Re: IPAs

As a fan of IPAs well before the hipsters found it, I think that Coors tastes like what I imagine the urine of someone who has imbibed one too many IPAs would taste like. It’s not like the brewery doesn’t know how to make tasty beer. Just that the flagship beer is geared towards someone who doesn’t ...

Re: Picky eaters

Using salt to clean is a great idea! Why didn’t I think of that! I also have a dedicated spice (coffee) grinder but I have been using a damp paper towel to clean and then leaving it open to air dry overnight.

If someone formed their opinion of Joe based on how you and Fox News portray him, I'd wager they're a bit surprised.

Re: What happened to the immigration thread?

It is a way to extend meals and mellow some of the pungent tastes of seafood and native tubers. Plantains are coming for you though. If you say so. They're just so starchy, to me.

Re: Another mass shooting

Not to make light of the shooting, but if Mr Acree had registered as a candidate for high office as a member of the MAGA cult the rubes would have paid his back taxes and legal fees. Or he could just ignore paying taxes forever

Unfortunately our “role and presence” in the Middle ...

Close to 2/3rds of Republican voters think Trump is a good candidate even if convicted of a felony. I'd assume that close to 2/3rds of Dem voters would vote for a rock if that was their nominee. We're at the point now where the majority of people aren't voting for a candidate; they are voting for t...

Re: an even more frightening perspective

The better comeback would have been “there’s sun in San Francisco?” I don’t know which is scarce, sun or parking lots!!

I live down off the fog bank that both are plentiful.
