The Maryland Cycling Classic was fantastic! Great event and tough racing conditions. Loved the spectator improvements. Some big names on the DNF list!

YouTube video by Forbes Breaking News 'This Is A Very Hard Physics Problem': Kelly Grills Hegseth On Reliability Of Golden Dome Project

Interesting testimony from Secretary of Defense after questioning by Senator Kelly.

I don’t want to focus on Golden Dome. The outcome of that program is far from clear & controversial. But I want to talk about DoD testing & what it all means. A thread…

Happy Easter, leg of lamb. 3 hours at 210-220 + sear

Lol same, yesterday I also drove 2 hours to a different base for the same reason. And then the HVAC wasnt working (like so many DoD facilities), so I got to sweat it out in a windowless box for 3 hours

Years of so much caution. Struggling to use barely functioning high side systems, where the only feature seems to be daily degraded warnings. Calls that you can only hear every other word over static. Awkwardly avoiding acknowledgement of people. All this shit

I've been looking at video feeders as a gift. Happy with the onlyfly?

This place needs Meathead! Just did this fat leg of lamb following his book recipe, shown doing the final sear to 130F. 2 hr at 250 on the smoker. I love cooking lamb but find this is one of the more challenging smoker cooks because legs vary so much in shape and resulting cook profile.

DOD/DIB has plenty of SCIFs that make your conference room look like a palace

Wet brine it to speed the thaw

Total incompetence top to bottom at FMM. Understaffed and under experienced, they are just way out of their league on this. Can another yard rescue the program? Going to be tough as FMM continues to struggle with the design

Smoker ran lower than I wanted, more in the 280-290 range. Would have crisped up more at 325. Otherwise it turned out great. Most importantly the salt content is dialed in. Ready for real Turkey Day

Practice turkey day. Brine 24 hours, air dry 24 hours, smoke at 325 for 3 hours. On at 0700 and should be ready for lunch!

Simple paprika, garlic, brown sugar, lemon zest rub.

This place took a big step back when Jo arrived

Sports coverage. It is a massive hole here. Hopefully with time people step in to fill that gap

For the cost of goods record, 3/4" sanded birch plywood was $80 a sheet at Home Depot, November 2024.

Did this custom closet build over two weekends. Just me and the table saw, which turned out to be a great election distraction when you are working 16 hours days. About $3k in materials, including the 5 dressers (not custom). Amateur carpentry.
