Cooking question: caramelizing onions
I do onions for 30 minutes on medium. After melting the butter, the first 10 minutes is just the onions. Stir once or twice to keep things even. Next 10 minutes with Salt, a shitload of Black Pepper, and a shot of Red Wine Vinegar. Stir once or twice to keep things even. Next 10 minutes with Honey added to make it gooey and help carmelize. Stir 2 or 3 times to keep from burning until desired color. They turn out amazing every time.

Live Musical Performance Reviews
Friday night in Tyler: 100 minute set from Robert Cray, who came out swinging with a particularly groovy version of Phone Booth and never let up. He tiptoed nicely through his 40 year spanning discography, covering many moods and styles, constantly improvising solos and putting on an impressive Blues guitar clinic. Still a good looking, charming, and energetic dude, entertaining as hell and still sounds exactly the same vocally as he ever did. I’m guessing the guy either has good genes or really takes care of himself. Left us waltzing out the door with the haunting strains of Time Takes Two in our heads. Sheer perfection...

That’s just fucking sad, man. Clearly, she cares only so much.

Whatever it is, sounds like your wife is training for it.

Bourbon
Had some for the first time tonight. Heat and char upfront, but mellows into a nice caramel woodiness in the finish. Enjoyed it very much over the past two years.

Yeah, but EVERY Christmas album has one abomination that leaves you scratching your head. Part of the fun.

I’m kinda digging it. It’s fitting in well with my holiday music stash.

Buying a House
Will try to keep this short. House-hunting. Planning long-term, but who the hell knows anymore...? Found a great house that suits all my needs. Updated, well-cared for, on 3 acres...just perfect. Two lots down is a salvage yard. Looks like shit. Rest of the street is hit-or-miss in regards to size, quality, upkeep, etc. Just your average rural road a few miles outside of the nearest town. After a few cursory internet searches, I discover terms such as “external obsolescence”. Regardless of the vocabulary, should I just forget this and run? Will it just bite me in the ass when/if I ever have to sell?

You mean...the potential for talk about plump breast meat in Tyler doesn’t entice you to stay? Anyway...back to the BBQ...

Let HER pull the fuckin’ thing if she wanted it so badly. Getting stuff that she wants under the guise of providing stuff for you...rage-inducing.

Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
There are a few songs where it is obvious that the generic rock-type filler music remains. 90% was restored. Some of it just couldn’t be reclaimed. I can only think of once or twice that it was noticeable enough to be distracting. Otherwise, it’s as good as it will ever be, I guess. And a very welcome improvement.

Yep. Look up “WKRP - The Complete Series” on Amazon (or wherever). Was released in 2014, I believe. Wife gave it to me 2 Christmases ago. Pure Gold, Daddy-O!

They have since released the entire show (all seasons) with original music intact. Soooo much better.
