Are the reviews on par with the three wolves howling at the moon shirt?

I have an hour and some change to kill at work here so we shall see.

Also X man be weary of the John Deere power wheels. We got mu nice one and she was flying all over yard in that thing. She staretd following beside my dad when he would mow the yard.

Then she ran in into the fence and the front grill came off. It still drove and stuff just fine. But be prepared for the front grill to fall off.

Also if he ever says its too slow just get another battery and runthem in series. It like doubles the speed. My buddy did that with a gator run at 24 volts instead of the twelve. get like 11 mph top speed out of the thing.

Get Zappy to string up a stick either mains or crosses only, peel a 'nana and continue with your standard service motion. Voila - sliced 'nana and serve practice, check and check.

Already got the second battery ordered. Young A already shows signs of the "lead foot syndrome" that runs in my wife's side of the family, but so far he likes driving in a circle. That should change. I, on the other hand, never, ever speed, unless you count my college years when I caught something called "Hops Toe." Only showed up when I was full of Falstaff, Pabst Blue, Carling Black or, when I was flush, Schlitz.

AQ, beautiful family. Reminds me of us about 40 or so years ago.

Happy New Year to one and all.

Nice... I still have a $50 Amazon gift card to use.

If someone photoshopped a pool of blood instead of an avacado in that second pic, that's how my hand looked.

why not just use a paring knife and go around the guac fruit? by the time it's ripen, it's really soft already.

btw, anyone know where I can find old/aged ginger? Trying to make a desert that calls for it. I went to the asian store and used the young kind, but it's not strong enough to make the milk solidify.

Trying to find an cheaper alternative to micropanes as well. So far, i can't find anything as sharp as those $15 tools. =(

JRStriker: I've master making this hot sauce. It definitely puts hair on anyone's chest.
3 parts thai hot pepper (I've used a combo of green and red's)
3 parts fresh garlic
1 to 1.5 part rice or white vinegar
1/2 part salt
1/3 part sugar

throw everything in the food processor and blend until fine pieces. Do not make into paste.
I made the fatal mistake of putting my face on top of food processor chimney when I made this. *Did I mention i used to look like Brad Pitt before this accident*

It keeps for almost forever in the fridge due to the salt and vinegar and gets more angry with time.

So far, I've used it as a dipping sauce with soy sauce and chopped up cilantro. It goes well with almost anything you want to hide the taste of. (Chicken, tofu, old shoe, etc etc.)

Thanks for the tip. Sounds tasty.

I've done that blender mistake before when my wife or my mother-in-law make pepper sauce for Ghanian food. Feels like I just got maced. Did I mention I used to look like Denzel?

i think the usta has it right.
im supposed to cry for this former 5.0 player.
sorry.. u used to be sooo good and now can't find a league nearby?
probably cuz so few people around you have ever been as good as you!

the author is exactly the type of player most usta teams try to recruit though.... ex college player... a few years of not playing. getting back into the sport. try to get low rating. a few matches and BAM... they are crushing their self taught twisted wrister opponents that only started playing when they were 25 and have enough bad habits and lazy technique that there is no way to compete with somebody that had proper techniqe engrained into muscle memory as a 7 year old thru college.

jordan might not play like "air jordan" any more... but i wouldn't want him in my rec. basketball league either!

Wow, talk about a shock to the system: 10 days in sunny Florida, playing tennis, hanging at the pool & beach, only to come home to 35 degrees, wind chills in the 20s, and work.

I now know what I want to be when I grow up: retired.

Haha!!!! I joke with people all the time that I'm "retired." And, technically, I am. Because I left my job, after a 20-year career, to be a stay-at-home mommy. By the time my youngest goes off to college...I'll be over 60. Real Retirement Age, I tell ya. Despite what the SSA says. Married to a CPA, I hope we've managed our finances and parents' estates appropriately so that downsizing will be our Reality.

Besides, some of the busiest, most active people I know are...Retired. LOL
