Arkansas Razorback basketball drinking game: take a drink every time ESPN shows Nolan Richardson in the crowd in Bud Walton Arena. Seriously, it's almost as bad as Doc Rivers at Duke games.

Bjork is on Colbert (wait, WHAT?!?) and she is wearing something made out of inflatable kids' swim toys. Her lips are moving, but it sounds like dolphin squeaks, not music. Apologies to all the Bjork fans out there, but I don't get it. ...

The only thing I infuse my vodka with is orange juice. No wait, sometimes I infuse it with triple sec and lime juice... (but not this early...)

I almost lost my breakfast on my keyboard. That is just horrible. I think this flavored-vodka craze might have gone too far. I cannot imagine where or when to use such a flavoring agent in a cocktail. I can see where it has purpose for sauces, but alcohol that can only be used in recipes does not have place in my liquor cabinet. Of all the flavored vodkas, only Yazi's Ginger Vodka stands out as a remarkable spirit.

My favorite infusion is ice and rigorous shaking.

I infuse my single malt scotch with whiskey stones.

Since REGIS retired, there are only Guest Co-Hosts with Kelly. She is silly and should be on a sitcom, again. I like it when her husband co-hosts, Mark. REGIS was the show, but he has retired.... Not the same. But that's life. C'est la vie. I don't care for the show either, but they do have GREAT guests on.

I was telling my girlfriend about Mike Cross, and then thought "Hey, I should see if he's playing anywhere near here soon"...so I looked it up and found out he had been in town the week before. Ugggh. Somebody didn't promote that show worth a damn. When I was a kid my parents took us to see him at the Cat's Cradle on Franklin...he's awesome.

(Good news is he will be back in Morehead in August. :happy-bouncyblue: )

Need some serious vibbin'!

Post by knights68 » February 3rd, 2012, 2:17 pm

Awaiting anxiously by the phone for this awesome job I interviewed for last week and this week (@ Lenovo!).
Did a phone interview last week with the Dept Mgr and then a phone interview with the other Mgr. Then a couple of days ago I went to a face-to-face interview... not with two, not with three, but with 5 people (plus another telephone interview with a mgmt member in Canada).

Waiting to hear at any time now as to whether I got it or not. Please vibe for me, I got a lot riding on this year and this job is the first of many big plans I hope to achieve!!!

:pray: :pray: Come om CTN mojo, work that magic!! :pray: :pray:
