If he's already bought the tickets and his kid is opening them on Dec. 25 then it's not a post-season game. You can't buy those yet. C'mon boys!

Short on time... Thanks to those in the crowd last night for making the game fun to listen to on the radio as I drove home with my son from his back to back hockey practices. Got home just after the Risto goal. This team is having FUN, they are relaxed and playing determined hockey. Seeing Dahlin's reaction to Risto's goal was amazing. He's a already a top tier defender in the league but moments like that remind you that he's 18 and also going through his "fan" stage at the same time. Props to RJ. The "you wanted it, here it is.. these guys are good, scary good". Man.... And finally, Brian Duff... please don't ever get rid of Brian Duff. Between barely being able to talk because of smiling to hard from the win to not being able to talk because of his recounting the cancer stories... he's awesome. Let's Go Buffalo.

Not reality yet... but very well could be any day now.

Did you start from the beginning? I had a friend tell me start with Season 3 when it came out. I did that.. I have gone back to watch some of the others from the beginning. I'm not totally sold that Season 3 is crazier, but there's some messed up stuff. I love the show though. It's right up my alley. It's a technology driven Twilight Zone.

No, I honestly don't think he'd figure out how to start the car yet. ?

So I mistakenly bought the ground version of peet's holiday blend. A mistake that I can live with. What I realized however (as I was measuring out that coffee) is that my burr grinder was no longer properly grinding the right amount of beans in the coffee I usually drink. It had been short by about 40% of the proper weight. So, I've been drinking this weaker coffee for quite some time. The good news is that the coffee still tasted pretty good. The better news is that now I have fixed the problem and the coffee tastes even better.

Once again missing part of the game due to youth hockey. Days like this make me wish the kid could drive himself... every other day makes me thankful he can't. Should be a good test.. they should be motivated. Let's Go Buffalo!

Love Cilantro.. I suppose I would not know what I was missing if it had tasted like soap to me. However, it does not, and I love it.

I hope he does honestly. It's sad he's in Toronto but you have to have respect for the guy.

it should work in a press. I would give it 24 hours in the fridge to get the best out of it. 12 hours is doable.

What coach has survived a GM change?

I don't see this team as a deep playoff run contender but they are starting to make me think that they have a really solid shot at being in the playoffs this season. That said, I still think they are due some hardship this season. They are a young team. I'd love to be wrong.

I've never tried heating cold brewed coffee but your question piqued my interest so I did a quick search. There appears to be supporting evidence that you can heat up cold brew. You probably won't want to microwave it but perhaps putting it over a heat source. I would imagine that will change the taste simply because of the impact heat has on flavor compounds. I don't think it will get more acidic as the acid was never extracted from the bean. I could be wrong. I recall having read an article at one point in time about there being a break point where certain compounds in coffee would be altered as it passed that temperature point. This was in reference to chilling hot coffee. I can't find any reference to it now. The gist was, don't do it. It would impart off flavors. As for storage, the biggest danger is oxidation. If you have a full container that is sealed will it will likely last a few days to a week. Some people talk about leaving it longer but you never know what their taste buds tell them is "still okay". I never make a massive amount of cold brew so its gone within days. When I do the keg it will have a layer of Co2 on it so that should help preserve it.

40lbs at a time? dayumn.

I mean.. they have 16, but I guess that's not important. ?

It's something that Tom Hanks communes with.

The problem is Glen Beck is a part of the machine. MSM external to the United States and not focused 90% on reporting US "news" is likely to be less corrupt. Less corrupt, but still corrupt in some ways. There's little doubt that French news stations will be painting a certain picture of the US to help French politics, as would other countries. The real problem is that no one really reports the truth, they report their interpretation of the truth. It's damn near impossible to get an unbiased opinion on events that occurred. At some point an editor has to make a decision about what facts are in or out. That's the bias point even in the most non-biased reporting. It doesn't help that the US population no longer wants to spend more than 15 seconds absorbing information. Can you distill it to 140 characters? How about a meme? An emoji? We're back to hieroglyphics for communication. Insane.

Cold Brew is less acidic than hot brewed coffee. It's much easier on the body. I love cold brewing and can't believe I neglected to mention it. Next year I plan on dedicating a small 3 gallon keg to it in my tap system. (I can't fit a 5 gallon keg in there that would hold beer). So 3 beer taps and 1 coffee tap. ?

The entire concept of this social media bill is garbage. How many investigators do they need to hire and who gets paid to look into it? "Please list your social media accounts:" - I have no social media accounts. Now someone needs to verify if I am telling the truth? How much work do you need to do to find my Twitter account or Facebook or some other social media platform where I don't link it to the same email or use my real name? Yeah...

The whole MSM thing is really bugging me lately. I've begun looking for news sources that have no real basis in the US to see how things differ. Of course I'm not sure that the same public mind manipulation isn't being utilized in every media market. Certainly not so much left vs. right as in the US but more pro/anti US.

Something something, secondary scoring. I can live with that.

I'd be worried about this team if I thought this was the best they could play. But I don't think that this is the best that they can play. I'm just waiting for what comes next.. I'll miss part of this as my kid skates in his first real Varsity game tonight. He'll be lucky if he gets 2 minutes of ice time over the game, but it'll be awesome to watch. Let's Go Buffalo!

Where does one find this coffee?

Just before I got back on here tonight I found an article about him. I had been reading his name as Mc-Gee-Oh and it wasn't clicking. As soon as I saw the ref reference I knew who it was. I was a fan of his when he was a ref. No reason other than he seemed fairly affable.

For the past two years the PP has been fantastic but they would lose. I'm fine with this right now. Granted, I hope it gets better. This was the most concerned I had been. Montreal looks like they have the Sabres number on the forecheck, even going back to last game, and the Sabres found a way to win... again. It's good. real good.
