I was just reading through my latest issue of Cook's Illustrated last night, and they had what looked like a good recipe for easy roast chicken. I'll post it after class tonight.
I might stop by Bally's after class (depends on if I'm in the mood to work out at 10:00 pm!), but I will definitely be going there tomorrow after work. I stopped by last night at 5:15, and the parking was insane--I had to stalk people as they were leaving the building. I did manage to snag a treadmill and walked 30 minutes (1.2 miles only, though), but didn't have the energy to swim for another 30 minutes like I was originally planning.
If the price does go up significantly there on Friday like it might, I think I'll just hold off on joining until the end of the year. My membership at the park district pool is good through 12/30, and I can always use the little workout room downstairs here at the office. That way, I don't have to worry about the drive to Bally's through construction zones. I know darn well that they'll be having big discounts on memberships for the New Years Resolution people, so signing up after Christmas should be pretty cheap.
Here's a video done by the local free paper (Seven Days) about the clean up process in Waterbury. It includes Steph's brother and The Alchemist. [link]
Yeah, I can't watch my brother in that without crying. Or see the FUCKING BAR being sawed into pieces and thrown in a dumpster without crying.
He's interviewed about 3 minutes in, and then again at about 7 minutes in.
Also, I am agog at his mustache. NEVER in his life -- that I'm aware of -- has he EVER had a mustache. He has, however, often had a long chin-beard with no mustache, like some Amish hipster.
Steph it was tough to watch, especially seeing your brother get choked up.
TCG was able to see and touch the Stanley Cup at work today. He is now a very happy hubby!
Teppy, is the Alchemist only selling their beer in Vermont or will it be available in other areas?

Right now only Vermont, and for the time being, only at the cannery, although they're going to start distributing through other local VT outlets eventually.
Ok, we'd love to support them if we could by buying the beer, but I don't expect to be able to get to Vermont this year.
We're getting flooded here in PA. The rain seems to have stopped, but they said it's going to start again. One of the main roads in my town runs right next to a creek, and the creek is getting pretty close to street level.
