Richard Pryor died.

I guess I'll survive, but the world is a much scarier place without him.

Oh, and so you know, I don't even get a save. I have to cast protection from pissed off which has a duration (at my level) of about two hours.

I was going to write my "20 things" deal last night, but instead, I went to dinner.

And I didn't even pay! My friends Tom and Julie took me to dinner, and he had a shitload of points from AMEX that he turned into gift cards or something.

Dinner was GREAT, but bittersweet, because I found out Tom is going to take a job as...

Hey man.
I missed out on Living Colour last night at HOB. Lameness. Other plans wound up biting me in the fleshiest part of my ass. Flavah.

I hate do do this too you, but I'm not gonna be able to do the Coheed and Cambria show. Gonna be spending a day or 2 in NYC with a friend then driving back here with him for the xmas. I thought he was gonna travel after the 20th, but I'm most likely going to be out there the 18th.

In other news, I'm lobbying heavily for my family going to Vivere sometime around the xmas. We really don't make a big deal out of the 25th, so we usually treat ourselves to a bit of gastronomic hedonism. We've done chop houses in the past, but I'm pretty fucking sick of that.

Hey there, my friend. I've got a question for ya. I just put soy sauce all over my stirfry. MrGoose, who cooked this lovely dinner, says that to the cook, that's akin to putting ketchup on a filet. I disagree. He said, "Go ask DC2020!"

So here I am. What's your stance on the condiment issue?

wink

I hope you're doing well!

Mmmmmmm.....aligator sausage........YUM!

Funny thing is the only time I've ever had gator is when....long time ago.....in a galxy far far away......


No, wait, wrong story!


Ummmm.....I worked in a small hardware store in Houston and the owner had a cabin at a lake and he shot a gator that....well, the gator got a tad frisky with us. Anywho, he carved off the tail and cooked that bad boy.



Now, I'm sure that gator can taste yummy, but I don't think that was the best way to prepare it........cause it tasted nasty......kinda like spoiled fish. Like fish left out for a week in the hot sun. Like fish...... Well, you get the idea. YUCK! puke

Bleh. Not the best meal I've ever had.......by a damned long shot!

Hope all is rocking with you!

my sister, vinyle and i had the best fondue this past weekend and thought of you. it was a White truffle fondue with grilled focaccia bread accompanied by tomato-caper compote, mushroom duxelle & green olive tapenade. It was toe curling, orgasmic yum yum.

yum!

so is Rick Bayless a prick fuck?

On Saturday, I got to cook for Schiavona, and my cousin Clint. It was cool. Sunday, Clint and I went on a architectural tour of Chicago by river. It was super cool. I've lived here 4 years, and it was the first "touristy" thing I've done(I don't count museums). Unfortunately, it rained like crazy for about 1/3 of the trip, which made it not...

Oh my god! Now you're even cooler. A friend got me into checking the Hubble site regularly. Love. It.

Oh, Kitchen Confidential is fucking hilarious! I'm really enjoying it.
schiavona:
You so rock! It was great to meet you, and the food was to die for. Gods, that alone would make me want to move to Chico! I've been a bit.....well, let's just say the alligators and my ass have been seeing a lot of each other lately.

But, I did want to let you know (belatedly) how great it was to meet you, and how amazing the food and everything was that night.

Thanks man!

Oops.

Sorry, I was just venting a little about an ex-girl who's sorta come back around. The "fuck's" are frustration because now I have to deal with my unresolved feelings, and the "I deserve it" shit is because I do.

I need to be like a duck. Ever seen a wet duck? Duck's don't get wet, cause water just rolls off it's back. Duck's live...

Shit, man,

After mentioning that you were in need of kind words, this entry makes me send even more positive energy your way.

Give a shout if you need to get away from it all for a moment or two.

I celebrated my three year anniversary of being smoke-free today. Aug. 27th, 2002, I put out my last cigarette, and hopped a plane to visit cklarock.

CK: Dude, don't quit while you're out here! You'll be a dick the whole time!

Me: It'll be okay, I promise. I'm gonna use the patch.

One week later, I took over as exec. chef. If any of...

heh. please don't ever accept a friend request from anyone whose name starts with any letter between K and S. i love the way kikibh and my elbows touch up there.

Dude-- I was telling Kiki, but I forgot to tell you! Remember the girl that BTK grabbed because she was latina? That's the girl from Stephanie's neighborhood! And IIRC, they were about the same age!
