Cooked a meal fit for a king tonight for dinner - came to Long Island with Lindsay to get Nathan from my parents house, and wound up cooking some turkey burgers infused with lime zest, cheddar cheese, and cilantro. Also whipped up some chicken breast marinated in lime juice/lemon juice/soy sauce/garlic/oregano/chili powder/rosemary - pretty damn good. Grilled some corn on the cob inside the husk, made a little horseradish/lime topping sauce as a condiment - I mean what the hell!?! Then we walked to Cold Stone and got some ice cream. Good day of food.
BP's top kill tactic got slayed by the busted oil well - the mud pumping idea seemed to suck. The beaches in the Gulf of Mexico will ultimately suffer, if they haven't already. It's a damn shame, because those beaches are some of the nicest in the country. Destin in particular, those beaches are awesome - white sand, looks like sugar. Great work BP, you better get your shit together and get this mess stopped.
Yankees (read: Joba) blew a 10-5 lead after 6 innings against the Indians today. Joba sucks. Plain and simple. After several very up and down seasons in the big leagues, he still has yet to nail down a role. I know it is probably frustrating for him, but how do the fans feel? We pay our money to go see this garbage can throw baseball towards the plate, hoping he has a good outing. Figure out a role for this guy already, otherwise just send him and Oliver Perez out of town and get someone useful.
Time for a second dessert.
