The Poojer

that's an interesting situation though, how does second hand smoke affect someone? In the past month I have been at concerts where there was heavy smoking all around me. I don't smoke and I am not in any danger of having to take a drug test(probably just jinxed that by saying it out loud). But how likely is it that being in outdoor proximity of pot smoking gets picked up in a drug test and do they go by levels of thc in the test?

i was leaving a show saturday night in Camden, NJ, got to my lot and kind of had to pee and at least a 30 minute ride home. For an instant, considered whipping it out along side my car, but then realized it wasn't a savage. As I leave and turn to get on the bridge back home, there's a dude, peeing on a building without any concern for people driving and walking by....people are strange...

I do, i have seen some great ones in the bowels of the Philly Septa system...also have seen some that plain suck. If I have cash I throw in a buck for those that are at least trying...but i rarely carry cash....

was the band playing at least decent?

It's an entirely different year of life

I'm doing everything I can, and stop calling everyone Shirley

I won't deceive you Mr. Striker, you're running out of time!

I know what you mean, but what does beer taste like? grass? pine trees? juniper berries? bananas? all of those flavors have been part of beer for ever, a good pilsener urquell has strong hints of grass, a good hefeweizen is judged on how well the esters from the yeast impart a banana flavor into the beer. Oyster Stouts have been around since Victorian time, they don't "taste like" oysters, they simply have a hint of a taste that you can pick out on your tongue, the rest is pure "beer flavor". Now more to your point, these new Root Beer Beers to me is garbage, the Radlers. shandy's etc....that is where i am on your side. Bottom line, as long as YOU enjoy what you are drinking, that is all that matters, but do yourself a favor, every once in a while, step outside your comfort zone and try a new style of beer, not saying you'll like it, but who knows. Forever, the thought of sours repulsed me, now Sours are the latest beer craze, I keep sampling them and more often than not I find myself saying, "Hey, that's not half bad"....beer is fun.

last year i mixed the Flying Dog Dead Rise and Pearl Necklace beers, figured oysters and old bay are a good fit together...it was very good. What i really want to try is the Wynkoop Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout, but that hasn't made it's way east yet

no different than an oyster stout and they have been around for years and there are some VERY good ones out there.

I'm in...just got the deets, pick up/drop off locations and my required attire....

My youngest(17) is into skateboarding, after watching him at skateparks and skateshops, I have a new appreciation for the people that are in the sport. I always saw them as slacker/stoners and while that may be the case, the way they interact at skateparks with encouragement and support and the skate shops with their product knowledge and again, willingness to help and share, it's all pretty impressive. maybe i haven't been exposed to a lot, but in my area, the local parks and shops all produced the jackass crew. I am really enjoying the whole scene....you'd never get my fat ass on a board, but i am becoming a fan.

I'm still not convinced it was all the baby and his/her family....the difficulty in making 3 'full size' pancakes is still a sticky point with me

Moi????

I am surprised Julius Peppers and Dwight Freeney are both 35, not sure why, but i thought Peppers was much younger than Freeney...

Not cool!!!

didn't really go over my head, i was answering his question about the band Wilco and who their drummer was, I thought he was being sincere

Nope, Glenn(Kotche).

i want the lemon tree

I'll take his fois gras

I seriously hope that once you hit post, you stood up, pretended to drop the microphone and exit the stage....it was worthy of that kind of gesture!

They do, or at least they used to

who moved this and changed the title of the thread? bad things, man....bad things....

yes please....with a cup of butter on the side....

my advice is to get an early start on your WNY trip
