Hey neat, I'm using a "gibberizer" for work:

what does evan have to do with that?

I love cobbler. I'm sure I mentioned I made peach cobbler a few weeks ago. It was spectacular, if I do say so myself, especially considering it isn't peach season.

― Calico (calico), Friday, 8 December 2006 20:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Speaking of it not being peach season, I have found that frozen peaches are pretty good for baking with! Throw peaches in a baking dish, sprinkle with sugar/cinnamon/nutmet, top with mounds of biscuit dough, and bake until dough is brown. Maybe at 350 degrees? It's flexible. AND DELICIOUS.

Kugel is amazing.

I belatedly realized I should've called you when I was racking my brain trying to remember what it was called.

That's not really gibberish, is it? This is gibberish:

moomoo floompah rumpalumpa schmee. Hummah hummah maka froopah moo.

(xp) Ha, not true. In fact, I tried to call my friend Aaron (I know, right?) who first introduced me to kugel in college -- but I guess I must have an old number for him because I got a "not in service" message.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 8 December 2006 20:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I mean Jêwìsh frìêñd.

No, but it's what dudes use to internationalize software, apparently (like to show that the strings can be changed for translation).

Hush, I have Kontroll and a documentary about Jewish homos coming today, I am very excited.

Trembling Before G-d? I tried to get people to see that with me a few years ago, but no one bit, so I still haven't seen it.

Yeah!

Jenny did you end up seeing this?

i wrote a paper on that movie once

― 69 (pete), Friday, 8 December 2006 21:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Is it good? I haven't seen it yet (just popped it on netflix) but I got the Zorn soundtrack a long time ago.

― JordanC (JordanC), Friday, 8 December 2006 21:04 (seventeen years ago) link

None of you take Metra, do you? Apparently there was a shooting at Ogilvie this afternoon, and all trains have been delayed until further notice.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Ooooh I do. All lines? I ride the Electric.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Ah, looks like only ones that come in and out of that part of the Loop.

"ones" GOD DAMN IT I'M RETARDED

Oh yeah I forgot about you, Dan!

Hi, Chicago. Bye, Chicago.

I rented a car today and it is such a color as to maybe earn me some extra $$ as a gypsy cab. Weird that they would make a rental of a compact car in Taxi-Cab/OSHA Yellow.

I leave for the Great Lakes state tomorrow AM.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:28 (seventeen years ago) link

I think I'm okay, but I'm going to go to the station early just to be sure.

And yes, I am v. selfish to be concerned with my commute when someone may have lost their life. :(

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:29 (seventeen years ago) link

No no, I think this is the distilled essence of city living.

― JordanC (JordanC), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeh. The reason I was talking about the rental car is that it has no CD player, but it does have an "Audio In" jack. Hooray! This saves me time and effort of burning CDs.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Shooting think looks like someone went postal on the 38th floor?

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:35 (seventeen years ago) link

There is nothing wrong or even wrong-sounding (to me) about "ones." You could change it to "Only those trains that I take..." but I think "ones" is probably preferable in casual conv.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Just talked to Jenny. Apparently things are all kinds of fucked up downtown. She was wondering why, after getting out of her exam, she could not get home.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:43 (seventeen years ago) link

And yes, I am v. selfish to be concerned with my commute when someone may have lost their life. :(

This was pretty much Jenny's reaction. Though I do have to say that I don't think she knows the extent of what's up.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:44 (seventeen years ago) link

She was wondering why, after getting out of her exam, she could not get home.

Uh oh. I didn't think this had an impact on CTA, though. In fact, CTA is supposedly honoring Metra tickets tonight.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:46 (seventeen years ago) link

HELP!

hello chicago ILX people! i'm not in chicago. i'm in toronto. i haven't read any of this thread so i have no idea what i'm interrupting... but anyhoo...

i just found out i'm going to chicago tomorrow! so i need knee-jerk, off-the-cuff, top-of-your-head suggestions for what i should do tomorrow (saturday) night. i'm staying at the hilton downtown (michigan ave), so i assume i'm fairly central, but probably all the cool stuff is further away. i'm not afraid of cabs. i won't be heading out until 10-11ish, and would prefer a cool bar/spot rather than a gig.

ideas?

― Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh wait. Apparently it was all just wacky activity on the street. She said CTA is fine.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 22:56 (seventeen years ago) link

the offender was armed with a snub-nosed revolver, a knife, and a hammer. he was shot to death by the cops. he may also have shot himself.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Also, Metra is working again.

Rumors kill thread.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:24 (seventeen years ago) link

going home kills thread.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Enough filth/hilarity for one day -- I'm going home! Actually that's a lie, I'm going to eat pork dumplings with Carly. See you popsicles later!

― Laurel (Laurel), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Hi Rob.

There isn't much to do downtown. I'm not feeling particularly inspired so I'm just going to state the sort-of-obvious and say go to Wicker Park (northside Damen stop on the Blue Line). There's lots to do there. The Damen/Division area has bars, but it'll also be clogged with hipsters. There are a few good spots, like Small Bar, Rainbo, and Gold Star. Others will probably dispute my choices (and rightly so) but that's what springs to mind at the moment.

Keep us updated, maybe some of us will come out?

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Friday, 8 December 2006 23:48 (seventeen years ago) link

What's the name of that bar where we went with Pete Smith where Jeff got Kravitzed? That's a pretty good bar for the location.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Saturday, 9 December 2006 02:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Or SHIT, go to Old Timers! Lake and Michigan.

I'm revisiting my childhood by watching Letterman clips on YouTube. The best is when he obviously hates the whole idea of the bit.

Saw Clerks II tonight. It was good. Goodbye Horses was kind of great.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Saturday, 9 December 2006 06:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Aw hell. Here's the clip itself. I love the "Oooh!"

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Saturday, 9 December 2006 06:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Whaaat?

"Goodbye Horses" was released as a single in 1991 together with the b-side song "White Lines"

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Saturday, 9 December 2006 06:28 (seventeen years ago) link

I think we're having two different conversations.

haha

Coffee is plentiful in these parts. Go get some.

I just made vodka pasta for lunch. I don't think there's anything that smells quite as good as onions and garlic being fried in a little oil.
