Yeah. This is bad. It will take a while but I am hoping we can come back from it. Sucks pretty hard right now though for everyone involved (except the co-worker).

If you search "lizard people" it gets weird quick. 2015 Vox wrote about it being the greatest political conspiracy theory ever, 2012 The Atlantic reported that 12M American believe that the government is run by "them", there are lists of celebrities that are "definitely" lizard people, and that does not even require paging down.

The Bourbon Rickey was the original Rickey before later giving way to the Gin Rickey in popularity. First created in 1883 at Shoomaker’s, a now defunct D.C. bar, the simple mix of bourbon, club soda and lime was a collaboration between bartender George Williamson and Colonel Joe Rickey, when Williamson added half a lime to Rickey’s usual order of bourbon, ice and sparkling mineral water. The resulting cocktail was a hit, and people started ordering the Joe Rickey, which later turned into the Bourbon Rickey or Gin Rickey depending on the drinker’s preferred spirit. While some would be honored to be credited as the inventor of a cocktail, Colonel Rickey was not. He was saddened that his political achievements were overshadowed by the Rickey and took solace in the hopes that one day his drink would fall out of fashion. It did not.

Servings: 1

Ingredients
• 2 oz (59.15 mL) bourbon
• 4 oz (118.29 mL) club soda
• 1 oz (29.57 mL) lime juice
• 1 wedge lime

Preparation

Fill a tall glass with ice. Add lime juice and bourbon. Top with club soda and stir. Garnish with a lime wedge.

Don't know who "Andy" is, but his iPhone just logged into my Hulu account. :evil: :evil: :evil:

EDIT: Apparently a lot of people have had "Andy's iPhone" log into their Hulu account. I'm sure that's not good. I should just cancel Hulu anyway. It sucks compared to Netflix and Prime, and I rarely use it.

The Lizards would be saved if they could be enlightened by the writings of the Helping Friendly Book.

Ina Garten's blueberry bran muffins are fantastic if you're looking for something along those lines. Very easy, can put it together in about 10 minutes and it takes 25 to bake.

The key is to not put little slices or fork holes in them and then let the microwave form the dog into a flower like garnish!

There are a lot of good make ahead tapas.

I did tasting spoons one time ( little bites served on a spoon) that were easy

Thing is that people are pigs, so when the food is gone you need to send them over to Popeye's since Chik-Fil-A is closed Sundays.
