Pssst! Got a sec to chat? We are utterly thrilled when readers want to hang out and talk – whether it's amongst themselves or in response to pieces we've posted. We want Eatocracy to be a cozy, spirited online home for those who find their way here.

Gentlemen and Lady!
START YOUR ENGINES!!!!
It's the Daytona 500 baby! Racing season is finally here. any fans out there?
Just glad Paul didn't win. Met half their family here, complete a-holes.
In purgatory!
I know I'm late to the party today, but does anyone have a foolproof Risotto recipe? I will be attempting risotto once again tonight...with asparagus and roasted chicken with Hawaiian coffee and sea salt rub...
Just hit an old Jewish deli for lunch as I had a huge craving for a Reuben. Hit the pickle bar a little too heavy and now I've got the stomach gurgles – -totally worth it though. So good. So good!
All I read was that you hit and old Jew and his pickle and now your tummy hurts. o.O
....LIKE......
You mean there is something out there called a "Pickle Bar???"
As long as it is not a "pickle surprise" bar...
Bu-bu-but I relish a wide variety of pickles. ~_~
Just discovered Volbeat. Jdizzle has a new favorite band. Can't get enough. Guy sounds like a cross between Sully Erna and Elvis
GREAT band! Been listening to them for almost a year now. From Copenhagen of all places.
I think I read somewhere they were in Seattle recently
They were. I missed 'em, dammit.
Just heard on the radio they will be in LaCrosse on April 11. That's about an hour south of me. HHHhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm!!!!!
$35!

Never heard of 'em. ^_^

Fave song of theirs.
Tickets are bought, Broseph. It's on.
That is a good one. Metal has been missing for a while.
HA! I predict Alee's humidity level south of her hemisphere will be increasing when she hears/see this group.
well said! ~_~
Good call. ~_~ Love his voice. Their music doesn't suck either. ~_~ Still counting all the a_holes in the room...
Excellent.
Well it wasn't a foot of snow like they said, maybe 3-4 inches, but it was the heavy kind with lots of wind. Jeep was encased in a snow shell this morning. I let it warm up for a while to soften it up, otherwise I would have needed a jackhammer to clear the snow off.
Official count is 7.4 inches. AleeD likes that number better.
Good afternoon. Its a warm and sunny 47 here, doesn't sound like much to those of you in warm Florida or California, but its a veritable heat wave here!!! I was just out killing icicles and trying to chip ice from my deck steps. No ice melt anywhere around here, all sold out.
Have a happy Thursday!!
So

W T F ? Must be an inside joke. Otherwise, I have no idea why you posted that.
Read down the first letter of each word silly. You're spending way to much time in the DDD video booths, get out and get some fresh air and work that brain.

I know, I did. Guess I'm not in a humorous kind of mood. Anyway...
Me thinks Alee was just teasing the modbots since they seems tweaked to 11 lately.
Oh, okay got it.
50 lashes with a moist, slightly used bustiere for the Biddle! I know you are one of the few here who would consider that a reward. ~_~
Wassup Jerv-i-licious? Why no humor? Bad day, week or month? Talk to me Man. You may find me a pretty good listener. You just have to look past the bullwh!p as it sails past your ... parts. ~_~
Happy S.H.I.T. day everyone! I hope everybody's having a good week. If we get a little nicer weather this weekend, I'm gonna fire up the smoker and do some chicken. Smoke on!
What time is dinner? Oh, never mind. Supposed to be getting a foot of snow today. This winter sucks. If it isn't -400 degrees it's friggin snowing.
I fear my BBQ may be in need of a lot of TLC this spring as it was looking a little worse for the wear when I closed it up for winter. Likely a nest of squirrels have been having orgies in it at this point with the cold weather, its had no use.

Really modbots. REALLY?!??!?!?!
LOL
Sounds as though it definitely had some use. Just not by you...
Over the years, the BBQ has seen more use than a bucket of ping pong balls in Bangkok
You managed to use the words balls & Bangkok in the same sentence without getting moderated. I am so impressed. You get an extra 10 minutes of bootlicking next time you're in the dungeon. Good boy ...
Ha! Yes.
Where do you find big enough papers?
Remember the Cheech and Chong album "Big Bambu"?
Good afternoon! Things are a bit crazy with work this week, trying to get things wrapped up before next week's time out.
On some nice news, it smells wonderful in here. I'm slow roasting some beef country style ribs I found in the store this weekend, beef ribs are unusual around here, country style ribs are typically pork. Found a recipe, put them in at noon, and they've been cooking away since. Yummy.
And here is some appetizing news to start everyone's day...

Good morning all, and Happy Wednesday. How is everyone doing today?
Greetings and salutations mi klatschkins! I brought in some Kona coffee chocolate covered macadamia nutz for your noshing pleasure! Between the coffee and chocolate, should give you a nice afternoon boost!
Well, I met with a realtor yesterday and decided to finally sell my house, it's just too big to keep up and the stairs are a becoming a challenge for me. Dreading actually moving though, yuck, so much stuff to do and have to pack/sort through 14 years of accumulating stuff, especially kitchen gadgets! I'll keep those though... :)
I'm in moderation queue, but the guy saying he is going to bang someone went through?? Methinks our bodbotz have their priorities twisted...
Agreed. He posted similiar comments on other Eatocracy threads equally lacking in any intelligence. Go figure.
BTW, good to see you and everyone else after all this crazy snow.
It's always good to be seen and good to 'see' you too....and what is this snow that you speak of? Oh, that's right I'm in So Cal in the 70's and 80's..
Oh man...there's nothing I hate more than moving! I hope all goes well and you some cool news digs.
Oh, pass the nutz:)
*find* some cool new digs.
Thanks and agree with the moving...I swore this would be my last move, but I'm ready for the change. I found a cool place not far from where I am now and will be able to pay cash for it with the equity in the current house, so NO MORTGAGE! It's a short term (10 years) move, then I hope to retire up to WA. :))
We'll welcome you!
I'm gonna bang that big chick Lauren tonight. . .been waiting all week, its gonna be good.
go back to the Marquee blog. You are not wanted here.

Apparently, WordPress only allows ransom posts of mine to actually appear. Very frustrating. This is why you don't see me post for days at a time lately. Site won't let me. Doesn't matter the computer or browser.
Testies, one. Two. Three?
Maybe don't use wordpress? I don't, as my work computer has pretty limited internet access.
Good Tootsday afternoon everyone, from a WARM and toasty "Lil Mexico aka Laredo,Tx. So my Qualcom computer on the truck crapped out and I'm stuck here till tomorrow. At least it's Not snowing……Yea I said it. HA!! It's movie day in the truck so everyone stay warm….Springs around the corner…..I think. :))
Pretty sure that doughnut is the last thing a toddler should be eating. And we wonder we obesity is an issue in America. Yup I said it, but I'm not a high strung parent.
Good morning! Surprise – its snowing here again! Will this ever stop?
How was everyone's weekend?
Good morning! No kidding, winter needs to die already! I can't see over the piles of snow to pull out of my driveway. Then trying to see around them at the end of my street is even worse. Over 100 inches of snow here is enough. Looking into my chrystal ball (lol), I'm seeing many floods if we don't have a slow thaw. Stay warm, Mary Shannon!
Thanks, and same to you!! I was driving around a lot yesterday doing errands and such, and wound up very annoyed at the inability to see at intersections and corners. Its a pain and very dangerous, especially around where I live because a lot of roads are only 1 lane in each direction, so oncoming traffic has nowhere to go to avoid you if you're sticking out.
Oh my, one lane...very scary! We have mostly 2 around town, but, they have gotten very narrow. We're running out of places to throw snow. Someone needs to kick that groundhog in PA. Lol!
I feel the same way about the never ending rain here. Oh wait......it's Washington..........
"Oh wait"...😄...made me laugh!
My husband and I had dozed off last night and I had to get out of bed to set up this morning's post. He said, "I know the Klatsch needs you, but can't it wait?"
No! I Klatsched on!
Thank you, for this and every other day you put us up (or put up with us). It's alot of fun playing here and keeping in touch with everyone. However, for future reference, romance & "quality time" trump posting any day of the week. ~_~
Hee! I did go back up to bed afterward.
GOOD! First things first (or right away....)
It's Cadbury Egg season!
However, it looks like Junior is noshing a chocolate-covered donut – not an egg. ;)
Then they are missing out!
Wish I could post a picture of one and make everyone drool.....
Now that looks like an awesome breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. Or 9:30pm munchies.
I take it you kick back & relax around 9ish? ;) lol
First poster on a Monday at 11:40 am? WAKE UP, EVERYONE!
USA! USA! USA!
