

hahaha nice, yea I knew I'd have to get a hitting eval before they OK'd me for any specific program/ladder/league so I mean it is what it is... I just want to get out and hit some balls.

I'm guessing it'll be on dirt in the bubble right?

westwinds drill:

luscious tennis fun open to all, from 7-8:30 with jay, god's gift to middle-aged women whose husbands go on extended business trips. but when i checked this afternoon, it was full (8 people max). call and put your name on the wait list anyway: plenty of people drop out, especially when the weather is this bad. it's a mix of crafty hitters and ball-crushers.

instead of the drill, i'll be hitting with my friend amy from 5:30-6:30. jrp, what's your real name? if i see you, i'd rather greet you by name, so that everyone else at the club isn't thinking that i picked you up from craigslist or something.

this friggin constant flooding. gonna lose my mind.

wut were the rain stats for May? looks like June is no different...
guess i'll try to look up some weather stats.


i decided to treat myself to a Dogfish IMMORT ale.
notes of maple, vanilla, and oak.
drinking it out of a snifter and i give it 2 thumbs up!
ELEVEN PERCENT ... woah! thats 3 beers in 1!


Brewed with peat-smoked barley, Immort is brewed with organic juniper berries, vanilla & maple syrup. It's aged on oak and fermented with a blend of English & Belgian yeasts

TheJRK,

Can you check in?

You didn't look 100% last night and I left you in the capable hands of three guys with livers of steel and police records *oops!*. Cool guys though.


Speaking of convict. I was going to post a picture of an ex con with tattoos.. and I found this picture.

Looks a lot like Moz!
