something I saw last week that made my day http://instagr.am/p/J_QYDbjki5/
That night I dreamed I saw Kyle riding on the upper deck of a tour bus and waved as he passed below. I got a courtesy wave back. Then I dreamed I was talking to John while sitting on bleachers or stands and I felt like he thought I was kinda lame. Maybe that's how I felt when we met during PAX East. However in both cases I felt better after the fact because it seemed like he was really paying attention. Your mind becomes very alert when you are interested in something, so I have read. Sorry, Michelle. No dreams lately. Anyway, just wanted to share, but didn't want to start a thread.

Kyle looks a lot older in that picture, must be the suit.

look any younger?

The show is here:

very nice. I need to listen again as I was paying more attention to the chat than the show. Holes will be patched!

Re: Hardcore Pawn: Les Gold is kind of an ironic name for a Jewish guy, given popular stereotypes.

as for American Pickers, see image below

google autocomplete FTW

One of the best shows Keep it up guys!

Everything has been updated!

I like Matt on here....Its good to have someone actually talk about video games with Michelle, instead of talking about the DS or pinball.

on John's apparent recommendation I picked up a box of Bota Box wine. This stuff is made in Manteca, which pretty close to where Two-Buck Chuck and other economy wines are made. The 3-liter bag o wine was $18 after tax with the BevMo card discount. First impression: not bad, but the flavor is very strong. It reminds me of a lot of wines at testing rooms were there is no charge to taste. There is not a lot of alcohol is the smell and taste, so the experience is more like drinking spiced up prune juice. I can feel a headache coming on already.

The Shiraz was best in class and is deemed their signature wine. I drank some with Panda Express and would say it paired well, especially when I added the pepper sauce.

I bought the Redvolution. It was a blend. It was aight.

Funny you bought it and tried it. And, yes, it is a little headachey.
