What's new

The Coffee House

Great hockey tonight. What a game. Man, the Caps are punishing the Lightning. Been some great goaltending as well.
I was wondering how this was going to turn out. It looked like the old Caps for games three and four.
 
Morning all. Another day in the south. Starting to get muggy, thanks to the pop up showers. Grass growing means mowing again. My buyer came by with a trailer to pick up the tractor yesterday evening. I'll admit I felt some remorse at seeing it go. One of the most trouble free pieces of equipment I'd ever owned. Used it for over 15 years and sold it for $500 more than I paid for it. Still a dependable, solid little work horse that the new owner will likely get another 15 years of service out of if he takes care of it.still have a few pieces of equipment to trade or sell for a larger Bush hog and disc. Especially if I trade the Kubota on a bigger model this fall. With all the respiratory problems I'd really like to have one with a heated/AC cab.

I'd be surprised if a lot of Tampa players can even get out of bed today. Every hit they put on those guys was brutal, all night long, and that is how you beat them guys. Caps are so big and physical. Those guys need to have eyes in the back of their head. It's gonna come down to the goalie Wednesday night.

Caps played very defensively, not allowing many opportunities. They are shooting more, which has always been one of their weaknesses.
 
Well it started cloudy and windy here this morning, but now it is quite nice out.
 
4.19 hours today 9.33 for the week so far.
Taking a few groceries for my Sister home.
Later gators.

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. Presently 60F and overcast. It is projected to hit 70F. June gloom we call it ... no shadows but it keeps us cool.

Gary got an attempted scam yesterday. An official looking Apple receipt came into my email. It was for iCloud memory upgrade, $49.98 with a $.01 tax. There was a "Cancel Purchase" button which Gary hit and he was transported to a very very official looking Apple page requesting additional information in order to confirm the Cancel Purchase. Gary started to scroll down the page and they want name ... okay, address, credit card number, DOB, social security number ... what-the-hell ... so Gary calls Apple and gets human. A very nice gentleman confirmed Gary's suspicion of the scam. So be careful our there. Gary forwarded the email to Apple. Apple has a department dedicated to tracking down scammers. Gary requested that if Apple caught the scammer to let them know who turned them in.
 
Rain, again, but not what we've been having - only looking for 1/2", or so.

I have gotten quite a few "Thank you for your order/purchase" scam emails lately. I ignore the emails and double check my credit card activity online. Also beware of the Netflix "change your password" request email that is going around. I changed my password just to be safe but I did it from my Netflix account, not from the email.
 
Gary has the Tri-Tip in the Sous Vide, cooking it for tomorrow's Hollywood Bowl dinner. French Dips with Gary BBQ sauce.

The kitchen smell heavenly. In a frying pan, Gary gave the Tri-Tip a bit of a singe for flavoring. The meat was heavily seasoned and much of the seasoning remained in the pan. Gary remove the meat and tossed in minced garlic and onion into the pan. Gary cooked all that up and tossed the garlic, onions and leftover seasoning in with the Tri-Tip. A little wine, a lot of BBQ sauce and into the water it all goes for about 28 hours. Tomorrow, Gary will sear the meat again and give the final rise in temperature ... then viola! Extremely flavorful and tender Tri-Tip sandwiches.
 
In the New York Times crossword today the clue for 25 across was “”Original of an old photo, informally.” The answer was “neg”. I think a letter to the Times might be called for, letting them know film is still alive and kicking.
 
. . . and the thunder storm has arrived.
