        Um, sure. I never go anywhere during the day. Especially not by Ubear -- nm - barnaby bear Nov 17, 18:05 2
        
        (shh, no one tell him he was dreaming.) -- nm - b. Nov 17, 18:13
        
        you go think about what you just said. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 18:07
  - I like this a lot. -- nm - Krusty Nov 17, 17:47

      - still, they've already had games this year where attendance was below 13,000....nm - x Nov 17, 17:48 3
        
        Fans don't want to watch a losing team, I get it. I have no interest in going and likely won't see any games this year. I can yell at them from home - Krusty Nov 17, 17:51
        
        that's different than, like, 12, though. -- nm - b. Nov 17, 17:50 1
        
        i suppose...nm - x Nov 17, 17:51

  - ya don't have to tell me, i'm from boston!....nm - x Nov 17, 17:36

- "Good seats still available!" -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 17:30
Princess Leia just killed me. -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 17:24
not that there was much of a question, but woo - giants signed brandon crawford to a 6-year deal. nm but: -- (link) - b. Nov 17, 17:10 4
- I like seeing teams lock up their young talent, not looking at you Nats & Harper, but $12.5m a year seem steep. - Krusty Nov 17, 17:16 3
  - from what I've read, he likely could have made more elsewhere. he's local, though - playing for them was/is his dream. nm but: -- (link) - b. Nov 17, 17:24 1
    - Yeah, he'd make more in FA and this will likely be a good deal for the team. I'm sure he was very happy to get that deal from his hometown team. - Krusty Nov 17, 17:46
  - If he goes 30 and 100 for the next few years it'll be a good deal for the Giants. -- nm - Krusty Nov 17, 17:20

  - I liked it. Montreal Smoked Meat was my absolute least favourite. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 17:13
- which one did you like best? I still think there were shenanigans with the u.s. dealio. -- nm - b. Nov 17, 17:08 1
  - I'd have been fine with either butter chicken or MSM. -- nm - Reagen Nov 17, 17:09
- I don't see anything in the article that suggests he is a nihilist, donnie. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 17:08
just for our bitter-sweet baboo. nm but: -- (link) - b. Nov 17, 17:00 5
- Hee, perfect !! -- nm - Meg Nov 17, 17:10 1
  - Don't enable this flagrant violation of the kitten break rules -- nm - sweet baboo Nov 17, 17:42

ST foodies; what can you cook/smoke in a home smoker besides fish and almonds? Cheese? -- nm - landbeck Nov 17, 16:41 20
- I'm pretty sure cheese has to be cold smoked so if you're not set up for that it won't work. -- nm - spamlet Nov 17, 18:10
- How big of a smoker is it? Is it big enough for a chicken? Or a turkey breast? -- nm - ReluctantCynic Nov 17, 17:16
- I didn't know you could smoke eggs, but wikipedia says so. -- (link) - Beryllium Nov 17, 16:58 4
  - ... you can smoke salt. Hmm. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 16:59 3
    - a little of that can go a super long way, but it can be good. eggs are kind of odd, as the texture changes on the outside, especially. - b. Nov 17, 17:02 1
      - roasted potatoes yum -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 17:03
    - I have had smoked salt as a seasoning. -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 17:01

- just about anything -- nm - Peglegpete Nov 17, 16:46 5
  - I've had some things and read about others that were not so smoke-enhanced. some cheese (mm, manchego) can be good. this looks interesting.. nm but -- (link) - b. Nov 17, 16:49
  - cold smoking is for fish, cheese and a few other foods. hot smoking for all the rest -- nm* - Peglegpete Nov 17, 16:47 3
    - I hate lox. Hot smoked salmon and black cod, all the way. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 16:57 1
      - I like hot smoked salmon as well. -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 16:58
    - TIL about cold smoking. -- nm - Krusty Nov 17, 16:50
- Beef Jerky!! -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 16:44 1
  - Yes, please -- nm - znufrii needs a job Nov 17, 16:54
- salmon? -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 16:43 1
  - Oh wait that's a fish. Dammit. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 16:43
I know you guys are all very worried about this: my cat friends are still super pissed at me for taking them to the vet last week and for leaving them - all the boys love christine baranski Nov 17, 16:36 14

- They demand a sacrifice -- nm - sweet baboo Nov 17, 16:43
- here is a photo of gateau fromage sleeping in front of her third boyfriend, the fireplace. -- (link) - all the boys love christine baranski Nov 17, 16:43 5

    - it's not the worst. she's such a weird sleeper; always looks like she's smiling. -- nm - all the boys love christine baranski Nov 17, 16:47 1
      - it tells the tale - I like that her pal is touching just a teeny bit, too. -- nm - b. Nov 17, 16:51
- The longer you have them the shorter they hold a grudge. Ours are down to a few hours after a vet visit and when we first got them it was days. -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 16:43 5
  - cheese had a rough vet visit. I feel like she may have told ollie. neither of them will sleep with me. - all the boys love christine baranski Nov 17, 16:46 4
    - yikes. poor everyone involved! :/ -- nm - b. Nov 17, 16:51
    - Two vet visits ago they got thermometers up their hineys and shots. I wasn't popular. Your poor kitties :( - Bacon Nov 17, 16:50 2
      - they took her out of the room to find it. poor chubbers was *freaking* out. -- nm - all the boys love christine baranski Nov 17, 17:19 1
        
        Poor little puss -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 17:26
I'd be okay if DC told the WWE they can't call it the Superman Punch anymore. -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 16:35 2
- And that any wrestler who ever used it is banned for five years. -- nm - David Nov 17, 16:36 1
  - Come on. You know that heel tactics would keep that from sticking. -- nm - Qale Nov 17, 17:02
Colin, we've got a great role for you. But you'll have to chain smoke like a chimney. -- nm - Mop Nov 17, 16:32 1
- Alternately: We need to cast someone in the role of a chain smoker. Who've we got? -- nm - Mop Nov 17, 16:36
Nathan just watched Ninja Cat. - Will Hunting Nov 17, 16:27 1
- :) -! -- nm - b. Nov 17, 16:27
amanda, I already live it; I don't need to watch it. -- nm - psilotum Nov 17, 16:22
that reminds me, from a way bb, not all pho is made with beef broth. -- (edited) - b. Nov 17, 16:19 1
- I almost had pho today, but it was busy at that place so I went nearby and had bento instead. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 16:24
Maya should end up with Farkle. He'd treat her well, and she deserves that. -- nm* - David Nov 17, 16:18 12
- Farkle is someone's name or is he just an enthusiast of the game? -- nm - Krusty Nov 17, 16:34 10
  - Farkle is Farkle! - David Nov 17, 16:36 9
    - I haven't but I watched Boy Meets World. - Krusty Nov 17, 16:47 7
      - In all seriousness, the three-part story we just watched was more complex than anything you'll see on "adult" TV. -- nm - Dark Callisto Nov 17, 16:51 4
        
        With you and David giving it a thumbs up I might give it a shot during the winter. This or Gilmore Girls? -- nm - Krusty Nov 17, 16:57 3
        
        Oh, definitely Gilmore Girls. -- nm - David Nov 17, 16:57
        
        Oh, definitely start with Gilmore Girls. -- nm - Dark Callisto Nov 17, 16:57 1
        
        Ha! Okay. :-) I've been looking for more TV shows and with these two I should be good for a month this winter. Thanks! -- nm - Krusty Nov 17, 17:01
      - I never watched Boy Meets World but I am extremely impressed by the quality of the sequel series. -- nm - David Nov 17, 16:48 1
        
        I had a friend that loved the show and so I ended up watching it often. - Krusty Nov 17, 16:52
    - And Stuart's son! - Dark Callisto Nov 17, 16:37
- But does Maya deserve Farkle? He shouldn't have to beg for her attention. He is human and he needs to be loved. -- nm - Mop Nov 17, 16:31
Little Drummer Boy Challenge -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 16:15 2
- Yes, we discussed. You are safe for nine days. -- nm - Spawn Nov 17, 16:17 1
  - Bleh, I like to live on the edge -- nm - Bacon Nov 17, 16:19
So you tell me, over and over again, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 17, 16:15 1
