  1. My favorite sandwich is one that is made by someone else. Sure, I can make whatever but when someone else takes the time to make it For me it just has more appeal. Can apply this to almost any food... however, my fried egg, ham, cheese, pepper, etc. sandwich is tough to beat. Bacon grease.

  2. I've done Amazon Fulfillment, I choose that so they can handle everything (stocking, picking, shipping). It was odds and ends that I didn't want anymore, but were worth some money, and I didn't want to deal with eBay. So mostly it was about the ship it to Amazon and forget it.

     

    What kind of merchandise are we talking here? I have half a house of antiques, albums, etc. I'd like to get rid of for a fair price so we can get back to WNY..

  3. You have never been to Portillo's (Chicago).

     

    No iPads needed, just pencil and paper & short-hand system written on a bag. They have people in parking lot too taking orders.

     

    Portillo's is great, they opened one up down here last year... about as close as it gets to Teds. Decent food at a good price.

    We have chicfila's around here but haven't been to one in over 10 years, the lines and traffic are a hassle just for a chicken sandwich.

  4. Love me some QOTSA. I saw them on their last tour and it was a fantastic show. Looking forward to the new album dropping. Did any of you get into Homme's side project with Iggy Pop, Post Pop Depression? Its not my cup of tea. Dem Crooked Vultures and Desert Sessions however, good stuff.

     

    I like it quite a bit but have always liked the Stooges/Iggy... Gardenia is the new take a walk on the wild side, whole album is pretty good, Homme was a good compliment.

  5. Long John Silvers has a $1.99 deal... seems like for forever, one piece of fried cod, and two hush puppys. It's not on their online menu but it is at the one around here anyways.


    The one by us is a cash machine! It is ALWAYS packed! It's got to rival the Chik-fil-A's for fortune making ability. The food is pretty good, but I generally stay away due to the crowds (more in the parking lot than inside, as they are pretty efficient).

     

    It really is... and the Chik here too. The highly touted cheddar/broccoli soup tastes great (and is salty as $%^&) going in but after an hour it reminds me of any river in China... polluted and basically, unpleasant.

  6.  

    Just as a measure of how insane a shot that is: He's hitting a target about the size of a pie plate at two miles, which is an accuracy about four times better than your typical match-grade rifle and ammo available (and about ten times better than your typical military rifle.) And a bullet over that distance will drop about three hundred yards. Which means he's not firing at the target, he's firing at a point a quarter-mile above the target and dropping the bullet onto it.

     

    And he probably had to take between five and ten shots, just to get the range and wind deflection.

     

    You left out the curve of the earth at that distance... don't skimp on details.

  7. I'm pretty sure it was a Wawa's (but could be wrong) and it was almost a market place inside with a wine selection. I had my wine at the hotel on ice, but no opener. I asked, and they apologized for running out.

     

     

    If you sell a bunch of wine (especially in a resort town), selling a method to get at it makes sense.

    Gotcha. Odds are it wasn't a Wawa... they make their stores all the same and don't have much in the way of a wine selection at all. Hope you got it opened though.

  8. Lived in FL a long time, but I think I had my first Wawa experience in Orlando last month (for NCAA tourney :) ). VERY impressed. They were so upset they had run out of corkscrews they fell all over themselves apologizing (in a lousy neighborhood). I didn't think there was a chance they'd have one, but the Uber driver said give it a shot. More than I expected, especially in that area.

    Don't get the corkscrew angle... been to the local Wawa hundreds of times and wouldn't even know where to look for one there.
