    I dont think KC Masterpiece even has a restaurant anymore, they closed down. They sucked. Most KC-area BBQ sauces come out of successful restaurants or competitive BBQ teams. KC Masterpiece was just made up by some random guy that didn't BBQ or anything, and then decades later they tried to...

    I almost panicked when I went to Taco Bell the other day. The special menu section that previously listed quesaritos was gone and replaced with a new promotion, and quesaritos were not listed on the regular menu either. I thought they were gone, so I asked, and thankfully they still had them...

    I generally like adding something like a stout or wheat beer to my chili, something that has some noticeable flavor. Here is my chili recipe that I make multiple times every football season, and everyone absolutely goes nuts over it:

    I wouldn't be completely against that. I never, EVER group in PoE. Mainly because or sporadic play times(1yr old kid at home) and I hate PUGs. Would be nice to have an NPC to draw some fire away from me. As it is now, its very difficult to progress well into merciless and maps completely...

    Here's the problem with kids, that I didn't realize until I had one. I kinda thought that yeah, formula and baby food will be expensive but once the kid can eat regular food, things shouldn't be so bad. I mean, how much more food do I need to cook for dinner to feed another being that only...

    MLB 2014 Season Thread

    Goddamn, Carlos Santana tried to single-handedly rape the Royals in that 4 game series. 5 HR and 8 RBI in 4 games while going 9 for 14 with 5 walks. How do you let a guy barely hitting over .200 on the season do that to you?

    The Note 3 is incredible, and does not feel too large at all. I can reach the entire screen with my thumb while holding it in 1 hand. That being said, it's WAY too big for my wife to do that. The Note is basically for adult men, not kids or women.

    Pretty much all phones have that ability built in, it's just up to your provider if they disable it or charge extra for it (if unrooted)

    Threy will see that is the same address and probably nix it. It's one of the things that people hate most about cable and satellite companies. They care much more about new customers than retaining existing customers.

    Our office air conditioning can really only keep the temp about 20 degrees below the outside temperature. Really sucks when it hits 100 degrees out, 80 inside feels stifling. I have to turn on a fan, but then the noise from the fan makes it hard to hear the radio

    I want one crazy rule added to football. The only person that can attempt a kick(punt, FG, or XP) is someone who has been on the field for every play since the last 1st down. It would be awesome. You'd end up with linemen or QBs having to kick.
