Cloths? how do they work?

We don't boil ribs. We eat them raw, while dancing around a standing stone wearing the rest of the elk's bloody remains.

The Scots do deep-fry coffee, though.

Isn't eating raw venison inadvisable due to bacteria?

And how do you deep fry coffee even..?

I wouldn't know. I can't stand tea.

Heretic! Repent from your sins! Drink the heavenly tea instead of ghastly coffee!

For me it's more like I wouldn't be able to taste the difference between English Breakfast Tea, Irish breakfast tea and Scottish breakfast Tea.

Oh see I have a very delicate palette so I'm real good an picking out nuances of taste.

I don't drink coffee either. I hate them both. Tea is, in my opinion, superior to coffee solely because it doesn't stink up the whole place like coffee does. In fact, the smell of coffee makes me nauseous. Always has. Which makes my job extra fun since I have to make at least 5 1/2 gallon pots of coffee every day.

I googled it. Its the same idea as the deep fried Pepsi. You just add coffee to the dough and fry the dough.

The smell of old coffee grounds from having to do that has came close to turning me off to coffee its pretty rough.

Tonight, after at a gap of at least 12 years, I had TGI Fridays for dinner. I used to enjoy eating there, so I thought I'd try it again. The reason I hadn't eaten there in so long is fairly straightforward: the local one closed, and the new one didn't open until about 6 or 7 years ago. Since I rarely dine out, I usually stick to a small selection of places and it wasn't in the rotation.

I had the whiskey-glazed strip stead with a 1/2 rack of whiskey-glazed ribs, fries, and caeser salad. The salad was tiny. The bowl was maybe 3" square and 1" deep. It also had a very distinct lemon flavor, which I did not appreciate. The fries were also small. The same size bowl as the salad, but barely half full. They had also committed what I consider to be an inexcusable mistake with fries: they were limp and soggy. They really needed another 2 minutes or so in the fryer. The steak and ribs were both really good, but the glaze/sauce was sweeter than I remembered. Not enough to put me off, but more than I would have preferred.

All in all, an okay meal, but I don't think I'll be going back anytime soon.

They're a part of the rotation. Not too often though. Just sometimes. Usually if I want a steak, I go with Outback.

Outback does make a mean Surf and Turf.

So I'm reading up on Kickstarter and Its easier then I thought but still a lot of work. At least it makes it seem doable.

I get a steak and a bloomin' onion. I don't care for most seafood. I've only had lobster twice, both times at non-chain seafood places, and didn't care for it either time.

I suspect the fund-raising would be the easier part. You would still need to get editing, playtesting (you're not planning to skip that, right?), layout, artwork, and publishing lined up. Sounds tough. Better you than me.

I have a Artist who is interested in the project If I can get her and the editor/formatter payed via kickstarter (I think that works that way right?) The only hard part is publishing which there is a lot of places that are out there that do the order by the book (I think drivethruRPG works that way)

We have done some play-testing for the last year and a half me and my friends. It really was a huge boon. Helped me find some flaws and places to improve. I could go for some more.

You could pay for it after the Kickstarter, but it would probably help to have at least some concept art available for the campaign. That would almost certainly have to be paid out of pocket beforehand.

Yeah me and her are going to work that out for sure. I kind of thought that too. Really If I had a friend that was an editor I could practically do it in house. (minus the publishing part)

Apparently LEGO is releasing a 2300+ piece Voltron set later this year. I am intrigued.

Which is pretty cheap for big ass Lego sets.

Which is also why Lego sets were one of the top items people threw fits over if they were told no.

And yes, that goes doubly for adults.

Yeah I know lego's are super expensive. They usually are quality too but 180 dollars for a toy is just so out there. I guess some parents will get it for there kids however... Probably mostly big kids getting for themselves. (I mean I was tempted.)

I think I remember getting a Voltron toy when I was about 13 It stood about to my chest at the time. It was probably about 75 dollars. Lost like every little piece for it by the 1st week who knows where it is now.

No no I read the agreement kickstarter has to be an actual product or something tangible for the investor. What I would need for that would be a gofundme page.

Offer to send the backers a picture of you with the toy.

You'd think so, but no, big ass Lego sets are for the parents and twenty something year olds with disposable income and the lack of self control to splurge 200 dollars on a toy.

The most expensive set I sold was the aircraft carrier thingy from Avengers Age Of Ultron.

Here is a picture of me putting the Lego Voltron together. Notice the large Smile on my face! That is the face of gratitude right there. And he is me playing with The now constructed toy while humming the original Voltron theme. etc. etc.

Huh I guess there is not much of a rhyme or reason to the scale of the lego sets. I see a millenium falcon for 800 dollars thats bigger then the deathstar (500 dollars.)

Now I'm pretty sure I remember spiderman in homecoming talking about having one of those things. It makes me feel like Stark is paying him to much.

It was the 1970's equivalent of Harry Potter... orphan boy goes to live with his uncle, who turns out to be a warlock, and their next door neighbor is a witch, and they have to stop an evil wizard and his wife from using the boy to cone back from the dead.

What made it particularly cool was that Edward Gorey did the illustrations.

With beer, I think they freeze cubes of it inside sausage casing, and then deep-fry the frozen cubes. Theoretically by the time it is served, the beer is supposed to be at a normal temperature inside the crispy dough.
