Yeah, I’ve been glued to their stream all day. This is absolutely insane.

They’ve turned me into a weather junkie.

Also, my parents live on Siesta Key, so I do have some personal interest. Thankfully they’ve evacuated to Savannah for this one.

These guys will go live around 3p ET today and have a great combined feed of many cameras and other authoritative weather sources. No commercials or corporate sponsors, just a bunch of passionate weather nerds:

Oh, thanks for that tip! I’ll edit it right now.

“Hell in a Handbasket” was the theme song at my most recent birthday party! Yay! You clearly have excellent taste!!!

This artist is a friend of mine, and you should definitely check out this if you liked that:

Disgusting.

I have a Saudi client who was renting a property in London, I think it was £100,000 a week. They booked it out for three months. They brought 60 of their staff from Saudi Arabia all the way over to the property. It was a family of three, and they only went for three days.

Yes, technically my father is a straight Lesbian.

I’m glad you got the reference!

Expose yourself to art.

The “We Were Here” series.

Hello from Denver where it was 70 degrees yesterday, and is supposed to be 68 today. This ain’t right.

The recent Apple TV interface update is TERRIBLE too. They’re taking up more space with less content so I can’t see more than two or three saved videos in my playlist at a time. And it’s a pain in the ass to even get to a playlist now. Really terrible, but I love some of the creators, so I don’t know what else to do.

Even being at 1%, just outside of totality is completely different. Yes, you can still see it, but it’s still a lot of sunlight.

Here’s the answer to your actual question though: https://www.space.com/37878-solar-eclipse-2024-path-of-totality-maps.html

I would be more impressed if they had a Nordic Comedy section!

That’s so odd that it’s a “one way” mess up!

Even though I put the actual address of my home in, it sends me to another address on a different street. There are a lot of one-way streets involved, so it’s not a simple re-route when people end up there. I’ve submitted countless correction requests for years, but of course nothing changes.

See my comments for my take on a Trogdor cocktail. I’ll have it perfected by next year (21 year olds like Trogdor don’t care what it tastes like anyway…)

Trogdor: The Cocktail

DISCLAIMER: This was done on a whim with what I had around the house, but now that I’ve gone down this path I plan on continuing to perfect it throughout the year as well as making other SB themed cocktails (“The Cheat” and “Light Switch Rave” obv!). Personally the flavors suit my palette, but I expect it will be a bit divisive.

Serving: 1

Ingredients

• 2oz blended scotch or whisky (I used Tullamore Dew…it was what I had at hand)
• 1 tsp sweet/spicy sauce or simple syrup (I used Bjorn’s Sweet & Spicy Colorado Honey because I was too lazy to make my own *see note below)
• 1/4 oz smoky single malt for burninated thatched cottage flavor (I used Lagavulin 16 year…yep, it’s what I had around)
• cucumber (for ribbon) for enhanced Trogdor body vibe
• cinnamon stick soaked in grain alcohol (for fire garnish)
• pretzel stick broken in half (eyebrow garnish)

Instructions

• Combine blended scotch & sweet/spicy stuff in a cocktail shaker 3/4 filled w ice
• Shake until chilled
• Strain into rocks glass with one honkin’ big cube and the cucumber ribbon spiraled around to emulate Trogdor’s green body
• Top with float of peaty single malt
• Use dollop of sweet/spicy stickiness to fix to pretzel sticks as an eyebrow-looking garnish
• Stick cinnamon stick in drink and light on fire

If you can’t find an appropriate pre-made sweet/spicy ingredient, message me and I’ll whip up a recipe for something for ya.

Now that I’m on this kick, I want to figure out how to get Strongbad “tiki” glasses made. If any of you have ideas around that, please send 'em my way.

Keep on burninating kickass peeps, and please give me suggestions, advice, jokes, whatever, and let me know how yours comes out if you make one!

P.p.s. If any of you are around Denver for next year’s Trogday, hit me up, I’ll host a birthday cocktail party with my new invention.
