| So I just got done rolling through t-bell after pokerz at a buddies house, and Mcdonalds is right next door. Its about midnight 30 here at the time. Anyways sitting at the window waiting for my food, and some dude goes blowing through the mcdonalds like front yard display stuff and smashes into a parked car and flips over it. He was probly going 40+ mph so he def smoked the fuck out of it. No one was in the parked car, but I'm pretty sure the dude that was driving got messed up in the wreck. Medics and cops were swarming in like 2 minutes (surprise surprise), but it was BY FAR the craziest shit I've ever seen in my life. I would have laughed if I knew the guy wasn't hurt. |

1) Your first name starts with J, you don't like when people write out the actual name because it's a rare name and youre paranoid.
2) The reason you're paranoid is probably because youre half black a.k.a part time criminal.
3) Your mom is white though. A nice little white lady.
4) You have a ghetto brother or two, you live with them or used to.
5) You used to valet cars as a cover for something more sinister.
6) You apperantly don't like when people make incest jokes about you and your sister.
7) You once had an idea of starting a fast food restaurant near college, open late hours serving greasy food to potheads
8) You had a longtime gf named Emma
9) You fuck gingers, at least one but I fear there's more
10) You may suck my especially small penis |

uh... wow.. Im pretty sure this is ake..
edit: I know most of that stuff is easily searchable, however there are a few things on the list that Im pretty sure were not publicly posted, and on top of that I remember speaking with ake about..
I have three questions though:
1) what do you think about your countries socialist ways? What effect have they had on you?
2) what country do you travel to by boat to get cheap booze?
3) last I talked to you, you had gotten your own small apartment. You were waiting (a long time) to get internet though. Where would you go to use the intertubes, and who lived there? |

no real story behind it, just my biz partner/roommate and i have talked alot about making $ outside of poker and after some research we think the real estate thing is a great way to do it. plan is to buy a few single family homes at first, then keep trading them up until we own lots of big apartment complexes.
| boost wrote: | | Whats the company all about? Something to do with the market? |
its about getting a loan for a place and then letting whoever is live there pay off the mortgage. it will be super hard to lose money doing this because theres so many great deals we can get right now with the real estate market being so beaten down (and also people needing cash to cover other investments) |

ya, def man! Common sense dictates that now is the time to find smart investments in real estate and stocks. But people are such lemmings, and this is what makes it such a good time to invest.
Where are you looking to buy? |

light, heavy, heavy, heavy, light.
fish, fish, other, fish, chicken, other, fish.
I dont really get the progression of this tasting at all. And some of the dishes are just downright awkward. Like, what lace does angel food cake have on that plate? And whats up with the plating? The scrambled egg dish has all the main components on the rim of the plate which is especially bad on this plate since if you press down with your knife the thing seems likely to tilt.
Some cool techniques going on, but beyond that...
oh and epic bump. |

berlin was all late nights in nakoeln and kreuzberg
singapore in a couple of days
then Miri (malaysia, on borneo) for a few weeks as a base for dive trips and maybe a mountain. Plus cheap street vendor feasting. Legality of poker there? then NZ and summer and climbing and surfing and outdoor festivals. Maybe a few weeks in oz thrown in.
Then...... hopefully vegas july 2010 |

Ah, the plates look ginormous. They are saucer sized, then?
I'd say dessert plate sized but dessert is never served on small plates anymore. |

| flomo, obv I cant comment on service but from what I can see the texture and flavor combos look a bit strange. But having not experienced them they could be damned good. Also I thought the first post was the entire meal. Still there seems to be no sense of progression much less any respect paid to classical progression. Also Im gonna come out and say it... the plating just straight up sucks. |
