Saturday Overnight Open Thread (3/16/19)
Two men grow up together, but after college one moves to Maryland and the other to Texas. They agree to meet every ten years in Florida to play golf and catch up with each other. At age 32 they meet, finish their round of golf and head for lunch. “Where you wanna go?” “Hooters.” “Why Hooters?” “They have those servers with the beautiful bosoms, the tight shorts, and the gorgeous legs.” “You’re on.” At age 42, they meet and play golf again. “Where you wanna go for lunch?” “Hooters.” “Again? Why?” “They have cold beer, big screen TVs, and side action on the games.” “OK.” At age 52 they meet and play again. “So where you wanna go for lunch?” “Hooters. “Why?” “The food is pretty good and there’s plenty of parking.” “OK.” At age 62 they meet again. After a round of golf, one says, “Where you wanna go?” “Hooters.” “Why?” “Wings are half price and the food isn’t too spicy.” “Good choice” At age 72 they meet again. Once again, after a round of golf, one says, “Where shall we go for lunch?” “Hooters.” “Why?” “They have six handicapped parking spaces right by the door and they have senior discounts.” “Great choice.” At age 82 they meet and play again. “Where should we go for lunch?” “Hooters.” “Why?” “Because we’ve never been there before.” “Okay.”

It might be the best city in the world, I'm still not moving there.
Vienna has been ranked the most liveable city in the world for the 10th year in a row. The Austrian capital topped the new Mercer Quality of Living Survey, whose 2019 ranking was dominated by European cities. Thirteen out of the world’s 20 best places to live are in Europe. Zurich, Switzerland's biggest city, came in second place for overall quality of living, followed by Auckland, Munich and Vancouver in joint third place. The Canadian city has ranked the highest of any North American city over the past decade.

Electric shock for the Johnson? It seems to be in the in thing.
When men struggle to perform in the bedroom due to erectile dysfunction, most resort to Viagra or Cialis. But a few brave souls strap their penises to low-intensity extracorporeal shockwaves, as part of a therapy known as ESWT. It involves painless acoustic waves stimulating blood flow and, in theory, this should lead to better and more frequent erections.

STATESVILLE, N.C. - A former Statesville officer, who had been on the run for weeks after lying to police, turned himself in Thursday. They said he filed a false police report by claiming someone stole his unmarked police car. Search warrants in the case said Christopher Rivera, a former Statesville police officer, claimed someone hit him in the face outside his apartment and stole his police car. Seven hours later, it was found wrecked about 5 miles away.

Little Johnny is hanging out with Grandpa on the weekend.
Grandpa lights a cigarette and little Johnny says he wants one too.
Grandpa asks "Does your penis reach your anus?"
Little Johnny checks. "No, Grandpa."
"Then you aren't old enough to have a cigarette," says Grandpa.
Later, Grandpa cracks open a beer. Little Johnny wants one. Grandpa asks "Does your penis reach your anus?"
"No Grandpa"
"Then you aren't old enough to drink beer."
Later, Little Johnny gets some cookies out of his backpack that his mom had packed for his snack. Grandpa eyes them and they look pretty good.
"Little Johnny, could I have one of those cookies?" he asks.
"Does your penis reach your anus, Grandpa?" Little Johnny asks.
"Why yes it does Little Johnny" says Grandpa.
"Well then go f*ck yourself, these are my cookies" Little Johnny replies.

Daytime threads, there is a frequent poster, "Sponge" who will often proclaim, "FIRST!!!!!" deep into the comments-- sometimes over 100 or more. As a joke, I started posting "Sponge" as commenter "FIRST!!!!!" It seems to be becoming a meme. And it's fun.

I stayed at a business hotel in a Russian provincial city in the mid-2000's. Being a business hotel, the hotel room had a pen and stationery with the hotel's name and address on it. The address given for the hotel on the stationery was still USSR - fifteen years after the fall of the Soviet Union.
I thought: "This hotel ordered a lot of stationary at some point."

Watch the driver. He can't even see over the hood. Way too long in relation to the height of the driver's seat, and then for some reason, they put some kind of protuberance at the very end just to make sure he can't see whatever it is he's running over.

O'Rourke, 46, also said he was "mortified" when he reread the violent fiction he wrote as a teen, which received fresh attention Friday after a Reuters report outlined his involvement in a hacker group as a teen. O'Rourke wrote a handful of posts on the group's message board under the name "Psychedelic Warlord," including a fictional piece he penned when he was 15 about children getting run over by a car.

Better there than in practice where the majority are.
If a doctor has admitting privileges at a major hospital he must pass their board of review. These facilities don't take second stringers.
Therefore if one chooses a doc with privileges at an A+ hospital then one may assume he's an A+ doctor.

It's obviously a surplus mobile crane chassis. Problem is, they built up the cab over the location of the former crane systems body, which is if course, way the hell too far aft on the real-estate.
All kinds of way to design a more useful cab and cabin, further forward, likely lofted a foot n' a half or so. Which would leave room for a nice, staked flatbed or cargo box to sit where the cab is now.
And then the thing would be perhaps slightly useful for more than just sand-candy.
If they want to perfect the thing, they need to hire me. I'd install a few pintle and ring mounts for some nice belt fed hardware, too.
And I'd paint it in a Texas Flag motif, of course.

1 slightly rounded teaspoon, ordinary black pepper.
1 level teaspoon, cayenne pepper.
1 tablespoon, garlic powder.
Use bone-in, skin-on, large chicken breasts. The bone adds more flavor than you might imagine. "Boneless-Skinless" is flavorless dreck, in comparison.
Bone-in thighs have the most flavor though.
Bone-between thighs has the most fun. (thought I'd type that in before y'all pervs jumped on the chance soon as I hit "post") lol
You can add slightly to those ingredient quantities I listed, but go slowly, a batch at a time.
That stuff can get HOT, and damn FAST.
400 degree oven, UN-greased baking sheet, cook till the breading shows about 5% to 10% char. That'll be appx 35 to 40 min. for large breasts.
Serve with ice cold beer.
Enjoy!

I've got 5.3 lbs. of top brisket that "calls for" 3hrs. of smoking @275, then wrapped in foil, in a pan and 1C water added before smoking for another hour.
If I put it in the slow-cooker tonight, brisket still chilly, @275, low, can I expect something delicious tomorrow? ...or might it be hideous?
I can use the grill with wood chips tomorrow, but I'd rather avoid the weather and get it out of the way tonight.

I'm finally taking lessons after learning little bits over the years and acquiring three guitars. The one thing kicking my ass? Strumming the acoustic. Or, rather, the strums where you skip the strings on a particular up or down stroke.
Which reminds me, I haven't practiced today. BBIA half hour or so.

Jewells, an axe that's been played over the years will sound better than if it had never been played at all, although we'd all love to get our hands on an old vintage guitar that's been forgotten in someone's closet for a long time. Something about the vibrations that helps age the wood and the resin.
I'm sure he'd let you borrow it back if you asked him real nice. A B7 chord is murder for me to try to play. After all these years of playing one note at a time, any more notes than that frightens and confuses me.

Interesting, there clearly was a mechanical that forced one of the "solo" planes out of the show - the two solo planes did only one of their show-center moves, while the diamond of 4 circle for their next thing, then - nothing. And one of the spares fired up, taxied, and took off. But no announcement, which is odd. Anybody who knows these performances could tell immediately. Anyway, I think they threw in some extra stuff at the end, too.
Kind of shocked and disappointed by the decline in static displays over the last few years. Part of it is, of all things (I think) NATO defense spending issues. There used to be British Apache helos and personnel there (they used the ranges in AZ), and Dutch F-16s (they trained at Luke AFB in AZ), even Luftwaffe over from Holloman in NM. And more domestic historical aircraft.
There was an F-35, 2nd time I've ever seen one. Pilot wasn't very flexible - asked him if I could play with the hush-hush high tech helmet that they use, he said nah, it costs $400K and is sorta secret.

I've always boiled a corned beef until it was fork tender, then cooled it back down before slicing.
I usually use the leftover cooking liquid for boiling the root vegetables and cabbage.
I bet smoking it would be fantastic though, and I'm sure slow-cooker would be fine as well.

President Moreno apparently has referred to the Union as replicating the worst vices of the 21st Century, and referred to the building itself as an ode to waste

There was a famous scene in one of 'em where some babe had a wardrobe malfunction with one of those outfits and her tits popped out.
That was cut, of course, but included was a scene with Kirk, Spock, and McCoy with shit-eating grins on their faces.

Here's a good-humored song about the difficulties of having an Ulsterman for a dad and a mother who was truly of the shamrock: "The Orange and the Green."
Sung by the Irish Rovers and the Six-String Soldiers (a bluegrass group within the U.S. Army Field Band): it's delightful to watch as well as listen to because the players and singers are obviously having a wonderful time together.

They are are serious about buskers there. Want to get your busk on at the beach? Tough titty. There are signs and everything: "NO BUSKING". There's even a fine.
I was a little scared, because I had never heard the word and didn't know what it meant. What if I was just buskish by nature? What if I were just busking along in my wonted busky way, oblivious to the offense, and a passel of Mounties came along and threw me in busking jail? What do they even do to you in busking jail? I don't think I'd flourish in that kind of environment.
Anyway someone in the group who lived there knew what it meant and assured us that, whatever our diverse and manifold defects of character, we were not, at that moment, buskers. Which was quite a relief, let me tell you.

It is not a true Robespierre moment unless she tried to shoot herself in advance of being seized by the mob, and only managed to blow off her lower jaw, was left untreated on a conference table until it was obvious that she would not die on her own, and then beheaded in the public square while in excruciating pain after a summary trial notable only by disinterest.

Peppers are one of the things mom grabs every time we go to the grocery store. Needed or not.
"We have those, mom, see - not on the list"
"No, we NEED them" (no convincing her)
Get home, unpack groceries -
"Oh ! Look! We have peppers right here!"
Sigh. At least they are something healthy.

*HAH!*
Dad would eat most anything, even before the diagnosis. He's not focused on any-given-thing. Besides shellfish, he's an Omnivore.
...and salad. He keeps taking my chicken breasts and low-sodium buns when I expressly made them for the mega-freaking salad.
He avoids my salads like The Plague. I've tried everything, but The Five-Year-Old is stuck in his ways.
...while eating me out of House-and-Home.

It is fun to be able to impress her with what she thinks is a new dish when in reality she used to make it all the time.
She won't complain if she doesn't like something we make, but we do tend to cater to her likes. (Nothing with any hint of spicy! - she doesn't even like catsup!! "Oh that burns my mouth all the way to my stomach!")
My son likes to experiment with new recipes, and she likes to 'help' so she is still involved with the process

Because Columbus, Ohio didn't take to it. Seriously.
That is the "epicenter" of taste buds and dialect for these Great United States of America.
More companies test their "New Foods" in Columbus, Ohio than in any other city in the nation.
Media companies also teach the "Midwest Dialect" by showing them Ohio news-readers.

This is true. Also, Wendy's was started there along with White Castle.
For some reason, Midwest taste buds are just the generalized feedback group companies are looking for.

Skyline has a lot of cinnamon and it is bland. I have No Idea how people eat that shit.
They have to drown it in onions, cheese and hot sauce just to Fuck-Up a hotdog.

That's a great story! Isn't it cool what sticks with us from our childhood?
I remember my mom laughing as I got into a patch of jalepeno peppers she had planted in the garden. Somehow, I squished one and got it in my mouth.
Her laugh was a way of calling me an idiot. I don't disagree.
