Watched Top Chef: Las Vegas tonight and it was nice to see a Milwaukee chef make it on the show. Paul Bartolotta who has a big restaurant at the Wynn and he was featured in the first challenge. They also pronounce his name differently in Vegas than in Milwaukee.
They also sent Michael home tonight. Kind of surprising, but they were cooking vegetarian food and it all looked terrible.
I'd rather a person who can cook steak well and a terrible vegetarian meal than cook a who can cook a vegetarian meal and not a steak or other cuts of meat.
Anon, I understand how you feel, for the most part. I don't begrudge Garth Brooks coming back. If people are stupid enough to buy his ticket to listen him play a guitar, that's ok with me. But he will also produce jobs. Ticket takers, ushers, security, sound men and custodians to clean up, just to name a few, so there is trickle down.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you that we have not seen the worst in the financial conditions of this country. I think the dollar will be close to worthless and I also agree that people need to get out of debt instead of continueing to use the credit card, use payday loan stores and other forms of credit.
I just use a debit card, no credit card. I pay anything in cash or debit card, except my car loan, which will be done in a year.
And you are exactly right, it didn't have to be this way, and we are to blame. Greed and voting in stupid legislators- GOP or Dems.
