cryptique Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Me too. In fact, we're thinking of taking a day trip to Cleveland some weekend and checking out one or both of his restaurants. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I see your "nerd" and raise you: I was going to go to a theater to watch a sneak preview of a Battlestar Galactica movie tonight, but I felt lazy and am staying home to watch Heroes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

poppydawn Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I miss the days when Food Network had cooking shows. I get tired of documentaries and pseudo-cooks like Rachel Ray and Sandra Lee. But damn if I don't love Alton Brown a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

poppydawn Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I also watch Bourdain on the Travel Channel. Me too. Love him! Have you heard about the "No Reservations" holiday special? I'm planning my Christmas party with my nerdy friends around it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Oh hell yeah. When are the new ones starting back up?Dunno. There are still a bunch I haven't seen from past seasons, though, so I hope to catch up a bit while they're showing reruns. (I've seen the Ghana one they're showing tonight, though.)

PigSooie Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Anyone read any of his books? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the carlos Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I've never seen the show but there is a decent article about him in the new Outside. He seems interesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yermom Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 This is my main CormacmaclirWow. You are a nerd! (I love me some nerds though!)Here's my nerdiness for this evening: I contemplated trying out xbox live but couldn't figure it out so I'm going to read a book after I put my kiddo to bed instead.

poppydawn Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Anyone read any of his books? I haven't read any of his fiction, but I've read all of his non-fiction books. "A Cook's Tour" is one of my favorites. I've been gradually working my way through "The Nasty Bits" for the past few months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
napoleon Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 i try wayyyyyyyy too hard to be humphrey bogart. i mean, imagine play it again, sam... times 10. i seriously can't drive without wearing my fedora, i mean i absolutely refuse to. the girl sitting behind me at the theater the weekend before last asked me to take it off because she couldn't see. it hurt to do, but i took it off since she asked nicely. i've had pneumonia for the past week, and when i went to the doctor last week he walked in the door and looked directly at my fedora, then at my pajama bottoms and just laughed. and to make it worse, i'm made up of about 50% bogie and 50% greaser. i listen to wayyyyyyyyy too much doo-wop and rock and roll. i get the weirdest looks when i pull up next to someone on the road and i'm wearing my fedora and blasting buddy holly. i'm not a car fan, not even remotely, but i'd seriously give up a testicle to have a black convertible '57 chevy bel-air.

napoleon Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 speaking of new movies, i'll probably volunteer to work (i work at a movie theater) on thanksgiving day just so i can see the indiana jones 4 trailer... and i'll probably get fired from watching it all day instead of working.

Lammycat Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I printed about fifteen NY Times friday & saturday crosswords tonight.I realize the Saturday (and often the Friday) NYT Crossword is more difficult than the Sunday, but I get really, really excited in anticipation for the Sunday one each week. I've been doing it for about 20 years and have rarely missed a week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
