What Are You Doing Right Now? (202 Viewers)

[icemaη]

I enjoy having dinner with my closest friends. Unfortunately each one is currently in different country.

The older you grow, the more difficult it becomes to stay in touch with your old friends, let alone have dinner... Once in a while you get lucky and that day happened to be today for me...

Loved your Anti Ibracamel thread... One question though, why did it take you so long?

I'm going to campus to turn in my exam and then I'll wait and take my last exam at 4 o'clock. Then I'm officially done and the party in my pants can begin! :excited:


PS: You're all invited. RSVP.

Roasting some coffee at home, because I'm doing my part in this economy to be a cheapass bastard.

 

[Martin]

How do you do that?

A $70 Fresh Roast Plus roaster I've been using for years. Small batch, basically a glorified popcorn popper:

That's good, keep it going.

Also, make sure you borrow all the money you can and not repay it.

Already started saving for economic crisis?

If the doomsayers who predicted this mess are correct once again, the people with the most canned foods and ammo will come out on top.

I'll be traveling around with Burke armed to infiltrate Beirut, hunting down food and the people who orchestrated this mess.

What, are you nuts? Why not churn my own butter while I'm at it.

That's good, keep it going.

You've got it. Stocking up on whiskey and cigarettes too, while I'm at it.

I've been roasting my own for years, basically for freshness given how measured I use the stuff. But I was also part inspired by a pretty funny article in this week's New Yorker about life in today's financial Armageddon:

http://www.newyorker.com/humor/2008/12/15/081215sh_shouts_doyle

One of my favorite lines from it:

that’s when the bankers and the C.E.O.s all disappeared into that underground paradise they’ve been building since the eighties; that’s when women’s skin started falling off; that’s when the Treasury Department, in a last-ditch effort to solve the financial crisis, certified all Monopoly and other board-game moneys; that’s when the rivers ran red, and gelatinous, with what many thought was strawberry Jell-O but really, really was not

(And yes, my dear governor has actually used the "Armageddon" word this week to describe the state's budget situation: http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_11186822?source=most_emailed ).

Don't know...it does look awful but they are talking about it like it's the end of the world so I guess I still don't think it's that big of a deal.I still think "oh it's not going to happen here".

But I heard Hungary is already dead financially.They had some crazy sales like 90% off and food is really expensive.Many people got fired and so on.

Creepy.

That's good, keep it going.

How will that work?

 

[Dostoevsky]

Gotta go.
