Reviser! Reviser!

I dropped by to see what bit of lusciousness you've been cooking up and see that you've written about AC/DC. There's not a better band to dance my little heart out drunkenly to.

Thanks, that link worked.

Yes, I'm feeling better. I just have a crazy brain... Thank you for asking.

And how are you?

Holla.

An ogre, eh? You're a sweet guy, but we've all got it in us. An ogre with his cereal is a great visual and may, in fact, be worthy of a sketch.

Sorry you woke up with a sad day. That's always a drag, especially when it catches you off gaurd. I'm right with your approach, though. when you catch yourself feelin that feelin,' you've gotta build in a treat. It keeps the balance right and can keep the weight of the world at bay.

Your book story rings true to me. Crypronomicon was shelved for a week when I decided that it was, in no way, bed reading. I usually keep something pulpy on the bedside table just so it doesn't really bother me when I have to repeat one thought over and over again - fighting my eyes and mind to just kep going. Good fight though. Indicative of engrossing reading.

Spring certainly looks and sounds fantastic. Generally, I'm not a big poached egg guy, but when you know a kitchen's got it going on, you've gotta strip away your opinions and put yourself in the hands of people who know. I love culinary surrender. It's definitely on my short list of favorite surrenders.

Green Zebra was really close to my old place, but I never managed to eat there. I was going to go there with a friend when she came into town, but we found ourselves in the wonderful position of 'too many restaurants, too little time.'

I always found serious satisfaction in tastings for people who really knew and really gave a shit about their experience. Personally, it may have been more satisfying from behind the line - just being able to take a breath and do something off the books.

Your pork and green chili stew has been festering in my mind. Sooner or later, I'm gonna have to take the idea and start playing with variations on the theme. I don't give myself enough opportunity to adventure in the kitchen anymore. Lately, though, the voice has been back in my ear. I didn't even know I missed it.

Near...Far has cracked me up a couple of times since you mentioned it. Jest sneaking into my head and poking at me until I break and giggle.

If you're down, I have an old friend in town for a couple of weeks and I think you two would be on the same page in a number of respects. He's just a quiet, well read, and amazingly insightful guy who can just take a concept and run with the extrapolation. Great guy. One of the ones that matters.

Psychic libido has, from time to time, proven to be the best libido. When you feel it, and know it's got a hold, it's time for one of the other surrenders.

Now I have to go listen to Cheap Trick.

OOOOH!
The morels are almost here, no?
The man in my head is telling me to mate them with quail eggs. The possibilities abound.

Lust thoughts, my friend. Lusty thoughts.

Green chile stew, insert here ------>

I love the idea. In fact, i think it's brilliant!

What restauant do you work at? I love food. I went to the Inn at Little Washington and fell in love. What are some of your favorite restaurants and favorite foods to cook? Lot's of ?'s huh? I told you, i love good food!

Just stoppin' by to say hello!

Welcome aboard man.

I'm still smelling the foods you cooked for your bro and Sophie, your a genius ma man.





Now cracka please!

Stow away that T.O. Haterade your dishing out Phulease

I love knowing cops around the city. In my experience, as long as you're not the one they're looking for, they have no interest in bullshitting you. It was always nice to know the Lakeview cops and see them as fallable, kind, protective human beings. I know it's not universal - far from it, but I'm glad for the experience I've had.

I remember a year or so ago, there were a couple of murders in Boystown, and being affiliated with a business in the neighborhood, they never jerked us around. They definitely knew enough to see that if some seedy stuff was afoot in the neighborhood, the folks at the tattoo shop may have gotten wind of it.

Long preface. I'm clearly not into the whole brevity thing. Sorry 'bout that.

I'm sure Ron's cop buddy has heard just about everything there is to hear about the Daley investigation, and what he said doesn't surprise me in the least. I don't think the current crop of politicians are, generally, clever or skilled enough to hide an electronic trail from the feds. They just can't have it in 'em. Harold Washington was a great Mayor, and I'd be glad to see the city I love back in the hands of someone who can prioritize the city before their family's legacy.

Wishful thinking, eh? One politician leaves, another takes their place. Still, I can't totally give up hope. My gut tells me that, unless he's assasinated first (distince possibility) that Barak Obama has a fighting chance at being our first President of color. More wishful thinking? Maybe.

Hey, thanks for the restaurant info. I'll be sure to let you know if my husband MrGoose and I check it out. Welcome to SG and thanks for the friend add.

Yes, I'm very talented. You should see what else I can balance on my head!



Hmm. Not really sure what that could even be, but darn it, it seemed funny!
