Yup still at it, this finishes the 2nd year of Project Get Skinny, and while I have not lost much more weight this year, I feel much more healthy.

I eat apox 20% animal (meat/dairy) this year and in 09 I am moving toward 10%, I will be Vegan at home, and only eat animal when out, so apox 10 meals a month, 10 out of 80 meals (and not every one will be 100% meat, but some will be:>)
no pepsi, coke.
i like the way this recipe site can be browsed or searched, by level of difficulty, number of ingredients, occasion, etc.

Was lucky to score a holiday dinner at Corton last night. Overall I thought it was very good. Love the room. Wine list is insane of course (with a huge reserve list where the bottles need to be ordered 24 hours in advance so they can be brought from an off site cellar,) but also includes some decent sub $40 bottles. For instance we started with a Aubuisières Vouvray Sec ‘Cuvée de Silex,’ Loire 2007 which was great and very reasonable. I hate when there's nothing on a list under $60, it's just obnoxious, especially these days - so they got points there. The food highlight for me was some barely cooked nantucket bay scallops with ama ebi (baby sweet shrimp,) marcona almonds, radish, and some spicy microgreen surrounding a small pool of uni creme. Yum!

“Okay Danny, now say ‘she’s my cum dumpster,’”says Green, with a focused smirk, his moderately tired eyes hidden beneath a pair of Ray Bans. “She’s my cum dumpster,” delivers McBride with deadpan redneck aplomb, referring to his date, the local floozie who’s standing nearby and currently flirting with a large, black male. “I put a lot of shit into her.” I’m standing a few feet away, hearing this ribald improv through a headset, surrounded by the cast and crew of East Bound and Down. Nobody is laughing—professionalism aside—because everyone knows these lines are funny as shit, the funniest shit you can imagine. Airing in February on HBO, this new original series from the all-star creative team behind The Foot Fist Way, which also includes Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, looks to do for Southern stereotypes what Larry David did for rich neurotics burdened with follically-challenged cul-de-sacs.

Any thoughts on whether Google's practice of edge caching (storing content such as YouTube videos on servers close to people's homes for faster loads, etc, as I understand it) violates an open, neutral Net?
