Bon apetit.


An arm and a leg seems like the only ingredients you didn't include!!!

Looks good though.

I think I have around 6k imagery hours in 104 months total deployment time over a 13.5yr span. Don't do a lot of flying now as I'm a lead and mostly run sites. This is what the system looks like, my parents were lucky enough to see the system when I was in Puerto Rico and they were visiting. Probably my favorite pic of my parents.

Technically speaking it's a UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and part of a UAS(Unmanned Aerial System), its not completely automated.... but yes essentially a drone.

Ha lemme check... yeah it's closed.

Speaking of automated electronics... my Roomba didn't make it to the charging area before it died, I can start and stop the cycle via my app. I had to send my buddy to the house to return the Roomba to the dock and he said:

"He looked all pitiful and sad with his slowly dimming red light asking for help."

Inspired by Luis... My cooking talents extend to - ALL breakfast items, Prime rib... and that's about it. Got a couple of grill specials but so does everyone with a pair of *****. Decided it was time to expand my horizons...

Did you guys know you can down like 10 bud lights while you cook a rack of baby back ribs ? Really ! I did it a week ago, and they came out awesome. Took the day off today and decided to see if it was a fluke... Nope - recipe, 10 bud lights for the chef, a baby back rack of ribs... some rub, some bbq sauce at the end, a tire temp thermometer repurposed to a grill thermometer and boom - delicious baby back ribs... You dudes should try it.

saw your video, bad as??. Well done. I just made a lasagna, drank some bourbon and beer. I have two porsche events this weekend. Driving the silver surfer today, the black knight tomorrow,The Erza Brooks 99 proof is pretty tasteful, not a bad sipping bourbon. I’ll smoke a brisket next weekend.

These two are brothers. I consider them like my kids. Each of them have good qualities and bad ones. When you have kids is hard to really say you love one more than the other. That’s exactly how I feel about them,

Made a lasagna with two pounds of Italian sausage. I love to let the lasagna sit in the refrigerator for a day or two so that the pasta soaks the flavor. 45 minute bake, garlic bread and salad , awesome, add an Italian wine and you’ll have a feast.

Default Cars and biers at Einers garage in Houston

Had a great day driving the 99, couldn’t push it much heavy traffic, still few stints as high as 120. Einers was great, huge crowd, I had to park outside. Big kolaches Miller lite, F1 qualifying on the big screen great day. After I came back home I took my wife and son to eat. Look at the size of the chicken fried steak. The millennium is for sale $55k, super low mileage I believe less than 26k miles, a lot of recent work, service,
dry iced Engine and transmission clean.


The gt3 as always together, skittles row.

Miller lite is always great with these huge kolaches.

F1 qualifying, I’m pulling for Verstapen. Porsche is buying Red Bull racing.

The exterior and interior of this low mileage millennium is to die for. Pm if you are interested,


Every time I go to these events I see more gt3s than anything else.


This is my cars baby, well done. A lot more expensive.!


Everything is bigger in Texas.

Trump burger. Got to organize a drive to Belleville Texas to go eat a $14 one pound angus burger with 4 slices of cheese, could be a great road trip.

That's a lot of really nice classic BMWs! I have personally never been much of a Beamer fan, but its impossible to deny that the E30 is one nice looking car. I've always had a soft spot E24s. If I ever find a good one it will be hard for me to pass up.

Is the Black M5 yours? It looks fantastic!

Hope you feel better soon. I got it right around the new years. It isn't fun. But at 8 days you are hopefully nearing the end.
