Am I *** for liking this

*Disclaimer* Sorry for the Political Incorrectness but, they play this game on the morning radio program I listen to. Also, I want to note that I haven't really listened to that much music in the past 8-10 years. I'm more of a talk radio guy. A couple of months ago I started listening to Pandora and I find these songs somewhat catchy but, I was wondering... Am I gay for liking this?

No, the Postal Service is a good band. That's the lead singer from Death Cab for Cutie.

Double post, suck it.

Somebody stole a 50 inch tv from Kmart......walked right out the front door with it and loaded it into their car........WOW

Perfect example of when profiling goes wrong......Kind of like how can you not see somebody walk out the door with a 50 inch tv ?

ESPECIALLY in this town. The stores here are NEVER crowded.

most stores have a policy of letting police catch shoplifters, if a store employee falsely detains a suspected shoplifter, they will get their butts sued. I work at Lowes and our policy is to let them go, catch em on Camera, and notify the cops. At no point am I allowed to stop anyone suspected of shoplifting.

Re: Off Topic 2010

Next up for me is going to be Chili on Sunday or Monday. Need to find a good recipe between now and then...and I'm too lazy to look back for the ones you guys were talking about the other day.

Hopefully tomorrow I'll end up making this. Found it on another forum and a few people have said it was pretty good.

First, browned the following meat:
Ground Beef (1.5 lbs, 16% fat)
Inside Top Round London Broil (2lbs)
Bacon (4 strips/.33lb)

Took a few tablespoons of that fat and sauteed up the following chopped veggies:
Poblano peppers (2 medium)
Bell peppers (2 small red)
Onions (2 medium)
Green onions (small bunch)
Celery (a few stalks)

Separately sauteed up the following chopped up mixture:
Garlic (8 cloves)
Jalapeno Peppers (2)
Serrano Peppers (5)
Habanero Pepper (1)

Added the pepper mix plus chopped up Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce (5) to the other vegetables.

Added in the meat.

Then added the following spices (approx):

Red chili flakes (1 tsp)
Black pepper (1 tsp)
Cumin (2 tsp)
Paprika (4 tsp)
Chili Powder (7 tsp)
Sea Salt (3 tsp)
Brown Sugar (3 tsp)

Then added a bottle of beer (blue moon wheat beer) and a couple shots of bourbon and brought it all to a boil.

Then added:
Crushed Tomatoes (28oz can)
Tomato Paste (small can)
Chicken Broth (~8oz)
Distilled White Vinegar (couple teaspoons)

Another hour or so and I add:

1.5oz dark chocolate, grated
Jalapeno Tortilla chips (a couple handfuls, 10-15 chips, crushed)
added a little extra salt and vinegar too

Awesome song.

As much as I despise snow now that I'm out of grade school, I'm kinda glad we're getting some. It's not Christmas without snow. I remember I spent Christmas in Florida 7 years ago, and yeah it was cool that it was 65 out, but it didn't feel right.

I've finally started on what was making me restless. I feel much better now (but I want to keep working on it, heh).

Re: Off Topic 2010

Love me some buffalo chicken dip. chefdad has to have a recipe for it that he isn't sharing...

lol, you posted one while I was calling you out.

The one I posted was for a salad using boneless chicken wings tossed in Frank's and butter served over salad greens.

I still think he's holding back on us...

But for the dip,
We actually use the recipe that's posted on Frank's website but we use a sysco brand canned chicken. I've tried using other versions of chicken like chicken breasts but we always find the shredded chicken in the can is best for dip. We serve ours "Grab and Go" style in a little container with pita triangles.

Servings: 4 cups dip
Prep Time: 5 min.
Cook Time: 20 min.

INGREDIENTS: 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup blue cheese or ranch salad dressing
1/2 cup any flavor FRANK'S® REDHOT® Sauce
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese or shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cans (12.5 oz. each) SWANSON® White Premium Chunk Chicken Breast in Water, drained
DIRECTIONS: HEAT oven to 350°F. Place cream cheese into deep baking dish. Stir until smooth.
MIX in salad dressing, Frank's RedHot Sauce and cheese. Stir in chicken.
BAKE 20 min. or until mixture is heated through; stir. Garnish as desired. Serve with crackers or vegetables.

TIPS: Reduced Calorie Recipe: Substitute neufchatel cheese for the cream cheese, and low fat options for the salad dressing and blue cheese.
Microwave Directions: Prepare as above. Place in microwave-safe dish. Microwave, uncovered, on HIGH 5 min. until hot, stirring halfway through cooking.
Slow Cooker Method: Combine ingredients as directed above. Place mixture into small slow cooker. Cover pot. Heat on HIGH setting for 1 1/2 hours until hot and bubbly or on LOW setting for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Stir.
Tailgating Tip: Prepare dip ahead and place in heavy disposable foil pan. Place pan on grill and heat dip until hot and bubbly.
Tip: You may substitute 2 cups shredded cooked chicken.

This recipe is also very similar to Famous Daves smoked salmon dip they do. But they serve it chilled and it's pureed. That stuff is awesome!

I hate you guys. I am so busy today. But I get out a little early, so that's nice. At least when you're busy, time flies.

True.
