Every scene in the Big Lebowski. The entire movie is classic. Chevy Chase breakdown scene from Christmas Vacation. That's Chevy at his manic best. Greatest line in a movie though is Bill Murray " yes it's true, this man has no d*ck"

Anyone else have any luck chasing down derby tickets? Got 2 in section 128 and am sending my mother in law...it's been a dream of hers to go to the derby...she is gonna freak out...however, we waited about 40 minutes for a chance to get tix....

What a mess. Logged in right at noon, and was immediately put into a que. Time started at 3 minutes and is now up to 9...first time trying to get tickets...

I find straight baked wings to be quite dry...I have found that steaming the wings for 15 minutes before baking makes them crispy on the outside, but juicy and delicious on the inside...tip of the hat to my fav cooking show of all time, Good Eats and Alton Brown for the idea.

My lights are up, but not on...I chose not to freeze my as$ off this year (Ohio gets cold before you realize it) and put them up last week in shorts....local walmart had all their decorations out before Halloween....it just gets earlier and earlier every year...

Local radio station started playing Christmas music yesterday....seems waaaaay too early to me. Just remembering 25 years ago when I was a kid, if Christmas music started the second week of November, I would have lost my mind waiting for Santa...

There is some really decent stuff that has come out in the last 10-12 years if you have a strange eclectic taste in music...The Decemberists early stuff, frightened rabbit, some of Bright eyes early stuff (love fevers and mirrors, but it may be more tied to my mindset when I first heard the...

Ok, so quick update on this. My wife works at a store, and spoke with a rep from the distributor that handled this keg. It left the Czech Republic 3 days ago, was flown straight in to New Jersey where it was stored in the back of a specially purposed, temperature controlled truck. It was then...

A kitchen pass is just a night out away from the house...it comes from SWMBO and can be a rare event...but my wonderful wife basically sent me with a pocket full of cash and a "don't be home for a while"...it was very good...pilsners aren't my favorite, but I would change my mind on that with a...

A local craft beer bar is holding a special birthday event tonight for the 171st birthday of Pilsner Urquell...because of their status as one of the top 25 craft beer bars in the us according to Draft Magazine, they received a special unfiltered, unpasteurized keg of Pilsner Urquell that they...

Deleted. Wrong board, sorry.

Honestly, the six years I spent in the Air Force were basically a fantastic adventure. I got to live in Seoul Korea for a year, and had some amazing experiences there. I lived all over the country as well and met some amazing people. I always feel a little awkward when people thank me for my...

Back in 2008, I was marooned in Afghanistan and desperately thirsty. Beer was a direct violation of General Order 1 and the only thing even close to it was some NA Becks served in the dfac. I stumbled across this forum back then and my sanity was saved. Seeing so many people, and very...

Hmm, how do I like weather? Will you enjoy people blaming you if they cant fly? (this happens) Will you enjoy hearing "When's this rain gonna stop?" or "When's it going to snow?" (I got that last question for 3 months straight over here) Or perhaps this gem "Where were you on that one...
