  1. I saw these at the Seattle airport last weekend: Rub with Love Some of them looked interesting, but I'm still trying to find a Dizzy Pig rub I don't like
  2. I tend to prefer a gallon of salt to a cup of water, but a normal heartrate is for people who don't like excitement! I do tend to be a bit heavy-handed with the old sodium chloride, but I can't say I've actually measured water or salt.
  3. Almost everything has a soluble component, especially when boiled. Some of the less salty ingredients like rosemary probably still add a bit of an essence, but you're right in that the flavor wouldn't be as strong as adding some to the outside. Oh yeah, it looks great, Deej!
  4. Thanks for the review, seems like a heck of an upgrade for an extra $22!
  5. In honor of Dennis' upcoming trip to beautiful Bangkok, here's a shot from a restaurant with a rotating platform on the roof. I've got about 2000 pictures from a trip to Thailand, mostly from temples and a nice garden we stayed at.
  6. At least in London http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/engl ... 025782.stm
  7. Welcome aboard; we look forward to hearing from someone with your kind of experience, and seeing all that food porn!
  8. There's a custody battle for the leg now!
  9. Re: "emotated" I like that! I think she's a lost cause, dub. This is the woman who thought Dizzy's "Shakin' the Tree" was too spicy
  10. 1 large bottle of super premium vodka or gin Bucket of ice Salt Picture of Antonio Benedetto Carpano Add salt to the bucket of ice to reduce the temperature. Put the bottle of alcohol into bucket of ice and cover with the picture of Carpano to keep it cool. Taste test regularly to check alcohol temperature. Estimate two liters of alcohol per guest per hour, unless DJ is coming in which case you may want to up the quantities.

    Nah, the loader was full of brisket so they wouldn't fit.
  12. My sister is a high school chem teacher and did pumpkin experiments over Halloween. She brought home the remains and had to find more creative outlets than pies, the family favorite was the pumpkin flan.
  13. I've been tempted to upgrade to a Blendtec just for this line of video ads
  14. In Asia they were also smart enough to locate their fault lines in the middle of the ocean instead of underneath major cities (including a city with a rather ill-conceived subway system...). In Taiwan I experienced my first Earthquake and it was an interesting experience; the SoCal girl I was with was terrified because it lasted about a minute, but there was no damage because the entire island shakes as one. One of the buildings has a huge sphere it uses is a rolling support column to help absorb the motion - kind of cool.
  15. I wonder where they're hiding... I guess it also depends on what you mean by cold - for FireMonkey it's anything below 70F
  16. Fun? You want to have fun here? That attitude will get you banned for life! Oh wait, make you a welcome addition - I forgot where I was for a second there.
  17. Bidding has ended, but this item has a colorful history.
  18. Nah, it's properly fatty food that keeps things lubricated. If you need roughage you can always scarf a bag of chips. If you need a little more help get the ones with Olestra
  19. Ya got green stuff all over your food, I hate when that happens!
  20. Sorry, we only like Nikon pics here You can download the ImageShack toolbar, that makes things nice and easy. Once you install it, just drag your pictures to the text box you type in and it will automatically upload it and put a link in your post.
  21. Luckily the train systems in Switzerland are a joy to use, I've spent quite a good deal of time in that beautiful country - mostly in Bern but I've flown into Zürich and Geneva (sorry, maybe it's my Teutonic pride but I prefer the former ). The man has taste! Well, I like the legs but the textured black is a great choice.
  22. Maybe Dennis needs to add a little window. Or a heat-proof webcam - ooo, with infrared imaging so you can see how hot your food is!
  23. Nah, nobody's mentioned it here until today. It gets mentioned all the time but this is where we put those indispensable tools like grill cleaners, chili cookers, and draft control devices.
  24. The Labor Day post above reminded me, someone found Kirkland lump at Costco. Mine doesn't have it so I'm not hopeful for yours, but you can try BJs and Sams as well. They'll usually let you in to look around without a card so you don't need to buy a membership.
