Let's give it a try
My daughter took one look and said; "It's a 'Maurader's Map.' Kewl."
Adding haterz™ at a rate of one per minute. Fun lazy Saturday stuff. Sitting on the porch, the stream trickling by through the yard, a squirrel engaged in a "discussion" with a Stellar's Jay. Glass of two buck chuck and homebrew waiting for dinner. I'm okay with the hot fudge sundaes and corn on the cob and double flashed steak fries but the chicken. Anybody familiar with Coca Cola Chicken? At first I was skeptical but carmel, sugar, water... not that far from teriaki. We'll see.
Got a load of fresh super jumbo shrimp from the GOM delivered last night, straight off the midnight truck. Put 'em on the BBQ and had a sweet meal. I wonder what flavor Top Ramen Snowflake is eating tonight? ROFL.
Went and did a few errands with The Spouse, now am home with some chicken breasts marinating, and the fixings for a lamb & lentil experiment in the fridge for tomorrow.
Today: slept in, spent the rest of the day out playing in the Big Blue Room. Tomorrow: Attending to some family business, then getting some work done around the cave. Monday: See today.
slaving away in the lab, getting more numbers for the dissertation, whilst contemplating an unsolicited job offer from a search engine company Dining in my office on a concoction of split pea soup, special k, and chili sauce.
Meh, deep fried coke is alright but the dirty jocks are way ahead of you - they've been deep frying mars bars and creme eggs for a long time now. Pizzas too. In fact, just about anything that can be put in a fryer (although i've yet to hear of any heroin/methodadone frying experiments)
I guess that's what you have to eat when you've pissed all your money away on a rubbish parliament building!
I can tolerate many, many things but those things do not include an f-ed OS. While I spent some years with UNIX, I skipped linux in hopes of making a living. BTW, O Brother, Where Art Thou? is on IFC now - so I'm busy watching that too. Too much input, too little time.
Ohhhh. Tom, the chicken w/coke cook is here and I must say it was a success. Then again him having just poured an outstanding homebrewed Rasberry Imperial Stout I'm probably compromised. He's saying it isn't his best but I'm saying it is a gold medal contender.
Yeah, it would seem everyone knows I was raised in West Marin and born somewhere in L.A. and that's why I don't particpate as others do in general society.
I would be a normal person enjoying being with people real-time if it weren't for those damn LSD experiments I didn't ask for. And I remain functional unlike KC Kool-Aid case.
Akubi: Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is the BEST worst movies ever made. The loon who begins killing at the end was based on Phil Spector. Notice how he commits one of the murders, and think of Lana Clarkson, God rest her soul.
Murst? First and Moist?
ReplyDeleteMurst 2.0
ReplyDeleteEast Coast Haterz Rule
ReplyDeleteNo thanks. I'd prefer not to add myself to a free for all GPS, BTW.
ReplyDeletethere are Haterz coast to coast
ReplyDeleteSweet!
It's not just across the country. It is clearly international.
ReplyDeleteThat map is crazy. Dawgs plugged in.
ReplyDeleteflying monkey mispronounced your blog name...she says..."ex-bourbon-nation-dot-blogspot-dot-com"
ReplyDeleteone bourbon, one scotch, one beeeeer......
EAST COAST HATERS RULE!!!
ReplyDeleteWe are bigger and better!!
That is very interesting. Perhaps more scientific than Stephanie J's unscientific Haterz poll.
ReplyDeleteSoem other stats, there from Caseypedia:
ReplyDeleteMost viewed pages
1. Main Page [6,244]
2. Galina Serin [1,745]
3. Nigel Swaby [1,437]
4. Casey Serin [1,272]
Casey is the THIRD most popular person on his own blog?
Murse-boi clearly needs to ditch his dead weight and get Nigel and Galina pushed out, so he can enjoy all sweet page views himself!
Hi Mort!
ReplyDeleteWhats the BUZZ????
te he

ReplyDeleteWTF?
ReplyDeleteGeez, I'd be out swimming if it weren't for the breeze.
I have huge chicken issues I'd prefer not to disclose.

I've had Dr. Pepper carnitas, Coca-cola in a pinch, Sprite was there's nothing left in the pantry.
ReplyDeleteCoca Cola Chicken? Come on... details. Inquiring Badjers need to know!
ReplyDelete... *when* there's nothing left...
ReplyDeleteWent and did a few errands with The Spouse, now am home with some chicken breasts marinating, and the fixings for a lamb & lentil experiment in the fridge for tomorrow.
ReplyDelete7-Up cake, baby.
ReplyDeleteClusters of Haterz in Florida, DC, New York and Cali.
ReplyDeleteShout out to the Aussies, Canada, Japan, Germany, and UK.
Kewel.
Nice pics all.
Today: slept in, spent the rest of the day out playing in the Big Blue Room.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow: Attending to some family business, then getting some work done around the cave.
Monday: See today.
Hong Kong Haterz too!
ReplyDeleteGENTLEMEN,
ReplyDeleteOf course, one could leave out the chicken entirely, and simply deep-fry the Coca-Cola.
(Also, if you look at the comments for the NPR article, you can see that Pepsi-infused chicken is a delicacy in China.)
I remain,
M. SINGH

This is kewl...... :o)
ReplyDeleteDorothy Parker fan f-ing around with Vista here.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one hatin' on Vista even more than KC at the moment?
ReplyDeleteWhat a PoS OS.
Akubi, my x64 linux seems to be hatin on Flash so I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteI can tolerate many, many things but those things do not include an f-ed OS. While I spent some years with UNIX, I skipped linux in hopes of making a living. BTW, O Brother, Where Art Thou? is on IFC now - so I'm busy watching that too. Too much input, too little time.
ReplyDeleteI use Macs for the most part, so I just have sympathy for Vista users. It looks purty, but everyone I know using it hates it.
ReplyDeleteI'm shocked you don't own the DVD of O Brother!
Maybe I'll watch that later on my AppleTV, which does not suck as a media center like Vista's does...
Jeffrey,
ReplyDeleteGiven multiple input mechanisms, I tend to remain puzzled: are you Homey and/or Brian05?
I stuffed my face with a burrito in between doing my actual W-2 Looser job today. AND...Last fundraising push for next weekend's Autism walk in NYC.
ReplyDeleteAkubi, i am not Homey, just an ordinary hater.
ReplyDeleteI was "brian" for that call because i called in, they needed a pin, so i keyed in 555-555-5555 and to my surprise, it worked.
Bigger version.
ReplyDeleteDawg, could you use your Seekret Admin Skills to do the [name your map] and [update url] biz?
Will add a link from Caseypedia Haterz page.
Bangkok, Thailand and Austria Chime into EN.
ReplyDeleteIn additon to the other feeds and Vista crap Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is on now. Damn it is good to have a reason to hate on parents.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh. Tom, the chicken w/coke cook is here and I must say it was a success. Then again him having just poured an outstanding homebrewed Rasberry Imperial Stout I'm probably compromised. He's saying it isn't his best but I'm saying it is a gold medal contender.
ReplyDeleteSWEET changes in the map.

ReplyDeleteAnd, oh, M. Singh is my hero.
She's kickin Casey's ass like I want Stephanie to.
ReplyDeletePussy Cat!

ReplyDeleteI say we use this reference from now on!
So, all you medical experts out there ...
ReplyDeleteAssuming KC has this NPD, will he or won't he go absolutely buttfucking loco if he gets pushed too hard?
So. This was fun. Should we put up a minimap on the sidebar or was this just a pleasant distraction?
ReplyDelete@LOL
ReplyDeleteYou need to look for nspluginwrapper, which allows 32-bit apps to run under 64-bit browsers. It works fine with Flash.
So what else do me need to do to push Casey just over the edge?
ReplyDeleteSweet :-)
Ramen is for people on a budget that are trying to get by.
ReplyDeleteCasey can't afford that kind of food
I just sent him a recipe for Grass soup and green pool tea.
I also sent a recipe for modified vegan catfood stew. If you sprinkle it with pine cones and red ants it is something special

I am using the wrapper and it works but is a little buggy, just annoying
