Some of the weird poo poo that makes up his face appears to me from some of those pictures as if he inflicted it upon himself, which is horror.

I enjoy that the intelligently depressed Roast Beef has danger codes like Brisket 36 worked out with his friends to handle stress situations. What an unlikely cavalry.

Baby due any minute now, so the only money I shot was a preorder of the next book. I'm all over those.

I'd support Onstad for a ton o' chuckles, great reads, and characters I'll keep forever. I'll twit him some ducats when I get another pay check after the baby. See how it all shakes out.

This sounds like my first experience with Shakespeare, which was reading Romeo and Juliet in class, and how after one page the teacher had to spend half an hour explaining the significance of what we just read and how we should all be laughing our asses off at the incredible comedy of their play on words.

At some point you have to just draw a line in history and say "here, watch West Side Story" instead, knowing full well that as lame as the dance-fights were, it will one day be replaced with Leonardo DeCaprio.

Forgive me if my understanding of olde englishe and collier, choler and carrying coals just wasn't up to par to dig on their brilliance. It's language we don't use today, so how are you supposed to appreciate it the same way as they did 400 years ago when it was timely, and you're like 15 in high school.

Lots of high horses here.
Look, if the Terminator 2 plot is incredibly lovely, it's not going to matter in 30 years that they were the first people to do that crazy weird morphing liquid poo poo, any more than it would matter about bullet-time in the Matrix if the plot sucks as well. Some people find the plot/story/whatever of Citizen Kane to be so dreadful that it's not worth watching it just to appreciate the first time someone used Bullet Time before it became commonplace enough that it's the standard in Bleach commercials.

The latest comic says "continues", so it'll continue. I know there's been a boner in the back of the van for three months now, but don't sweat it. Who knows, maybe he's been ducking Andy Larson lately. You ever piss off a weatherman?

Old man needs to call a doctor if he's had that boner for 3 months.

realtalk: shortages of cork have lead wineries to look into alternative packaging, and try to remove certain stigmas. Boxed wine, screw-top wine, and fake rubber-like 'cork' are all fairly commonplace now.

Or perhaps I heard wrong and it's mold taint that's the issue, not a shortage. This random liquor store has a cool history of cork writeup, listing the forerunners of a replacement being the screw top and that fake rubbery cork I mentioned.

For those who didn't read the link I lanked, there was a cork shortage a few years back or so, and currently Portugal is able to supply 100 years worth of corks w/out a problem.. however there is something called 'corking' which involves mold and/or some other poo poo infecting the cork during the process of making a cork, and thereby affecting the wine in a bad way. Different estimates had it at 1.5%-8% of the wines submitted to magazines and poo poo for testing and reporting on 'em, and upwards of 10% of store-bought wine being corked. That is one of the big reasons that people have moved away from corks, where the best options are the faux-cork and screw-top. Screw-top they do not know if it has an effect on wine over very long periods of time, and either way there is a stigma, just like with boxed wine, which should also be an awesome and ideal way to handle it.

The ideal way to distribute all liquor products is like the Gasolinas in Puerto Rico, or specifically, in a capri-sun like container, in a 10-pack box, in a gas station.

edit: it is a product so good that when we drank all of our rum and were hanging out by the beach talking to a random homeless heroin addict, and promised to return from our nearby abode with fresh gasolinas so we can continue discussing heroin addiction with him, he left once we were out of sight rather than wait for more liquor.
