    Quoted from swampfire:

    Confess that George Gomez looks a lot better at 67 than I do at 58.

    I confess I don't know what any pinball designer looks like besides Pat Lawler

    Maybe Steve Ritchie as well

    Mark Ritchie, no fukn clue

    #9304 1 year ago

    I can't believe how great Gomez was on stream last night. Very telling, very candid, informative. I didn't check in until late and not for long but very neat to have a guy just being honest and candid about pinball and Stern pinball

    He's the same in person, if you ever get the chance to meet him.

    God help me.

    I confess that I stopped posting in that thread, since nothing I would say would be very nice.

    #9309 1 year ago

    I confess I’ll be paying money to get rid of some pinball stuff in a couple hours.

    Quoted from RCA1:

    I confess that I stopped posting in that thread, since nothing I would say would be very nice.

    That's why i never opened it before. I saw the way the first one went and didn't want to be part of the rock chucking.

    Got through a couple pointless pages anyway.

    In the gym next door they add an O to everyone's name.

    Hey Davo! Seen Jimbo?

    Wouldn't work for me...Gazzo ... doesn't have the ring.

    Friend stopped by today. Was trying out the new game. I kept saying to hit the red arrow. Confess, I forgot he's color blind

    Quoted from EJS:

    I confess I thought I owned 0 blenders.
    As of today it turns out I own 2.
    Both of them are so old they (in my best Dr. Jones voice) belong in a museum.
    They were probably left here from last ladies making margaritas or something. Can’t believe I used to be able to drink those. The thought of them gives me a headache. And so do thinking of the margaritas

    The exact moment you discovered your 2 blenders mine broke. Had a Ninja delivered the next day.

    Was making a habanero sauce today. Used my ninja for the first time in forever.

    #9316 1 year ago

    I love habanero sauce. I would make some, but I have too many over commercial sauces in the fridge right now.

    Quoted from RyanStl:

    I love habanero sauce. I would make some, but I have too many over commercial sauces in the fridge right now.

    I googled a roasted habanero garlic sauce as I roasted a bunch on the bbq today. Had a 4.8 review so decided to give it a shot. I questioned it as I followed it. Should have followed my gut. It was disgusting. I poured it down the drain

    #9318 1 year ago

    Don't let the vegan website scare you because of course Habenero sauce is going to be vegan. This is the recipe I use and absolutely love. It's like a habanero version of Siracha.

    The only thing worse than knowing you have to get up for a crap in the middle of the night is not knowing you have to get up for a crap in the middle of the night.

    Here’s what I hate: you take a crap, then wash your hands, then you feel a 2nd wave come on while you’re drying your hands. Sometimes this repeats itself 3 or 4 times in 30 minutes. I’m like “come on colon, get your shits together”.

    Add showering into that mix and you have my morning routine.

    #9322 1 year ago

    I've run the same load of clothes through the washing machine 3 days in a row.

    Keep forgetting to take it out and put it in the drier.

    My favourite habernero sauce is a milder one that can be used on everything.

    It's a knockoff of a commercial sauce that the US guys get. I copped it off the net and it is a great gift that people love. Plus it's a no cook! all done in the blender.

    Tom's "Lotties True Bajan Hot Sauce" Knockoff
    • 12 md Habaneros, stemmed, seeded
    • 2 lg Cayenne peppers, stemmed, seeded
    • 1 15 oz can sliced Mango, drained
    • 1 c Cheap Yellow mustard
    • 1/4 c Brown sugar, packed
    • 5 tb White vinegar
    • 1 tb Curry powder
    • 2 ts Cumin
    • 1 tb Chili powder
    • 1 ts Salt, or to taste
    • 1 ts Fresh ground black pepper
    And now, the directions: Place the seeded peppers and vinegar in a blender and grind it fine. Slowly add the other ingredients and process until smooth.
    Pour into two 12 ounce Lotties jars and enjoy.

    You can serve gravy in a coffee cup, but you'll look like a fuckin idiot if you serve coffee in gravyboats.

    Thanks! Saved this to my bookmarks, will test this sometime.

    #9328 1 year ago

    If you like a hot sauce you'll love it. It's not siracha hot, and people who like spicy things generally can eat it, you don't have to be a complete chilli head.
    Plus it's mango based, so sweet.

    The mustard is US style mustard, not proper mustard, we call it mustard sauce here.

    When the guy at the stand said the front right ghost peppers were to hot for him, I grabbed two of them.

    Have a story for JohnnyPinball007

    In 1981 the Rolling Stones were touring and a stop was planned in Minneapolis. A radio station, KQRS 92.5 had a contest to win tickets. Mail your information in, and if they called your name on the air, you had 9 minutes to call in and claim them.

    I was at the distributor and the head of triple A told me he heard my name called on the radio. He didn't know how to get ahold of me and nine minutes had already passed. Oh well. I already scored some good seats anyway.

    A couple days later I was at home and heard a knock on the door. A young man was all excited and said I won. I told him I didn't win because I didn't call in, in time.

    He told me he called in for me, I had to go to the radio station and pick them up. He begged me to sell him the tickets or at least one.

    So I took him with and drove over there. Went inside and spoke with one of the people there. They ID'd me, and told me someone else had tried to pick them up. I said it must have been my younger brother. I got two tickets, thanked them and left.

    I drove back home, to drop him off at his car. I mentioned I wasn't happy with him impersonating me. He explained he wanted to get tickets and take his girlfriend. He was desperate. He pleaded with me again to at least sell him one ticket.

    I told him I sent in a bunch of entries. I had about $10 invested in that. I told him if he gave me $10 he could have both of them. He was over joyed to say the least.

    I never saw him again. I do hope he and his girlfriend had a great evening.

    the Rolling Stones

    I confess that by 1986, I was sick of hearing them, I cannot stand them anymore, except for one song, Ruby Tuesday, I have always loved that song for some reason.

    And thanks for that story, @LTG, you are truly a very AWESOME PERSON!

    Quoted from cdnpinbacon:

    I confess...my wife said out of the blue why do you watch the weather network on the weekends so much? I said no reason ..then one day she said..I don't like that girls hair. Is she on to me?
    [quoted image]

    There was a blonde meteorologist on ctv news network yesterday doing a 1 minute coast to coast forecast. Confess, I don't know the weather anywhere in Canada this weekend.

    Quoted from JohnnyPinball007:

    Seeing them live is a whole different experience. Especially post 1981 when they had Jovan back them and every performance no matter how big or how small got the full stage show.

    Quoted from RyanStl:

    That was great of you, but how in the hell did that kid find you?

    I wouldn't have been in the phone book. Maybe when the radio station kept announcing it before time ran out, they gave my address. Or when he tried to pick them up himself he saw it on something at the radio station ?

    I scraped the windshield this morning after spending 15 minutes in the garage looking for the scraper.

    I love my skintight straight leg Levis, but at 58 they fuck with my bladder.

    I promised the wife I wouldn't buy more useless crap. Saw these at a church rummage sale today and for 50 cents each, I couldn't resist buying them. Goes with the new soccer game.
