Huge fan of Alton Brown’s good eats. I followed his vanilla recipe, but left out the preserves. I hear is called Philadelphia style since it contains no eggs. It actually turned out tasting like ice milk you can pick up from DQ, which I love. It is not as thick or rich as Ben and Jerry’s for sure.

I rushed it a bit, only 4 hours of chill time before I churned it. Heck I bought the ice cream maker over a week ago and only got one sorbet out of it. I wanted the cool goodness. It did not firm up too much when I made it. A real runny soft serve, but it froze up really good. The vanilla was not as intense as I would of liked it, but still nummy as hell.

The first thing that should be said about this video is that it separates dabblers in the inane from serious connoisseurs. There are people who will watch and decide, “This isn’t even a little amusing,” and those who will weep with laughter on the first, second, third and 20th viewings. There are, apparently, plenty of the latter. Soon after the clip aired, someone posted it online, and “Turtle Boy” quickly assumed his place in the pantheon of unwitting digital heroes, alongside Dude Who Juggles to the Beatles, next to Boom Goes the Dynamite Guy, and most recently, Vapid Anchor Babe Interviewing Holly Hunter. Unlike these people, though, Jonathon wasn’t demonstrating a talent (or a lack of talent), nor had he sought out his moment of fame (or infamy). He was just a youngster colliding with a desperate reporter.

Steve Martin married girlfriend Anne Stringfield during a ceremony at his Los Angeles home, his publicist said.

Former Nebraska Sen. Bob Kerrey, a friend of Martin’s, presided over Saturday’s ceremony, Alan Nierob said. Saturday Night Live creator Lorne Michaels was Martin’s best man, he said.

Most of the roughly 75 guests — who included Tom Hanks, Diane Keaton, Eugene Levy, Carl Reiner and Ricky Jay — were not told that he and Stringfield would wed when they were invited to his home for a “party,” Nierob said. The ensuing nuptials were a surprise to them, he said.

Sorry the pic is blurry. Came from my phone capturing a LCD.
A terabyte is a huge amount of data, double it (two trillion).
2,197,949,512,728 bytes of raw storage Ben at ESS Data Recovery sorted through with a hex editor to give us bunches of data back. He is not done, but we are blessed to have him on this. Finding needles in an uberly massive haystack is an appropriate analogy.

I highly recommend ESS.

Living off fast food, gas station grub, vending, and the occasional pizza made me hurt for a good meal.
I have worked multiple jobs, been a college student for 10 years, and am so sick of fast food. This week with an amazing amount of hours at work and messed up eating / sleeping conditions really wore on me.

I stood in front of the vending machine on the 3rd floor hoping it would provide something different, hardly. “Well an almond joy might actually be nutritious.”

Got home tonight and it was the best I felt all week. We are past the critical stage. Now restore and reconfigure is the game plan. During the week the few times I got to sit on my couch were not very comforting (worry filled me). Tonight was awesome. We headed to the store and made a meat and potato with gravy meal. I relaxed and wolfed down “real food”. Theresa started laughing when I took a break and told me to breathe.

While the beef was getting firmer in the freezer I whipped up a batch of vanilla bean ice cream (you can see it on my flicker, will be a post). Gonna churn it up during lunch if we get one tomorrow.

I have to wear pants Mon morning Been rocking jeans and sandals since tuesday. If I am working 16 hours I better be comfortable. Wearing pants with my shirt tucked in is the most demoralizing thing I have ever dealt with. Pants steal your soul.

I am glad that things are going better, I love that I can once again enjoy a meal that I made from scratch from raw ingredients, I am glad to have a strong community of friends and peeps that support me. Oh man I so hope 5 O clock actually means something to me again some time here soon. I got a roast to cook and enjoy for a few meals.

I am a fan of warmer things. Those neon red flaming chee-too’s and the flaming fries, other spicy chips, but they mostly have little flavor and are just to burn ya. Hot and spicy cheez-it’s are packed with flavor and not too much burn. I would of never tried them, but after 90 + hours of work and eating anything people bring in I am very glad I did.

It is the green tobasco sauce which I bet is jalapeño. The flavor mixed with the cheese and salt is awesome. you can suck them down and not worry about needing a drink to cool down.

There was a Slovak man who got himself stuck inside his car in an avalanche, and he was unable to dig a way out because of the snowing.
Apparently, he got a great idea while relaxing with a beer.

He had 60 half-litre bottles of beer in his car as he was going on holiday, and after cracking one open to think about the problem he realised he could urinate on the snow to melt it, local media reported.

It is a good article. One with great morals.
here it is

pretty cool idea if you ask me.

too bad it is $30
