Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys and Girls-

Its Time!


GROOVERIDERS CULINARY ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS- 2003!!!!!!!!

The dinners were great! You guys have outdone yourselves!
It was not an easy task, choosing who wins and who goes home to commit a ceremonial suicide out of shame.

So- without further ado- lets hand out the GCAAs!



* Best Chick-Food, Best Quantity and Most Choices in one meal awards- Citrus for Grilled Salmon, Vegi Smorgasbord and wine.


* Most fun to be had while playing with food- Invisigirl.

nuff said.


* Best meal cooked by less then competent chefs combined with special award for bravery in tackling the unknown perils of the modern kitchen-

This year the award will be shared by mrsarcasm and SoEffinHappy.


Gentlemen- While your food may not be as good as the ladies


I Salute You!



* Dish best consumed wearing full armor and in the company of an axe wielding, foul mouthed, painted up Celtic warrior-

Abbadon, with a dish of haggis, neeps and tatties.




* Best last minute save from a totally wrong dish for Grooverider (scallops fried with bacon and white wine) and as a result- an extra award for Best Vegi Menu- Ten with
sweet potato, pepper & halloumi bake with rocket dressed in lemon and chilli oil. followed by pear crumble.






That colcludes this years award ceremony- well have Paul McCartney sing the ending song- written especially for this event!

I truly thank you all!



And to other news-


Following on a former entry, I have decided to take your advice, overcome my fears and go buy me some underwear.

So- there I was, one cluless Grooverider in the middle of Macys underwear section, trying to figure out what the hell I need to buy.

I mean- put me in a music store and Im in my ellement- I can tell you how what kind of wood Im after, the exact finish that was discontinued in 1967, but is now available through a custom drum company from MD, down to whether the washers on the tension rod should be steel or plastic

Cut back to macys.

First of all- why cant I find MY size?!? Why is there always an abundance of one larger, one smaller ane everything else beside what I actually need?!?

Two- why the fuck do I have to look at some gay model guys abs on the box?!?
Dont get me wrong- Im not homophobic, or insecure of my sexuality, but GIVE ME A BREAK FOR FUCKSAKE, OKAY?!?









well,












umm.











FINE- ILL SAY IT-

I WANNA HAVE ABS LIKE THAT TOO, OKAY?!?





Urrrrrgggggghhh- the ambivalence of being a 2003 man.


oh yeah- i got 2 pairs for now- to see if i like'm- one of ck's 'boxer briefs' (thanks j!) and one ck 'trunks'. both black- naturally. (i usually wear black.)

now- i'm a strict boxer guy, so this is definitely a change.
my impressions? hmmm... while you loose some of the boxers freedom, there is something to be said for the tighter design.
i'll spare y'all the longer version of my take on underwear models and how they feel on my body.

an essay on the subject is available through my private email for any of you curious female members.



Subject switch-

Your homework assingment for today is to find me an entertaining/informative/addictive website so I can pass the time at day-job-hell.


Here are some of my favorites- in no particulat order:

a funny excercise in making a website, some kid from canada drew these- i think they're cool- especially 'space cadet', i love this music!, these guys are funny- i saw them last sat. and we spoke for a while.

okay- be good brothers ans sistah's

Big Up!
G.
