  1. I don't recall how many years ago I had stopped posting on this forum, but looks like someone hasn't missed a beat on hounding me. No mystery as to why this place became a ghost town, but I tried to give it a second chance...
  2. So I'm reading this Hamlin fellow is showing good signs, conscious and interacting. I didn't see the collision, but heard it wasn't unusually brutal. There's discussion on my Giants board about an increase in various athletes' cardiac occurrences these last 2 years, and documentation of that in young males who were vaccinated.
  3. Things have definitely changed, even with the places that made it through that. Having lived in the same area all my life, it's heartbreaking to see some things that had family activity memories gone now. Seems down by the water is the most hard hit.
  4. Funny that the owners didn't think PSLs would keep fans from attending games, and the league gave one of the worst attendance draws an annual Thanksgiving game.
  5. Something Bonger brought up - I can't fathom why a team's broadcast would be blacked out, especially if the game sells out. Do the Lions sellout every Thanksgiving?
  6. You don't seem to miss much, whether it's good food or music. I don't think we've been out for seafood, since early last year. I'm sure the wife would jump on that, maybe I'll treat her soon.
  7. I only have a gas grill, but put a tray of soaked wood chips right over the burner and a smaller size brisket off to the side. But still got an impressive "bark" and the center was nice and juicy.
  8. It's magical, what happens to that fat in the process.
  9. Bay scallops used to be very plentiful and super cheap. Usually we breaded and fried them, not bad. But fresh seared Sea Scallops - that's gourmet eating...
  10. Nothing prouder than your first successful brisket, that's a whopper!
  11. Scallops are my favorite seafood, but not at the price they are lately. They keep trying to re-introduce seedlings to local waters, but it looks like they'll never recover. Do you use Rana pasta products? I've been finding them to be a nice variety and almost always on sale.
  12. Well, we're close to the bay, high water table... then they built a lot of new houses on watershed areas with underground streams.
  13. Ah, memories of the 70s. When no one had sewer connections yet, cesspools regularly bubbled up, smells and poop eating critters were abound, and someone falling into a collapsed one was an annual event.
  14. Especially with football being the ultimate team sport, I always hope for those who think they're above that to fail miserably. Unfortunately, not enough do and many even get praise for "sticking it to the man". No, you're just ruining it for us fans...
  15. Our neighbor back then was "the egg man", he delivered them in an old station wagon. All night long you could see him in his basement, checking each egg with a light bulb.
  16. Of course! And for New Years I've got a nice rack of lamb - your favorite, right?
  17. Wasn't there a purely politics thread here, long ago? I don't see an issue with having just that, and keep it there for the most part. "Random Thoughts" should be just that, something for all to ponder - not obsessions and condescention from both sides.
  18. Kosher delis are great, we have Bens here on Long Island that does a nice job with the comfort foods.
