TBD

Evidently unemployment has not really improved.  The percentage of the unemployed hasn't gone down since the recession began.  It is just peoples benefits run out.  I guess with the cut to 6 months from a year of benefits the reported rate will be much lower.

That is awesome but I stand by my comment ….:)

I could add other issues I've raised over the years directly with the Lord Hurwitz such as the high cost of beer, ticket charges, etc…….. I don't know if word got to you in Elba… I must admit its all blurring together at this point…there were also my rants about how Seth should build a medium sized venue.. of course none of this did anything but provoke laughter and the usual silly willy "DAR is awesome!" type comments

I have never had the courage to ask him I must admit whether what an ex 930 employee from the very early days told me.. he did seem a bit disgruntled and was imbibing liberally (also he was creepin on me) but he said that Seth made his money selling pot at the 930..and that is how he got his start..he was adamant about it… like I said you didn't hear it from me….also there were rumours he wa into field hockey players..

I bet seth had good weed back in the day.

i bet he didnt.  i bet he didnt have anything as good as, green crack.  no way.  somebody should name a strain of pot called, hey seth.

Sorry to disappoint, but my dad wasn't a record mogul at the level of Barry Gordy.

Here in all it's basic HTML glory is the website for Alembic Arts.  THe Johnny Allen record was only released on cassette and someday I hope we can put it out digitally.  Especially since Pistol Allen played drums on the session.  This isn't all of the releases my dad put out, just the ones that are available online.  He was also skeptical of digital downloads.

i'm sorry, but every one knows . . . once you date her, you gay.

It must suck being the 60+ guy in my office who eats a TV dinner for lunch each and every day of the week. That's TV dinners for lunch for 40 years.

Gosh, is it that hard to follow a recipe and make your own lunch? Or make a sandwich? Or get your wife to do it for you? Or go nearby outside where there are numerous food options?

I just don't get it.

I get very baffled by this in the grocery store.  The guys that fill an entire cart full of tv dinners and chunky brand soup.  It makes me sad.  I just imagine them at home alone, day after day, eating that crap in front of the tv. 

In this case, the guy has a wife and a ten year old kid. I wonder if neither of them cook.

Why do you all care?  I never question what my coworkers eat or the shopping habits of others.  Does it really matter?

When I was single I ate so healthy.  I had a salad with fresh fish in it almost every night.  Unfortunately, I was only single for 3 months.

This might be harder than you think. 

Unless his poor eating habits are driving up my insurance rates, it doesn't.

It was just a Random Thought.

Still, you have to feel for someone who doesn't get any pleasure out of food. I think it's called sympathy.

Maybe Chaz will say "hi" next time he sees you at the store.

I takes  leftovers from our dinners for lunch. I cook four nights a week, she cooks three nights a week. So I'm getting her to do it for me, right?

It is called being overly critical and a hater.  At least that is how it comes off.  You being sympathetic was the last thing I gleaned from your posts. 

That would be so amazing. Meeting a fellow boardie at the supermarket. Can you imagine?

I think you use the word "hater" very oddly.

Wait, what does "hater" even mean?

He's a good guy. Rest assured I feel sorry for him and I don't hate him.

No that isn't the same thing.  I don't eat leftovers so I don't really know about that. 

Back to the original subject: Some people don't like change.  They marry their high school sweet-heart.  Live in the area they grew up in.  Stay at the same job for 20+ years.  Eat the same thing for lunch everday.   Buy the same brand of car over and over again.  Don't like to travel outside of the country.  Drink the same beer every night.

I don't care, per se.  Just random thoughts I have at the grocery store.  And you are a liar if you don't scan other shoppers' carts and wonder stupid shit about them too.
