Meh, it's pretty much all garbage. We ate at some former contestant on Top Chef and hottest young chef in Dublin's restaurant, and everything is just off on seasoning. Especially when it's Euro brethren Spain, Italy, France and Belgium put out such good food. Great people though, the best really. Happy hour in Dublin is awesome.The Irish had a good base for their food but they neglected to season anything correctly
Drew Magary does a "Hater's Guide to the Williams-Sonoma Catalog" every year around this time and it's one of my favorite annual internet reads.
That rock is pretty special though.
I watched the "Crafting a Nation" doc about local brew guys setting up their shops. Not a bad netflix watch. All these dudes preached about the struggle of starting out, times being a bit lean financially, unexpected hiccups, etc... Pretty much every overworked/underpaid sap has a lot of similar issues starting out in a career (to a lesser degree, obvs). Maybe we all shouldve just actually chosen something we enjoy and went into biz for ourselves instead of rat racing our lives away in our current jobs.
I mean it amazes me that there are people out there that get up in the morning and enjoy going to their job and it doesnt make them want to headbutt bricks.
The Nashville Symphony and Chorus does a Home Alone concert every year where they play the soundtrack live along with the movie. I've been meaning to go the last few years but I always forget about it because it's on a random weekday.
I was using it as an illustrative example.Max, you do realize that is last year's Hater's Guide. 2016 is coming this week. That was hilarious. I might make some of those bacon date fig things on my own though. (for less than $49.95)
The Grinch with Jim Carey sucks
(that's not your heart, NKY GYERO friend)It really is awful. But Cindy Lou Who grew up to be a pretty good singer and she likes to get partially naked and act like a slut that I would like to know carnally. So that movie will always have a special place in my heart.
I wouldn't want it as my regular/national cuisine, but there is nothing "awful" about a legit Fish & Chips or Shepherd's Pie.

Tried to watch it last night. It did not age well.
And I absolutely love Bill Murray.
Nice bookend to UK's season really.From Nick Roush on KSR:
Sources tell KSR Petrino used the same signals vs. Kentucky that he used while Thomas was on Louisville’s staff.
Normally I would attribute this kind of thing to "LOL YOU'RE COACH DUMB" but with Bob I think it can be attributed to pure unbridled arrogance. Why bother changing signals if you have no doubt you're going to win?
I watched it Sunday afternoon, and it aged just fine.
