Good. Still pulls to the right a little, but I'm going to swap the two front tires and see what's up. He said he only tweaked it.

But how would you know? You have to HAVE hair before you can tell whether it's gray or not!

I take a shower once a week, so that's no excuse. Well, except in the middle of winter when the water's all froze up, but it's not usually froze as early as Christmas.

Besides, who doesn't like the smell of sheep?

Evening Scottchrisericmarkclaudedonrick.

Chris, I like the new avitar!

Scott, depends on the sheep. If they smell better than a madhats floated kegerator beer fart, I guess they smell good.


Made some homemade clam chowder for dinner tonight. Good stuff!

Matt, that sounds good... I'm eating a piece of leftover bbq chicken.

Chris, that's fine. I've had much worse pictures taken of me and passed around.

I like it either way, but I take issue with a lot of restaurants around here that advertise 'New England Style" clam chowder, then serve it thick like a stew. Real NE Chowder of any type is thin, more like a soup than a stew. The clams we get here are rather small too, so I don't know if they're really clams or some other kind of fish masquerading as clams. I ordered some scallops when I was in Chicago last year only to find out they were actually little round pieces of either skate or flounder.

Tell me about it! I'm sort of spoiled to begin with, but a lot of this stuff isn't even close.

I know what you mean scott, I have relatives that live in NE, most are in Vermont. Anyways I've had chowder out there and its awesome. The chowder you get around here is THICK. Mine is thicker, but not too watery, just my and my family's preference. I use a clam the store calls a cherry stone clam, it's whatever the fresh seafood counter has. Good little clams but you gotta use alot of them. I've had the same problem with seafood around here. Some places market that they have scallops or a certain fish when in fact they are using a whitefish or cod in its place. I only buy my seafood from the counter at the local store, just so I can see what I am buying.
