The Web

Ever-changing, holistic chaos by nature. Does not fit into one model or one label. As soon as one process is establish, the environment morphs. Because after all, it is the masses that shape it, influence it, dictate its trends. No one template fits the model.
In ‘07-08 social websites were the rage, and social media advertising became what was in vogue.

But hold on:

is snowing again!!

so It snowed saturday, and sunday and again today!!
so I went to the market got me some fresh pork chops, and went home to see what new recipe I can try to make...
so here is what I came up with... Gray Goose Chops!!

ingredients:
quarter chops, clean and washed in lime juice
diced scallions,
minced parsley
1/4 red onion sliced into thin slices
1/2 diced red sweet pepper
1/4 green jalapeno pepper diced
black pepper, cumin, red pepper, oregano, thyme seasoning to taste.
1/4 gray goose vodka (chilled)

use the gray goose, lime juice and seasoning to create a marinate, pour it over the chops,
marinate the whole thing for a 3-4 hours. throw it on the grill.
(yes I know is winter, dammit!!) - I miss summer - but hey, I will use the winter
months to come up with more experi-recipes...

Craigslist: Only True Millionaires Need Apply

We need more "optiomist" men like Michael Gray if we want to make it through these tough economic times. Since we know that most of the millionaires he mentioned spend a lot of time trolling Craigslist for investment opportunities, I really hope some of them contact him. Especially "Yahoo owners."
