I agree with a lot of what NYC5IKH5jabi says, but have two notes. One, though most Sikhs I have known sound a lot like him, my ex-wife and her family, Sikh's all, were some of the most arrogant, anti-Semitic, pro-capitalist people i have ever known (ex father-in-law teaches business and...

Somebody posted the old Subgenius flick, ARISE the Subgenius! on Youtube. Insane.

Forgot to include the translation of the Prajnaparamita Hridaya mantra - "Gate, Gate, Paragate, parasemgate Bodhi-svaha" = "Going, going, going on beyond, always going on beyond, always awakening Bodhi-nature (becoming Buddha)"

Uncle Al: And the entire Heart Sutra (Prajnaparamita Hridaya Sutra: When Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara practised the deep Prajnaparamita, he saw that the five skandhas were empty; thus he overcame all ills and suffering. "O Sariputra! Form does not differ from the void, and the void does not...

I stopped using my LSV when I got my OG Cloud. The LSV, IMHO, didn't come close to that, let alone to the EVO, which is even better.

Can't tell by looking at it, but this may be the most decadent pulled pork yet. Continuing my post-sauce-spill experiments, I remembered I had a half bottle of really, really, really good sauternes from a Grand Cru estate, Chateau Doisy-Vedrines. So I used a big chunk of the half bottle to...

So, due to my spill incident described above, I have ~10lbs of slow-roasted pork and no sauce. So I've been experimenting with quick bbq sauces, and found a shockingly easy and tasty one. Throw 7-8 oz pulled pork in a pan to reheat. Hit it with a couple of tablespoons of good cream sherry...

I do not drink often at all - from a family of Russian alcoholics - but when I do, I admit I am a beer snob. Just picked up a six of my overall favorite - Theakston's Old Peculier. Beautiful black British ale.

This is so embarrassing. Spent hours making a beautiful sauce for a slow-cooked, dry-rubbed pork shoulder (got sick of waiting for help putting my smoker together and slow roasted it - dry rub was himalayan pink salt, dark brown sugar, whole mustard seed, a small amount of Thai 5 spice I...

SD is also a component of my current fave strain, 3 Kings- it's a combo of Headband (which itself contains SD in its background), Sour Diesel and OG Kush. Absolutely awesome for nerve pain.

My problem with e-cigs isn't the tech - I love tech - but the taste. Have yet to find a single juice that tastes like actual tobacco. Unfortunately for me, I was raised in a tobacco-crazy subculture. Been smoking a pipe since I was 5ish. So I like the taste and smell of tobacco. I've looked...

An ounce of your soul? Appears to be a reference to Clint Eastwood's "The Man with No Name" from A Fistful of Dollars, A Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Which, given the weird-ass direction Clint has gone, makes me vote for ritual destruction even more. I'd burn the...

I don't even know you and I call bullshit. You are neither a saint nor a buddha or this thread wouldn't exist. You SHOULD try to be more understanding of your ex, people who have been trapped in truly destructive marriages, people who have found themselves married to serial philanderers or...

Please find me a single example of a culture that truly had no divorce provision. Men could almost always get out - even Henry VIII only had a problem because he wanted a retroactive annulment of a marriage that had issue, and where the other party (Katherine of Aragon) was at least as...

I heartily agree. My divorce, for instance, probably saved my ex's life. Before hitting 30 we both found ourselves chronically ill, me with a degenerative spinal disease her with MS. Her asshole rich parents wouldn't pay for her meds while she was still married to me. So we got divorced. I...

My new pup, Cyrus Jaxartes, has been on a bit of a tear. He broke my Early Bird straight-neck HT (had a growth spurt and could suddenly reach where it was), stole a pack of smokes which he promptly ruined, and then an hour ago peed on my foot. To give him the benefit of the doubt, I had fallen...

Well, Stephen Fry, a personal fave celeb of mine, seems to like using the French version for vaping scotch (at about 23:00)

AAARGH!!! My puppy just broke my Early Bird hydratube!!! Turned my back for all of a second, with the HT where he wouldn't have been able to reach it two days ago. But he had a growth spurt, enough to allow him to reach it on the table and knock it over. FUCK!!!! $350 to replace it, and...

Can be bad with the acid. On mescaline, though, a mirror can be funky funky fun. Once fell into my own optic nerve and into my brain.
