- lilho on jason’s “Hallo. Hej. Hello Dere” i actually don't like leaving the house either... so you aren't alone there. i do however like being alone... probably too much. i get annoyed easily.
- libertad on jason’s “Hallo. Hej. Hello Dere” Let us know what normal feels like! Mike and I can have you over for dinner to fatten you up. We are just around the corner. Shoot me a message if you are up for it.
- metalpeter on jason’s “Hallo. Hej. Hello Dere” Here is what I think Happens but again not sure.... Most people go out to meet others or not feel single... So then they also go out since they are dating... But once "Married" or the same type of thing it is better to stay in... In a way …
- paul on jason’s “Hallo. Hej. Hello Dere” I love the fig n procuitto pizza at Vera.
- paul on jason’s “Updates” Glad to hear you are doing good. Go for the Galaxy s2, its awesome.
- metalpeter on jason’s “Stay gold, Ponyboy...Stay gold.” Wish I had something wise to say... I have heard the outsiders is a great book not sure if it and the movie again never saw that are connected....
- libertad on jason’s “Stay gold, Ponyboy...Stay gold.” I'm glad that you can remember some pearl of wisdom during a very low period like that. I guess we never know how our words can affect someone if not now, but at some time down the road.
- mrmike on jason’s “Stay gold, Ponyboy...Stay gold.” I like Lee's thought and your conclusion. You're doing fine.
- heidi on jason’s “Stay gold, Ponyboy...Stay gold.” Beautifully written, Jason. Much love to you. It is a good book.
- leetee on jason’s “Stay gold, Ponyboy...Stay gold.” You are fine as is.... you always were. It's ok to not be ok all the time.
- chico on jason’s “Life Doesn't Go In A Straight Line” It's beyond my comprehension and I'm not going to pretend to know what to say, or that anything I say will bring you comfort, so I'll echo uncut: strength to you.
- uncutsaniflush on jason’s “Life Doesn't Go In A Straight Line” Strength to you, Jason.
- matthew on jason’s “Life Doesn't Go In A Straight Line” I am sorry for your loss, e:jason. Best wishes.
- paul on jason’s “Life Doesn't Go In A Straight Line” I wish you the best.
- tinypliny on jason’s “Life Doesn't Go In A Straight Line” e:Jason, e:Joshua leaves a part of him with all of us and I am sure that all of us were enriched in varied ways because of it. I wish you all the very best and am sending the warmest of thoughts and prayers in your direction.
- metalpeter on jason’s “Time For A Trim” There is some place (never been only heard the ads) called Lady Jane's that is supposed to be like for guys only and they guy stuff there (foze Ball I think) and hair cuts are like $10, there might be some catch like with a wash or somethi…
- tinypliny on jason’s “Time For A Trim” How about e:libertad's grant-street bloke or the main-place-mall frenchman?
- libertad on jason’s “Went to the Salon” I just got another haircut from Nick on Grant. I would say he has given me the best haircut I have ever gotten. I'm really hoping people will go to him as he doesn't seem to be getting enough business and really seems to need/deserve it. I…
- jbeatty on jason’s “Went to the Salon” Wow! I can't believe that many people bought a Flowbee!
- janelle on jason’s “Went to the Salon” I'll buzz it for $5.00 I do it for Drew.
- tinypliny on jason’s “Went to the Salon” Oh and since people are recommending non-judgmental salons, let me throw out two more. Roberto at SuperCuts at Delaware is very friendly and very professional. The Main Street Mall barber place is also really good. The owner is one of thos…
- tinypliny on jason’s “Went to the Salon” When you have 50 people and their households all getting an RSI typing out praise for the flowbee at Amazon ( http://www.amazon.com/FLOWBEE-Flowbee-Haircutting-System/product-reviews/B00020F9TK/ref=cm_cr_pr_recent?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&…
- jbeatty on jason’s “Went to the Salon” I'm pretty sure the Flowbee was never all the rage. I go to the salon next to SeaBar, only because I like the family that owns it. It's a very relaxed kind of place, plus I can get lunch afterward.
- tinypliny on jason’s “Went to the Salon” I know *exactly* the judging atmosphere you are talking about. It's loathsome. Maybe you should consider the flowbee. Apparently, it's all the rage.
- mrmike on jason’s “Went to the Salon” I go to Chick's barber shop on Hertel, guy friendly
- libertad on jason’s “Went to the Salon” I LOVE my new barber on Grant. His name is Nick. Directly accross from the Cuchifrito Hut. Very good cut and super cheap. He charges me $12 and I tip him $5. I used to go to another place but I always felt I needed to go back after just tw…
- libertad on jason’s “You Haven't Lived Until...” I just went swimming with my grandmother in the Susquahanna river in PA. She is going to be 80 this Thanksgiving. That is living! My grandfather is 85 and still fishing and doing his thing. I think they might even be on Facebook! Maybe Fac…
- paul on jason’s “You Haven't Lived Until...” Sounds like a good time. I am all about outside. I just wish the summer was one month longer.
- metalpeter on jason’s “Throwing Puppies In A River???” I haven't seen the video and don't know what happens to them. Dogs can swim but I don't know if they are taught it or if it is instinct. What I can tell you is that getting rid of unwanted puppies or Kittens are pretty common not sure abou…

- jason on paul’s “Forever isn't always forever” Sorry to hear about it, P&T.
- jason on heidi’s “Jalapeno?” You can get some tomatillos, onion, lime, s & p, and make some salsa verde. Or put it into some veggie chili. Or dry a bunch.
- jason on lilho’s “still got it” I just logged in to say God. Damn. Sarah. Yikes. By the way - if you feel like yelling, screaming, crying, or whatever....it is a necessary part of the healing process. Got to purge the emotional toxins from your system. Your story reminde…
- jason on enknot’s “How to Completely Lose a Life Partner” This whole thing blows my mind. I have a stubborn belief that unless something REALLY fucked happens between two people that things can be mended. They almost always can be mended. With time. And patience. And humility. I hope that is the …
- jason on ladycroft’s “Dear Joshua” It's been hard. I went into the bottle for a good two months, staying out late most nights. On top of this was the stress of a failing relationship (I got betrayed...AGAIN) and all of this has taken its toll on me. What I've wanted to do i…
- jason on tinypliny’s “Chef's opinions on Cast Iron Pans” Wow. That's an awfully ballsy thing to say. Instead of saving money and carefully choosing cookware based upon quality and durability, I must be a blind sheep because Tiny says so. Nobody is preventing you from buying a knock off and enjoy…
- jason on tinypliny’s “Chef's opinions on Cast Iron Pans” I have an enameled cast iron skillet, and an enameled cast iron dutch oven. I use the skillet primarily for searing meat or making the odd frittata, and the dutch oven for stews/soups/one pot meals.
- jason on vincent’s “For Real Stuff that Matters” Of course, when I took a sip of the beer I spit it out and was like, "Dad this is some commersh garbage. Why don't people have standards?"
- jason on vincent’s “For Real Stuff that Matters” Yeah, Pitt is awesome. That is where Josh and I were served our very first beer, actually, in a parking lot before a Pirates game when we were 10 or 11. Some Pennsyltuckian gave us a MGD. "Where did you get that??" my father asked. "Some g…
- jason on leetee’s “Kharma” The good news is, Lee, you are not trapped. Thankful for a job, yes but not grateful for the poor treatment. It's okay to feel that way. Lib offers a great suggestion to keep an eye out for opportunities you might be interested in. You are…
- jason on jbeatty’s “Fuck You Buffalo Rising!” Oh yeah, and about Buffalo Chow - they should stick to what they "know"......reviewing food......it annoys the hell out of me when non-technical people give other non-technical people bad advice about technical issues.
- jason on enknot’s “My first kiss...” It is an understatement to note that your chronicling of this event (hairy lip, strong arms) turned my mood from "terminally pissed off" to something more resembling normal. Thanks, man. Feel kinda like I owe you one.
- jason on jbeatty’s “Paella” This entry is right in my wheelhouse. I also love PBS on Saturdays although I haven't seen Avec Eric yet. Would love to check out his restaurant one day. Also agree that Paella is most fun outdoors, with friends. Lastly, I don't get saffro…
- jason on jbeatty’s “Fuck You Buffalo Rising!” Yeah, that blows. Notice how she went and edited her own blog explaining her shilling....ERRR....."cognitive dissonance". I like Josh's reviews far better. The Mighty Taco one was legendary.
- jason on tinypliny’s “Ballet” Have you ever seen a ballet performance? I went to see the Nutcracker at Shea's in December and it was fantastic. Everyone looks nice, they have champagne cocktails during intermission, the music and dancing is amazing. Shea's is also a wo…
- jason on paul’s “Reliving my parents drama” Lately I've been cleaning house. Cleaning out Josh's room. It is unbelievable how much shit people accumulate, myself included. Definitely feeling the "I have too much stuff" anxiety at my Elmwood perch. Why do I have 4 phone books? I am g…
- jason on paul’s “Dolci on Grant” I miss Dolci on Elmwood. I'd wave to the pizza maker every morning when walking to my car. He'd have his cigarette and black coffee. I'd come home and wave to another employee tending to people. There stuff was great and they treated their…
- jason on paul’s “Halibut Cheeks” I was jealous when I saw you bought these before. Halibut cheek is supposed to be some of the best stuff out of the sea. Where did you buy it again?
- jason on heidi’s “February beer club” I can answer that, Peter. It's hard cider, not beer. Actually it's a very good hard cider, although I admit I don't try a bunch of them myself. James - If you like sours, try Ithaca's Brute or Ithaca's LeBleu. I would say Brute is on the "…
- jason on heidi’s “February beer club” Interesting, you tried the Schaerbeekse Kriek. Out of the three Lambics, that's probably the one that is going to be the most traditional representation of the style out of the three. It also uses the Morello cherries grown around Brussels…
- jason on heidi’s “in class today...” Ok, sorry for the MJ rant. I'll just drop it as it isn't pertinent to your post. I'm honestly sorry for that, even if I really do hate them. Appeal to authority is always a logical fallacy, regardless of whether it is Glenn Beck, Noam Chom…
- jason on heidi’s “Excellent summary video” That area of PA is indeed beautiful.
- jason on heidi’s “in class today...” A Tea Partier wrote an analysis of Agenda 21, and came up with some reasons they find it objectionable. I talk with Tea Party types every day, unlike their critics, and this is the first time I've even heard of this so called issue. The pa…
- jason on heidi’s “in class today...” I would take anything Mother Jones says about Tea Party members with giant scoops full of salt.
- jason on jbeatty’s “Clint McCance is a douchebag!” I don't get mad at these people, even though it's easy to be mad. I am satisfied that people like that are going to be museum relics in our lifetime. We are going to bring our kids to a museum, point to this asshole and say "Can you believ…
- jason on jbeatty’s “Juan” Juan Williams got fired for two reasons: First, and I think foremost, it was because he consistently went on Fox News Channel. This was a source of annoyance for his bosses. Secondly, it was because he was in a sanitized, politically corre…
- jason on tinypliny’s “Did you know? (Facts against smoking.)” Okay Tiny, so don't smoke.
- jason on paul’s “Driveway” Time to break out the spike strip.
- jason on heidi’s “Pride Center Rally Against Palladino's comments” A friend of mine has been pushing hard for Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate. He is/was/has been a progressive political activist for some time. He's a real deal hard core lefty. There is also the Libertarian Party candidate Warren …
- jason on heidi’s “Pride Center Rally Against Palladino's comments” Blaming him for possible future anti-gay violence is a bridge too far for me, after all he isn't in every family's home telling parents what to teach their kids. Nevertheless, his comments are intolerable to me too, as someone who supports…
