    Gigs

    Monday night... Peter Gabriel at MSG. I was never a fan of Genesis, but have always really liked Gabriel...he's one of the good ones. Never without a great band. Last night, at the Blue Note - Low Cut Connie.
  2. Nice knife. And not even crazy expensive.
  3. After Ori mentioned that Dave was eyeing his large ears...I figured he'd need a hatchet to chop them off.
  4. Maybe if they'd seen Dave with his hatchet...
  5. Quite easy at this point. But there was a time... I'd sure hate to have to share my percebes with anyone but Significant Eater.
  6. While I was perfectly happy (and excited) with the quail, I'd love to see Dave work his juju on a high-quality chicken in that oven.
  7. You almost had it, @hollywood10...until the second half, that is. Niners only a Deion Sanders or two away from a really good secondary.
  8. Probably why you're thinking of the Lindenhurst Lindenwood Diner! I don't necessarily need excitement at restaurants; I'm happy with good food and great service.
  9. Joe's had some health issues recently; think good thoughts for him.
  10. By coincidence (or because we had dined at Ci Siamo, and were walking a bit after dinner), we happened by this sculpture, by one of my favorite modern sculpturists. Adam and Eve, by Charles Ray. As is the way with Ray, they're very large. Don’t Call It Lobby Art: A Manhattan Development Is Livening Up the Street With Larger-Than-Life Works by Christopher Wool and Charles Ray Setting aside the horribleness of Manhattan West and other gargantuan projects in our fair city, it was nice to see this amidst the never-ending construction in that part of the world.

    Supper

    Zucchini and yellow squash, cooked to shit in olive oil, marinated a bit in its own stuff and red wine vinegar, chili pepper, etc. Good. Penne marinara. (Not my) balcony basil. Very good.
  12. Both @Sneakeater and I have eaten at Libertine. Sneak's post about it (possibly after I posted about it?) was way pithier than mine, but we both enjoyed the food and the "scene." I think.

    I like this idea! Lindenwood Diner

    Actually, there is a shopping center there... They were nice enough to keep the remaining bodies out across the street from the back of the stores.

    They're gonna need a lot of fill!! And sink those supports really deep.
  16. Imagine if they'd done a video of it! To think of what we pay for the Times.

    Were you looking for bodies?
  18. Actually, the question above was for @Sneakeater.
  19. At this point, I wish I knew what I was saying. Tell me this, though. Had you first listened to the song in question, over your speakers on your system sans video (I'm going under the assumption that the video was seen on a computer screen), like the way you used to critically review music, what would you think?
  20. You're the one who said: Criticize away. But maybe stop complaining?

    His parent's house was most likely torn down and rebuilt in the McMansion style. We only saw a few of what appeared to look like "original" homes. It's quite Szechuan. I am not familiar with the Union Tpke/Horace Harding area's old restos, growing up in lesser Forest Hills as I did.
