    Whiskey

    And then Canadian whisky is also referred to as "rye" even if it has little or no rye in it. This stuff is confusing as hell.

    Our Hobbies

    The only way that ranching makes sense is if it's your hobby AND your job because it doesn't leave much time for anything else. That said, there are certain aspects I enjoy more than others and my favorite thing is welding and repairing/building stuff in my shop. I've been known to stay in the...

    Whiskey

    Somebody might correct me on this, but while Bulleit Bourbon is made with rye, it's not considered "rye whiskey". Bulleit actually makes a rye which is another product.

    If you have a cast iron skillet, a dutch oven, a wok, or just a high sided pot of any type then you have a fryer. I have one of the fry daddy types and it's nice because it controls the temp itself and doesn't splatter oil around, but when you consider that it can do about 6 wings every 15...

    If you don't mind setting up a fryer, I like homemade corn dogs using Alton Brown's recipe. Everyone likes corn dogs and they are way better if they're fried fresh. I tend to cut the hot dogs in half to make them more snacky if it's a football party. I also like to make sliders using potato...

    Post Your Pet

    Yeah, as much as I love working dogs, they don't make great pets because they are so high energy and have low tolerance of boredom. They need a job to do and if you don't give them one, they will find one on their own, which may be destroying your couch. Even though they are just about the...

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    You're right, I forgot the part where you actually win on the tails. The casino also has risk because the payout keeps going up with consecutive heads but what they take in is static. Probably $3 would work out fairly well. That is still a big winner for the casino. You have to get at least 2...

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    Yeah, the odds of 3 heads in a row is 8:1 and it would pay out 8:5. The casino would be all over that shit. I think that to be "fair" the initial bet should be 1 dollar since both the pot and the odds of winning double with each coin flip.

    Whiskey

    I can see the wet dog thing if you're talking about Scotch, although most people call it "peatiness". You might try bourbon or rye or something. Like most types of alcohol though, it's an acquired taste. If you want to learn try mixing it with Sprite or something and then gradually increasing...

    Tannehill was on ESPN this morning saying that Martin and Incognito were buds and hung out outside of work and were together a lot. He said Incognito said Martin was like his little brother. Kind of makes me think there's more to the story than we're being told.

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Nice blindside. Aras and Vytas were way too confident but I guess that's over. I am liking Tyson-Gervase-Sierra as the best social players. I actually like several players at this point and as long as Monica, Laura M., and the non-speaking blondes don't win I will be okay with it.

    The people that are in the workplace define what is acceptable behavior. Maybe the culture in the NFL needs to become more professional, but it's no office environment and never has been. It's too bad that Martin couldn't hack it in the locker room, but in my mind that doesn't mean that...

    Whoever okayed Sutter making the episodes 90 minutes should be fired. These are really getting hard to sit through. I think there has literally been a musical montage in every fucking episode this season and one episode had two of them. Self indulgent.

    Really the best way to go about making things is to read half a dozen recipes and then take the things you like from each of them. The internet makes this super easy to do.

    I don't think you have to have a pregnancy test to find out if you've had a miscarriage, at least after the first couple weeks. It's very painful and you have blood coming out of your vagina etc.

    I'm sure he needs the therapy. I seriously doubt that a dude saying mean things to him in the locker room is the reason for it. I'm not saying Incognito isn't a dick. Obviously he is, but he's been in the league 6 years or something so he's seen a lot of rookies and no one else has killed...

    I think it was a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale type beer, not like a porter or a stout. I can't remember exactly but it turned the onions quite brown.

    Oh come one. You're not suggesting that the 310 lb offensive lineman actually thought that Incognito might murder him or slap his mother are you? He was joking, Martin knew it, you know it, everyone with a brain in their head knows it. Give me a break.

    I don't know how long this show is supposed to last but I imagine they could make it a couple seasons just while she's pregnant the way the timeline of this show has gone. I can't really see that her actually having a baby could be compatible with the show but maybe she would put it up for...

    It is a bit much, although I wonder how he was "forced" to pay. I doubt that it was at gunpoint or anything. I would have no problem with him being fined or even suspended or forced to pay the rookies back, but the whole "Incognito is human garbage and must never play football again and...

    Rum is delicious cooked into various things. Ditto for wine. As far as the baked beans and marinades and beer can chicken and shit, that falls into my category of "doesn't really taste like bourbon/beer and you wouldn't miss it if it was gone". That "Jack Daniels Grill" bullshit at...

    Does anyone else think the Incognito thing is a little overblown? I feel like people probably say fucked up shit in the locker room all the time and it's all in good fun. He made the mistake of putting it someplace where it was recorded and Martin is a bitch so he showed it out of context and...

    Yeah, granted it's an effective way to get some air into your dough. I don't think beer batter or bread are really about the flavor of the beer though. I've tried a number of recipes that use beer or whiskey in sauces or reductions though, and it seems like either there is not enough in there...

    Beer reduction is the most bitter thing you can imagine. I do not want to try that. People just think beer is cool so they put it in stuff that makes it worse. Ditto for whiskey. I like both beer and whiskey but have never cooked anything with either of them that I thought was improved by...
