    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    School yard pick lets people keep their alliances together which is kind of the opposite of what they're trying to do with the shake up. It did wind up pretty lopsided physically though.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    God damn Corinne is fucking obnoxious. I was starting to think that maybe people were buying in to Phil as a leader. This week made it pretty clear that they are just humoring him. I'm disappointed that Matt went home, he is pretty interesting. On the other hand, I think it was probably...

    You should eat better pies. Good, flaky, tender pie crust is amazing.

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    Declaring greatness 5 months before the first kickoff based on free agent acquisitions is pretty cheap. Remember the "dream team" in Philly?

    Just get a point and shoot with the most zoom you can get (zoom is very important outdoors, particularly for wildlife) and a tripod. http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerSho...ds=canon+sx500

    Justified - Season 4 starts Jan 8th

    This week's ep might be my favorite of the whole series. I love the Raylan vs. Boyd chess match going on at the same time as the Tim vs. Colt chess match out on the highway. I also love that Bob got to be a badass.

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    It was just a joke, settle down. You have to admit that it would be pretty funny to see Roethlisberger try to become a running QB.

    The question is what is the upside of all that processing power? I can't say I've ever run into anything that slows down my Galaxy Nexus. Is there a benefit or is this just chasing numbers?

    Yeah, I have no idea what you are talking about being "difficult".

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    This makes sense, but it's not always true. A lot of times people don't take moving in together nearly as seriously as getting married. If you're just shacking up and then you decide to get married just because you've been living together for a while, you never really made a serious decision...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There's a decent Greyjoy or two. Even Theon I don't think of as all bad. Mostly he's just a dumb fuck up who was trying to do what was expected of him, and he does get some redemption in the later books.

    Google Glass

    What I'm saying is that most people aren't interested in recording your conversations, and those that would be already have sneakier ways of doing it than google glass. It's not that I don't care about privacy, but I don't see glass as a major game changer, especially if it has some sort of...

    Supposedly we still haven't seen any "Google" phones from Motorola yet. Google has even said that there was 18 months of pipeline already in place when they bought Motorola and they weren't impressed with the phones. It will be interesting to see what the first fully Google influenced Motorola...

    When I had my HTC incredible I just carried spare batteries all the time. This isn't an option with the One though since it doesn't have a removable battery. The Verge review said it was pretty mediocre. I'm sure it will be better than the EVO but maybe not on par with the best phones.

    The Veronica Mars Movie Project

    This is based on a TV show? I think it's interesting how much people have given. Based on the numbers, the average donation is $65. That seems like a pretty big chunk of change to spend on a movie that may or may not even get made. Maybe there were some big backers skewing the average? I...

    Deadwood

    I sent the DVDs to my brother and his wife refused to continue watching the show for a while at the end of S1 because she couldn't stand to see the preacher die. She eventually did watch it though and finished out the series.

    Wedding / Groomsman Gifts

    Beer/fruit/sausage/cheese/whatever of the month club is a great gift because it's 12 gifts that will make them think of you every month for a year. It's nice to have some sort of keepsake as well though. I have received a watch, a pocket knife, and a beer stein as groomsman/best man gifts in...

    I tend to agree. It's like people who won't put pictures of their kids on the internet as if some pedophile is going to see the picture and be all "I must find this child and molest him even though I don't know who he is or where he lives!". Pedophiles molest their own relatives or people who...

    North Korea goes full retard

    The problem is that China's power over NK is food. They could starve them easily, but then it's a situation where you're playing chicken with a regime that has shown it's willingness to let thousands or millions of people starve to death rather than risk losing power in the past.

    Got a bit behind on my TV shows so I just watched the ep tonight. Little Hantz definitely left in a memorable way. I so wish someone a little more manly than Eric was there when he was about to dump the beans. Eric just tapped him on the shoulder and ran away. I wanted him to deck him so bad...

    I laughed out loud at two points in last weeks show. First when Spartacus stabbed those two guys at once and they both did flips around his arms like a cheer leading move and secondly when the red haired chick stuck that blunt branding iron through the back of that guy's neck like he was made...

    Not nearly as cool looking as the HTC One, but I'm sure it's a great phone. Some of the custom software is pretty silly but it sounds fun to play with. I would have to play with both to see how I felt about the software but I never had much of a problem with Sense on my old Droid Incredible...

    Ban Alex for terrible opinions. I love Deadwood, my favorite show ever. I've seen all 3 seasons in order 4+ times, and I re-watch them every year or two. The writing and dialog is so god damn great and the actors are outstanding. Justified is a great show in it's own right, but even if it...

    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    I find it fascinating that there was "almost a mutiny" at Baltimore. Could that mean that the defense doesn't have much respect for Flacco? Or are they just money hungry and looking for a fat contract because they won a super bowl? It makes me think twice about wanting Ed Reed in SF.

    I have spent lots of time in both SF and KC and KC has 3 things going for it; Better barbecue, far cheaper real estate, and as of now, better internet. Everything else kind of goes SF's way though.

    More metal means they can store more heat that is ready to be instantly transferred to your steak. A thin grill rack will get to 500 degrees just like the Mangrates, but once your 60 degree steak hits it, they cool off quickly. The heavier grill stays hot longer, meaning it sears the steak...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Sorry, but you're wrong. Metal transfers heat better than air does. More metal means faster heat transfer means a better sear. It's the same reason that a cast iron pan cooks steak better than a thin aluminum non-stick. Don't worry about what Adam Carolla says, that video is just him and his...
