Drool. I've been eating that same loaf every Xmas season for decades. No one in my family likes it except me, so I get it all to myself. Since I've been told that I'm one of the only 3 people in North America who actually likes the stuff, you must be one of the other two

That makes me the third.

All this just goes to show that I'm probably nutty as a...

Yeah ... that's probably not going to improve its performance.

From my recent Florida trip, a visit to the Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine. Built by the Spanish 1672-1695, handed over to the British in 1763, back to the Spanish in 1793, and finally to the US in 1821.

Are the surroundings funky enough for you at this backwater seafood restaurant? With the best spicy seafood soup (Thai Bouillabaisse) I have seen these days

 

[jtbell]

The menu just says "seafood." Does that mean you get whatever they happen to catch that day?

 

[morrobay]

Yes , seafood on menu denotes any combination of shell fish , squid, shrimp. Other parts of menu are for specific dishes for those as well as fish.

Ultra lazy audio studio:

I'm currently trying using a mini PC (this one) with a portable monitor (this one) to run audio production software... in the bed . It seems to work, but I don't know how well it will handle more demanding projects though... we'll see... the mini PC is so small I can put it behind the monitor or bed if I would want to.

It's really crazy... I remember when I was younger I had to either borrow a four track recorder (often the famous Tascam Portastudio 244) or go to the rehearsal studio, and I/we would be limited to recording on four tracks. If we wanted eight tracks, we would have to rent a bigger recorder and if we wanted even more we needed to go to a studio.

Now I can do similar things... in my bed.
