I've been meaning to post about my last weekend since, er, last weekend.
I went to Savannah, GA for the first time ever for a friend's 30th birthday weekend for 4 days. Unbelievable.
The 15 of us truly got the most out of Savannah, (which is stunning), and then the most out of some alcohol and some antics-prone people back at our hotel.

i will get you your recipe, good sir.
vegemite:
Plantains with Rum and Brown Sugar:
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup light brown muscavado sugar
3 ripe plantains, peeled and sliced on the bias into 1/2-inch thick slices
1/2 cup dark rum
Heat butter in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the sugar and cook until melted. Add the plantains and cook until soft and heated through. Remove pan from the heat, add the rum, return to the heat and cook until the alcohol has reduced.
serve with a bone-in pork shoulder marinated in orange and lime w/ cilantro. Unless of, course you're a veg head, in which case serve with tempeh in adobo sauce
or in a sweet pineapple mole - this guy is the king of mole. OK, maybe not the king, but a good source nonetheless.

SG Tech Tip of the Day
If you're using Windows, check your Temporary Internet Files folder. I just deleted about 40MB of junk in there that came from SG.
I don't know what happens on a Mac.
Bad SG.

OK, OK. I know I'm a pervert. Maybe that was a silly question.

i'd like to see you try.
Work, work work.
If I owe you any work, I do plan on getting to it, right after I do the incredible amounts of other work I owe everybody else. Thank you.
And am I really not supposed to run the toaster oven and the tv at the same time? I've been blowing a circuit breakers every time.
WTF?????

My New Year's Eve was pretty cool.
I have a dire need to flee New York CIty that night, the world's largest, most expensive, and potentially maddening Rookie Night of the year.
So I went to New Orleans. Lots of fun. (Especially when we stepped in to our last bar at 7 AM.) Someone should really do their senior thesis in anthropology or sociology analyzing...

You are out of control if Jena Bush's pussy is involved...that's a sign something's gone wrong.
I'm jealous you went to New Orleans. I haven't been since before Katrina for more than a drive-through on the way to Texas. I refuse to participate in Mardi Gras, for obvious reaons.
I'm ending my membership, man. Write me sometime.

Christmas was weird as far as the gifts were concerned. I got a couple of things for myself, natch, and got something REAL big from the good lord, as it were.
I wanted to wait until all the news was positive to say anything to anyone about this. I haven't even told most of my closest friends because I didn't want anyone showering me with...

I was well taken-care-of in Atlanta this past week, meeting fun new people from SGAtl and getting taken to fun new places. Glad to report that i even got to go to my favorite rib joint in the world.. This place is so country that i ordered a rib sandwich, and what they brought to my table was a quarter slab stuck in between...

You are hilarious! Mollie and I had a great time last night, even if we missed the ribs. I'm glad you came out and hope you make it home ok. Next time you're here we're hitting the Clermont-sometimes they even have a lady that can smoke a cigarette with an orifice other than her mouth!
Lolita is a masterpiece. It's been a while since I've read it but I envy all of Nabokov's students at Stanford back in the day. Imagine that guy teaching your lit class!
