William, it was really nothing

My company is very data driven, so I created this important slide to aid our discussion about Lil Wayne blowback.
“Firecrackers: The silent killer”
Anyone have any suggestions in the documentary or comedy-movie genres?
Merril Bainbridge — Mouth
I like the Katrina and the Waves vibe of this song, the 90s pop sentiment and the fact that the album I stole this from contains, ostensibly, 70 years of “romantic” hits.
That’s got to be one hell of a Time Life collection.
Robin Thicke — Blurred Lines f/ T.I. and Pharrell
At some point, I need to come to grips with the fact that if James Brown knockoff tracks are what tickles my giblets, then I should probably just go listen to James Brown.
On the other hand, this is an obvious summer barbecue danceparty monster, and I’ve listened to it five times in the last 25 minutes.
Unrelated, at karaoke the other night I was well-imbibed and attempting to shake my insubstantial ass when someone even deeper in the bag walked up behind me, paused for second and said “Boy, you’ve got a tight wiggle.”
I don’t even know what that means, but I’m having business cards made.
Dinner tonight:
Smoked Prime Brisket
This is just the point, which was further hacked into burnt ends (currently rendering the rest of their fat on the stove). The flat’s in a cambro, resting until dinner.
I’ve always been a pork guy — and will continue to be — but I’m learning that my previous aversion to brisket was because I’d had a bunch of bad brisket.
This is not that.
Just taking a propane torch to a 60-day dry-aged sirloin roast.
As you do.
Soft Shell Crab Po’ Boy @ Big and Little’s.
The Priceline.com rental car math engine is drunk.
Dinner Tonight:
Ricotta Gnocchi, Guanciale, Pignoli, Parmesan, Thyme
I’ve basically forgotten how to cook, plate or photograph food, so I hope you’ll indulge me as I try to get back into practice on all counts.
Au Cheval Burger
Chef’s sashimi @ Juno
Sloe Gin Fizz @ The Barrellhouse Flat.
Beastie Boys f/ Santigold — Don’t Play No Game That I Can’t Win (Major Lazer Remix)
Today was a pretty aggressive mess. This is good noise.
