agreed, and it was quite yummy. Especially since I also made bacon bowls. 8)

Girl I know is trying to get me to be Vegan. I asked her if I could still have Mac-n-cheese. She said: If the cheese isn't made from milk. So how is it cheese if it's not made from milk?

She should have realized I wouldn't convert when I met her for dinner at a vegan restaurant wearing a down coat and leather boots. :happydevil:

In my experience vegans can become as annoying as the super religious people who knock on your door every Sunday to try to get you to go to church with them. But there are also vegans who just try to convert people for the hell of it.

I am hoping for your sake that this girl is just being friendly.

I have that feeling where I wish to reach through the screen and smack someone upside the head with a mack truck. No one here. It's on a Transformers message board. I'd get into it but it's just... geeky.

I didn't do that but I did tell the waiter that if the Caesar dressing didn't have anchovies in it then technically they couldn't call it Caesar dressing.

Put a new front door in today. Well, I helped put a new front door in today. Pretty damned tricky, but it's in.

Putting a door in with the old frame still In place is hard. That is of course if the frame isn't square anymore.

We took the old frame out, then slid the new one in. Admittedly it took quite a bit of work, but it's in now.

Installing new door frames especially your first one is usually pain in the ass. After awhile they aren't that bad. Never did a front door though.

Front doors are especially tricky as they usually have several points that they connect to the house with.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Well, the old door frame... actually wasn't attacked to the house. It was just... wedged in.
