GravatarHey!


Gravatar


GravatarWow! Uno!


GravatarTurd


GravatarGood evening moonbats!


GravatarMissed it by that much...


GravatarNew thread?

Evening, batses. I've been out all day -- what's been happening here?


Are we liveblogging Dracula of the future tonite?


And would anyone like a martini?


GravatarSpace vampires, anyone?


GravatarBriefly recovering from a college football feast.

After this case, and the next case, there's only 1 case of beer left!


GravatarAnd would anyone like a martini?

Thanks, flory.


.


GravatarHold the aspic.


GravatarHitchens vs Galloway on Cspan or Dracula 3000?

It's a tough call.


Gravatar
Are we liveblogging Dracula of the future
?

It beats hell out of Cheneyburton of the present.


Gravatarspaceships in space sure are loud.


.


GravatarSo are we in effect rooting for Schroeder in Germany tomorrow, simply because the wingnuts all want Merkel? I'm fine with that.


GravatarC.S. - I'm goin' with the "Grapple in the Big Apple"


GravatarBack to the game, see if the Horns can hold a 42-0 halftime lead


GravatarCaptain Abraham Van Helsing.

*snort*


GravatarP. A. R. T. Why?

Cause we GOT TO

Rock on.


GravatarWe can do both.

And that space station looks like Mir. Creepy.


GravatarAnd the navigator babe is named Mina...


GravatarWow. They put a lot of care into the exposition.


.


GravatarUnder the WTF category (sports):

MIAMI (AP) -- Once the Philadelphia Phillies broke up Dontrelle Willis' shutout in the ninth inning, there was no stopping them.

Thanks in part to the Florida Marlins' inept bullpen and defense, the first 10 batters in the ninth reached base, and Philadelphia scored 10 times to win 10-2 Saturday afternoon.


Gravatar...and it's called Mother? Where's Ripley?


Gravatarreading Eli and spork is better than the movie, I'm sure.


GravatarIs there a Lucy?


.


Gravatarspaceships in space sure are loud

That's because the sound crew is on board.


GravatarAnd that space station looks like Mir. Creepy.

It's a Mir image!


GravatarFrakkin' Hitchens framing the invasion of Iraq as a "revolution..."


Gravatarim a navigator! whine whine whine


.


GravatarWhen the picture of the Vice Captain popped up, my first thought was, "Point those things away from me--they might be loaded."


Gravatarspork:

Gin or vodka? Olive or twist? Shaken or stirred?


GravatarI loves me some Udo Kier.


Gravatar reading Eli and spork is better than the movie, I'm sure.

Many months ago, I came home late and festive from a bar and found the thread liveblogging Mansquito.

It was truly great. I watched the 3am flick just to be sure...


GravatarBRAINS....I Must have live human BRAINS....Must walk the earth in search of HUMAN BRAINS


GravatarHackula 2005

Right-wing pundits suck the lifeblood from political discourse as the world watches in horror! Is there someone--anyone--who can stop them?

You'll have to wait for the sequel in 2006 to find out...


Gravatarflory -

Vodka, of course. Twist. Shaken or stirred.

Your the tops!


.


GravatarThey're sending the navigator cutie to explore the creepy station- where's there's an "epidemic".

Smart move...

The captain worked for FEMA previously, right?


GravatarSpeaking of parties, I went to a great one last night where there were a few wingnuts. I was so pleased to see that the reaction to the verbal vomit the wingers put forth was met with just pure, un-adulterated *hahahahahah*

Oh, it was sweet to watch the wingnuttery flee or hang their heads in shame.


GravatarWait! Udo Kier is in Drac 3K ??!!


GravatarWe can't movieblog until this episode of AquaTeen is over, but I hope the movie has a Tina. Or maybe a Trixie. They always make movies better.


GravatarAnd would anyone like a martini?
flory, Business Manage

me, me. been digging out a garden all afternoon, only had a 6 pk in the frig. (all gone now)


Gravatarreading Eli and spork is better than the movie, I'm sure.
Captain Goto


Watertiger and sallyh make it even more entertaining.


GravatarHullo.

I've dug up the garden beds preparatory to planting things on Monday.

I've cleaned the house.

I've fed Arthur his dinner.

I've played YELLOW BALL with Arthur.

I've sat outside and observed the light changing and the moon rising and the quiet.

What have I missed here?


GravatarHow about this -- be part of the revival.

Get real live people involved in rebuilding and restoring New Orleans.


Gravatarflory, I would love a gin martini, shaken, double olives. Thanks!


GravatarFlory,

If I may horn in...

Gin...Bombay Sapphire if ya have it. Dry. Olives. Up; shaken. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.


GravatarI loves me some Udo Kier.

Have you seen Flesh for Frankenstein?


Gravatar When the picture of the Vice Captain popped up, my first thought was, "Point those things away from me--they might be loaded."

She can command *my* vice any day.


GravatarOh, it was sweet to watch the wingnuttery flee or hang their heads in shame.

That's the soul of the day, eh? Sweet, truly.


GravatarOne of Hitchen's 4 necessary conditions for invading a sovereign nation is "harboring nihilists."

Does that mean that some Scandanavian countries are at risk now?


GravatarTenn is beating Fla.


Gravatar

Everyone here feels great because Miami beat Clemson in triple OT.


GravatarVodka with a twist, shaken for spork.

GravatarAP headline:

Prolly not a darn thing compared to what you did there.


Gravatarflory

Got one thanks.

Very dry!

(OK, It's Vodka on the rocks)

GravatarWhat a scamp!

once you go black you never go baqck


.


GravatarROMULOX!

"Videophone me, OK babe, I'll be at the 10 seasons."


GravatarI am just tuning in, can someone explain why the space craft has a bbq grill attached to the top of it?


GravatarI think Hitchens has found his Nietzsche...


GravatarAnd oh, yes, I've rebooked my trip on SW Airlines to/fro Phx/Abq at $34 each way. Vestal Virgin might want to double check her possibilities, given SWA's 7day advance purchase cheap fare....


GravatarI loves me some Udo Kier.

Of course. Blood For Dracula as well.

"The blood of these whores is killing me!!!"


GravatarRumsfeld reminds me of Dracula.

Not the Bela Lugosi Dracula.

The Coppola version of Dracula.

Chertoff reminds me of Nosferatu.


GravatarTwo Bombay Sapphires, olives, shaken for SD and Fred...extra olives for SD.


Gravatari wish crewmembers would stop walking in front of the camera.


.


GravatarEli,

What was the name of the vampire movie with Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie in it?

Was that "The Hunger"?


GravatarEveryone here feels great because Miami beat Clemson in triple OT.
Thers


I wondered why Thers kept disappearing from this evening's family party. Now I know why....


GravatarUgh...I thought I'd try the "SciFi blogging" thing, but a minute's worth of that puerile dialogue in Dracula 3000 has left me feeling...soiled.


GravatarNew Blair revelations re Iraq war in Sunday Times:

Lance Price, a former deputy to Alastair Campbell, reveals in his book, The Spin Doctor’s Diary, that:

Blair privately seemed to “relish” sending British forces to Iraq as his “first blooding”, while publicly claiming he did it “with a heavy heart”.


Gravatar1/4 cup fresh lime juice

GravatarThis drek even has a *not*-Stephen Hawking.

GravatarUncle Smokes -- 10 minutes of Hitchens will have the same effect, alas.


GravatarWas that "The Hunger"?

Yes.

I'll have what Fred's having, Flory.


Gravatar Ugh...I thought I'd try the "SciFi blogging" thing, but a minute's worth of that puerile dialogue in Dracula 3000 has left me feeling...soiled.

Yeah but it beats the crap out of listening to Hitchens on C-SPAN.


GravatarSo I assume the blonde with the large talents is Erika Eleniak.

GravatarAlso, will outer space navigators 1000 years from now really be wearing ponytails?

GravatarAfghan hash...is that made with lamb instead of corned beef?

GravatarI'm working on my Irish&soda, whilst typing this. It's a fine, quiet drink. Not like those raucus martini thingies....

I recommend a tall glass of iced tea (no sugar) with two shots of Amaretto.

Light...perfect for the porch on a summer night.


Gravatar"MIAMI (AP) -- Once the Philadelphia Phillies broke up Dontrelle Willis' shutout in the ninth inning, there was no stopping them."

As a Phillies fan - it was just so COOL! I've never seen anything like it.


GravatarIt's a fine, quiet drink. Not like those raucus martini thingies....
GWPDA, yclept Irate Scholar

Hey now!!

Quiet?

Pfooeeeyyy!

I've never heard of anyone breaking out in a rousing chorus of Finnegan's Wake after drinking a few martinis.


GravatarOh jeez - Hitchens is such a pig.

He just slammed Galloway for "lying" to a Congressional subcommitee.

Gloves off all around, kids, more blood will be spilt on CSpan2 than on SciFi..


Gravatar"If ya got it," I sez...Beefeater'll do just fine.

Planters' moon out here. Time to start again....

AND BY GOD MY GREAT AUNT WIGGIE LIVED RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM CLEMSON AND HER HUSBAND KLUGH HAD ALL KINDS OF CONNEXIONS AND CLEMSON SHOULD HAVE WON. I actually have been to Clemson, to bury Wiggie, and it's a strange and marvelous little town. Clemson Univ. now owns my Aunt Wiggie's banquet table. As they should. Otherwise, I should have had to had it and the chances of my ever needing a seats 20 banquet table are pretty slim.


Gravatardamn didn't anyone watch Africa Queen Gordon's Gin. I can't drink that too smooth to taste stuff. I need the burn. (it keeps me honest not to mention sober)

GravatarGin martinis are better than their Vodka cousins 'cause, when you start acting stupid after downing a few, folks'll smell the gin on your breath and think, "OK, he/she's just drunk." With Vodka, they'll think you're just an idiot.


GravatarSo tell me, folks, is Dracula 3000 any worse than a badly dubbed Mexican vampire movie from the late '60s and early '70s?


GravatarOoohhh someone hacked into Duhbya's e-mail

Lucky bastards.


Gravatarwow, show chris' face!


GravatarI've posted the following to some NGs, to little avail but enjoy:

Isn't "God damn it" getting old and worn?
How about an update fitted to modern experience and attached to "a real
person?" My proposed replacement expletive: Damn Bush it! Aren't almost all of us getting to the point where we are blaming this "natural born bungler" for just about everything that goes wrong? We'll damn him, not ask him to do the damning (how many times has *God* actually followed through on any of our conventional requests?) Next time you miss a nail and hit your thumb, say "Damn Bush it!" Talk about your "damn-Bushed transmission" or even something genuinely relevant like local FEMA response or bombings in Iraq. Pass it on. This should spread like mosquitoes in the Delta.

(On a serious note, I do give him credit for taking some responsibility for what went wrong. That isn't going to help pay for it...)


GravatarThe navigatorette is giving me a Kyra Sedgwick vibe.

Gravatarwhat you're really getting is a watered down martini and being snobby about it.
jello

well, yeah, but wouldn't stirring it with ice do the same? Maybe not. Don't know.

Maybe the best way is to keep your gin in the freezer, clink the top of the gin bottle against thye top of the Vermouth bottle (both still closed, of course), and pour into martini glasses that have also been kept in the freezer. Use at least two, possibly 3 very good quality green olives on lovely toothpick, and...you're set.

On the other hand, if you INSIST, use eye dropper to put one, maybe 2 drops good quality Vermouth, if you insist.


GravatarHitchens baiting the audience. MEVER a sign of confidence.


GravatarHeard a song on XM Cafe that I fell in love with but like an idiot I didn't write the band's name down. Now I'm desperately searching the 'net for it. Something like "Poster Star," or some other P-word followed by Star.

I feel your pain, Prior A.

I do believe that there exists a need, or merely a target demographic, for a support group for Eschaton-blogging related stress and anxiety.

We could weep together while listening to heartwrenching tales of those Left Behind on dead threads, or name-stolen and bearing the scars of agonizing post-theft confusion.

And the proliferation of threads in bursts, worse than the Lady or the Tiger! And on top of that all of the troll and Incog drama-- I break out into a cold sweat just thinking of it.

Where to leave off? Where to break in? How to catch up? Why? A support group and an opportunity to beat each other with Nerf bats might unlock the mysteries and ease the mind.

These are deep waters, Prior A.

Anybody out there got a particularly good procedure for carnitas?

It seems I'm going to be putting on an al fresco taco narf for at least 8 people tomorrow evening. I've bought a couple of skirt steaks, some nice big prawns, and a 4lb. pork shoulder roast. The skirt steak I bbq, the prawns I either BBQ or deep-fry if I'm feeling particularly ambitious, and the shoulder roast I want to do in advance as carnitas. To go with it, we'll have beans, queso fresco, roasted poblanos, jalapenos, and green onions, chopped onion, chopped cilantro, green salsa, avocado, and toasted d'arbol chiles with fresh oregano.

Anyway, I've looked up a few recipes and they seem OK, but I was wondering if anybody had a procedure that was particularly good.

blerb | 09.17.05 - 10:01 pm


Maybe. Try this: Set oven to 250 F.
Rub pork roast generously with the following (mixed well):

1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon coarse black pepper
1 teaspoon ground white pepper

1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Now. Slice two big sweet onions into 1/2-inch thick rings. Lay 'em in the bottom of a roaster. Put the roast on top. Cover with foil, put roast in oven. Cook at least six hours.

Baste occasionally with a mixture of 1/2 cup lime juice, 2 teaspoons liquid mesquite smoke, 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1/4 cup *good* soy sauce and 1/2 cup honey. (Occasionally = pour half of it over at the beginning; halfway through the cooking time turn the roast over and pour on the other half; reseal and return to oven.)

Carne deshebrada en la manera de ropa vieja.

Tender. Succulent. Pulls apart with a fork.
Works in a slow-cooker too.

Gravatar...unscrewed the top of the vermouth bottle, dropped it in the first glass, and then threw it over his shoulder before serving himself and his prospective conquest...

Gawd, this ultra-dry martini thing is so passe.

FWIW, here's my procedure:

1) Chill everything to -20C in the freezer.

2) dump in pre-chiiiled coctail shaker the following:

4 parts Bombay sapphire, 1 part Vya dry vermouth (much better than cinzano, etc.) -or better yet- 1 part good dry sake, 1 dash angostura bitters/martini, goodly portion of myer lemon zest

3) Wrap shaker in towel and shake until coated in ice and finger sticks to outside.

4) decant into martini glass w/ 1 habanero green olive, 1 cocktail onion, 1 tiny pickled green tomato.


You know you got it right if the onion freezes solid after the martini goes into the glass.


The point is that the extensive pre-chilling and use of over-proof gin preserves that alcoholic bite, while still allowing you to actually flavor the drink with the vermouth/sake. I mean, if you just look at the vermouth from across the room, why not just swig the gin from the bottle out of the freezer?

Gravatar Hitchens is trying to do a Hemingway.

I would pay cash money to see him try to outrun a bull in Pamploma.


GravatarI offer it instead, tea cloths, runners, crisp beautiful Irish linen drawnwork and cutwork...

embroidery from the same hands as created the altar cloths......
flory, Business Manager


Well, errrrhhhhhm, quite a few from my hands, and I haven't done any altar cloths in a long, long time. Drawn work is fun tho if you can see.... I knew I was exceeding the speed limit tho when I ventured into whitework and drawnwork at the same time. I reverted to crewel, but then - oh well.... I can't see quite enough any more to do nifty handwork, but did manage to do some nice whitework monograms on some very fine Pequot percale pillowcases.....

GravatarTONY BLAIR has denounced the BBC's coverage of Hurricane Katrina as 'full of hatred of America' and 'gloating' at the country's plight, it was reported yesterday.

Blair allegedly made the remarks privately to Rupert Murdoch, chairman and chief executive of News Corporation, which owns the rival Sky News. (from sunday's UK Observer - front page)

I fucking hate Tony Blair. I did before he was elected, and i hate him more than ever. I loathe him almost as much as i did Thatcher
Plum P

He is rotten to the core. The reason he hates it is the same reason Bush would, they do some reporting. Though less than before. He would destroy the greatest English language broadcast corporation, probably on orders from Arlington Va., to keep English people in the state of ignorance that we suffer from here.

Murdoch. Mur "show us your knockers, dolly bird" doch. Well, it's nice that Blair keeps his boss informed.

I never thought anyone could make John Major seem benign.


GravatarY'all are makin me hungry...

Just stopped in to say that I just heard someone... I think it was Tom Oliphant?... on NPR use a very accurate and persuasive sorta word to describe W.'s "leadership" style -- passive. He is *incredibly* passive, and it's not something most Americans want in the leader of the free world. Has the makings of a good meme, I think, if we can spread it around...

I'm printing it out.....


I already did. Made me hungry just reading the other Sarah's recipe.

I'd rather spend my $ on books, music and the canines

Man, don't get me started. Spent $545 on one of my canines Wednesday getting his teeth cleaned and two teeth pulled. He was one pissed off canine when he got back. He would not even look at me when I picked him up. The vet called anxiously and asked if I could pick him up pronto as he was making a scene.

Gravataragin, why i hate Tony Blair, part 2 (toujours from The Observer)

"A FORMER Downing Street spin doctor said last night he felt Tony Blair had secretly 'relished' ordering British air strikes in Iraq, despite avowing publicly that he was doing so with a heavy heart.

The allegation by Lance Price is one of a battery of potentially embarrassing passages in a political memoir by the former BBC journalist, who worked as a deputy to communications director Alastair Campbell in Downing Street during Blair's first term as Prime Minister"

Alastair Campbell was Blair's Rove, this should be an intesting book!

I have a big orange tom (18lb-er as of this week) who does that. He sheds all year long and the fur floating as a contrail is a noticeable trait.

Toby should start by eating that reputedly inedible bean soup the Spartans were famous for. By the look of that picture, he could use a diet. Then he could zip over to Athens where, as a barbarian, he would pretty much be the same nobody he is here.

I do not care if my actions are remembered two seconds after the last person who knew me is dead.

If he is so concerned about posthumous fame he doesn't seem to be doing much that would make people want to remember him.

Gravatar blerb, if you go that route split the roast so it's no more than about 1 1/2'' thick or it won't get done in the middle before the outside scorches

Good point. What I think I'll do is cut the bone out of the middle and then slice the whole roast in half. That will be maybe 2" thick. I'll lay the two pieces on their sides on top of the onion layer in a big havy duty foil pan,. Then I'll hot-smoke it for about an hour with indirect heat (2 small piles of coals off to the side w/chips). After that, I'll cover the pan tightly with foil and let it go another couple hours, braising. Right at the end, as I'm getting ready to do the asada/prawns etc. I'll pull it out of the juice, let it sear on the outside over the hot fire for a couple of minutes, and then put it back on the p[late with some of the braising liquid to moisten it.

We'll see how that works out. The 250 degree oven would definitely be the safer route....

If this debate had been actually newsworthy, you know headline writers at the dailies would've all gone with "Hitch-slapped".


GravatarWhat more needs be said?
flory, Business Manager


Mija! Yes, it's the standard. I have the carbon paper to prove it!

Sweet dreams macushla. Not too much chiles.

GravatarJason-in-Space blogging?

Gravatarcan't do privatation without patronage.


Gravatarflory: if you go to a bar in Montreal and try to pick a nice local girl, if you indeed try to speak french, it will make you charming and open to our culture, and yes, that improves your chance to get laid! Easy!


Gravatar Jason-in-Space blogging?

Already seen it, but it has some great stuff in it.

"It's okay! He just wants his machete back!"

And fun with liquid nitrogen, and a hilarious holographic simulation of one of those old horny-campers-in-peril Jason movies.

GravatarSo has Blair already been invited to join the Carlyle Group? I assume he will be, but figured that would wait until he was out of office.

an open invitation waiting for him as soon as he leaves office, it's been reported.

GravatarDon't we have to invade Iran next week?

I just can't imagine the cabal starting another war anytime soon. Not now. After Katrina, it is plain suicide for them.

No, because we are not informed of the consequences, sadly.

Too fucking bad, eh?


GravatarEvenin', Moooooooooonbats,

I was wondering if you guys could do me a favor. I'm sick of making people log in to B3 in order to post comments, so I hacked the code to allow use of Haloscan.

If any of you would be kind enough to go over to my humble blog and post a comment, I'd appreciate it. I just want to make sure the comments are working before I turn the internal comments off. thanks in advance!


GravatarPS: The 'Post a comment' link is the internal one that you have to log in to use. the 'Comment' on is Hellascan.

thanks again.


GravatarHi,
