Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

Yay, my dad let some jackhat take $180 and then take his computer over last night to fix it.

I seriously don't fucking get it. He isn't allowed to install software since he fucks up his PC so bad once a year it needs a format. I install anything for him remotely.

Now I guess it is time for all new credit cards, passwords etc.

Mom's Dell needs a fresh install every four to six months.

I don't understand how typing papers and answering work based email can do things to this computer I never managed to do as a teen, with porn, torrented music and movies, gaming, I don't get it at all.

Going to be in Chicago on Monday night. Any place in the ORD area or in North Chicago that's a must stop for a bite to eat?

not Ord, but define north Chicago

We will be headed to Racine. Any suggestions for something with entrees in the $25 range?

You can only buy 3.2 beer here in grocery stores.  They changed the city ordinance to allow Sunday liquor sales here till 8pm a few years ago, its great.

That 3.2 beer is bull shit because it makes Budweiser dilute to be able to sell in walmart

From my understanding all the big beer companies just packaged the same beer in a can that said 3.2 and paid a fine.

Maybe it got more stringent and that changed. Or it was an old wives tale.

Nowhere in Racine. Cult classic that fits your price on the way back is Bob Chinn's crabshack. Restaurant grosses $25M/yr as the #1 restauratn $ in the country. They do it with cheap seafood in a cheap atmosphere. I love the place, but you can't just blindly order. Just don't get anything breaded smile.png

$25 doesn't really buy you shit otherwise in Chicago. Hell $100 is tough.

What's ironic is Bud light is the same ingredients as Budweiser just prepared differently to lower the alcohol content. At least that's what I remember from my interview/tour.

And Matt, no fine needed. 3.2 has to be something like 3.2 or less +/-.3 which means many standard beers already tickle that range. The light beers are regularly just the same beer.

Tore by bicep tendon completely off the bone. Sucks!!!! Surgery monday morning, recovery 3 months......

Trying to lift a little 80 4wheeler into the bed of truck and heard a loud 3 pops, kinda like popping your knuckles. Fingers went numb and felt like it was ran over by a car. Atleast it was my left arm. 

 

Crap, have a speedy recovery!

Back at work from another ski trip. This one was tiring, ice in the morning, wet snow after lunch. I did land a few jumps and have far less bruises than on my last trip.

Which is why any self respecting Texan keeps a fully stocked liquor cabinet.

If you are running to the liq everytime you want a drink you have a drinking problem.

Then there are those of us who have one of every type of major liquor, 300+ bottles of wine, a couple cases of beer and whatever mixer you could imagine on hand always. I don't have the problem of trying to find alcohol.
