  2. I understand. Her talk show years overshadowed her comedian years which were usually funny.
  3. Cool, so do you work for an owner that can operate the complicated device known as a cell phone, and knows there are 7 days in a week? If yes, you seem to be ahead of 90% of the shit I see around here.

    Mmm Chili

    I admit I am much like the first 2 judges and seem to have lost track of what most people find spicy. Chili Cook-Off ***************** In Texas they have a Chili Cook-off about the time Halloween comes around. It takes up a major portion of a parking lot at the San Antonio City Park. Judge #3 was an inexperienced Chili taster named Frank, who was visiting from Springfield, IL. Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted". Here are the scorecard notes from the event: **( Frank is Judge #3 )** ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick. Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild. Judge # 3 (Frank) -- Holy shit, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy. ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 2 - AUSTIN'S AFTERBURNER CHILI... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeño tang. Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously. Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face. ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 3 - FRED'S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Judge # 2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers. Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting shit-faced from all of the beer. ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing. Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili. Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-LB woman is starting to look HOT...just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac? ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 5 LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive. Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement. Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks. ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers. Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb. Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I shit on myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my ass with a snow cone. ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers. Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.** Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach. ------------------------------------------------------- CHILI # 8 - BIG TOM'S TOENAIL CURLING CHILI... ------------------------------------------------------- Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence. Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. poor feller, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili? Judge # 3 -- No Report
  5. I've owned my own business and I've managed another. I've since moved into a boring cubicle job for the $$ to support my family. When doing both, I didn't act like scum or treat my customers even worse. I'm sure you can tell my post was a rant and never did I state that all construction folks or contractors were shit. But, I've seen first hand that a lot around here ARE, and I cannot imagine how they stay in business. A lot of fake ratings on the intrawebs is my personal theory. I'm really not interested in dominating anything (maybe the Mrs. once in a while?), just expect to be treated better than these Emmanuel labor companies around here treat people. Demanding? No. Some level of expecting professionalism from a PROfessional? Yes.
  6. It's been roofers, contractors, lawn service, general stuff, towing (I know that's a little in left field), material delivery, etc. Some even from CR. I just can't understand how that industry operates as they do and remain in business. Is it because people are overall lazy, so we'll always "need" them, or because the mark-up is so high, they can piss off 40% of people and still do OK? Is it unions? Are the people that work in these jobs just all-around idiots (I don't believe this one). Are they just so slammed, they fall behind? (more reason for me to start my own).
  7. Is business really that fucking good that you can ignore calls, be late with EVERYthing, act like I (as the buyer w/ the cash) am beneath you? I've seen the worst customer service / common decency from construction / handymen / lawn crews over the last few years, that I am almost certain that if I started a construction company, and at least CALLED PEOPLE BACK AND DIDN'T LIE TO THEM, that I could dominate Licking County. Thanks
  8. Yes, it does. But, now she has her Youtube 15 minutes.
  9. I've had horrible luck with bacon on the smoker. Tastes great, but turns chewy instead of crunchy. PS - Pork from my smoker today... (finished on grill) Just one pork. Not pork on top of pork, stuffed inside of rolled pork. That's a big cutting sheet BTW. http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=5&pictureid=7848
  10. Couldn't resist. My first airsoft of any kind. Fits all of my holsters and the spare mag fits my mag holders. Lots of fun and practice for $35. Oh, and the kids like it too. http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=5&pictureid=7847
  11. This hit me hard. Had been watching and hoping for the best. Prayers and thoughts your way.
  12. Thank you. That's some pretty good .22. How was it $25+? Mine: Order Total: $19.34
  13. I have about every other CCI if there's another one your rifle likes eating.
  14. A new balancer or a new-to-you balancer? Just asking...
  15. Just made some last night. Garden tomatoes - 4 or 5 medium 1/2 a small sweet onion Large jalapeno (or 2 normal ones) lots of cilantro (fresh!!!!) good bit of lime juice ~1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic (I'd go more, but family not big into garlic) few pinches of sea salt black pepper Nothing was really measured, just thrown in the processor. I'm taking some of it tonight and adding one or more super hots to it, just for my tastes. I'm a huge fan of fresh cilantro and lime in salsas. The lime juice will also help keep things fresh longer.
  16. I've seen Richard Childress do similar things at auctions, usually for children's charities. Good stuff to see.
  17. Nobody said it did? I believe the boy was shot for TRYING TO TAKE A COP'S GUN inside his patrol car. Isn't that enough reason?
  18. Yep. Non-P.C. inside voice thinks that "unarmed teen boy" should never had made it out of the store...
  19. At first, I was like, "Wow, nice purple truck ." Then, I was like, "Damn, nice truck."
  20. What condition is the interior in? Whines, rattles, leaks?
