The QSL recently just re-opened after they closed and moved it to a new location south of the Interstate... There are better wings places that he could have gone to right there in Mina, New York...

But the comments were as a Marsupial of this type is an herbivore and veggies and fruit mostly as one of 3 different types if Marsupials "Diprotodonts - these are the largely herbivorous marsupials: kangaroos, wallabies, possums, koalas, wombats

This made me chuckle this weekend after the TEP party discussions. Cleaning out the basement and for some reason I still have this cup from a “John Tower Happy Hour” party at SU in the late 80’s. If you don’t know, John Tower was nominated for Secretary of Defense but wasn’t confirmed because of drinking and womanizing. Perfect subject for a TEP party.

no peeling, just cut off the stem and any blemishes. the spremipomodoro ejects the pomace (which is ran through again at the end).

ha, we used to go to Quaker Steak long ago in North Carolina. they had a “hot wing” challenge loosely based on the pyramid scheme… I’m no chili-head but only the last three wings were truly hot, we just got duped into eating endless types of mild wings getting to the top. buncha schiesters if you ask me

Most of them are Franchise operations now other than the original one down in Sharon, PA where it all began. Not sure if all the locations do the mentioned eating contest. It's been a number of years- pre-pandemic since I've been to the original location.

Ha! I haven’t thought about that place in years. We did a pilgrimage there in high school in some guys van with a case of beer and about 10 of us for the 1.5 drive. Ate our guts out on wings and made out with my pretty girlfriend the ride home.

Simpler times.

I hope that wallaby had it as good.

I don’t think I shared this here. I think somebody put it in ECRC though. Plattekill’s annual glade clearing day is Oct 28. I’m planning on attending

Forrest Gump : Lieutenant Dan, what are you doing here?
Lieutenant Daniel Taylor : I'm here to try out my sea legs.
Forrest Gump : But you ain't got no legs, Lieutenant Dan.
Lieutenant Daniel Taylor : Yes... yes, I know that. You wrote me a letter, you idiot!

this delicious double dan definitely has legs

I'd still call that mostly cloudy just because there was a small break in the clouds and the sun popped out for a few minutes.

Exactly. That cloud layer is so thin you can almost see through it. It’s practically glowing blue

having a post sand plains hike beer when duder shows up… cursing under his breath and telling me, i’d better back up. thought there was gonna be some fucking trouble, but turns he was bitching about his sister-in-law, not at me. apparently she didn’t want him to kill the skunk and made him bring it over here to let it go. duder has bigger balls than i do… you sure, as fuck wouldn’t find me standing behind the fucking skunk cage when that furry fucker comes out…

Attachment 473532
