OK, this isn’t exactly news anymore, but on November 6 the Denver Biscuit Company rolled out two new biscuit meals for winter. One is a shrimp and grits biscuit. The other is pulled pork. As you can guess, I was excited about both of them, so I visited the first Saturday morning they offered them.… Continue reading New Biscuits at the Denver Biscuit Company
I got the porno scanner and the grope down both in one day
Beth and I went to South Padre Island for Thanksgiving this year, and I got subjected to not one – but both – of the controversial new security protocols. I got the “porno scanner” and then got the “grope down” both while passing through the same security checkpoint. Here’s my story. I’m writing this at… Continue reading I got the porno scanner and the grope down both in one day
YYZ in Rio
I had the DVD of “Rush in Rio” playing in the background while I caught up on bills and mail. When YYZ came on, I just had to go watch it. Even 25 years later, the guys still play it flawlessly. It’s funny to watch the musicians, though. They each have such different personas on… Continue reading YYZ in Rio
Friday night bachelor meal
Beth’s still in Kansas City, dealing with issues related to her father. So I’m home alone for another weekend. Tonight, after getting home I decided I wasn’t in the mood to go out for dinner by myself. But we didn’t have any leftovers or easy-to-prepare meals. So it turned out to be another bachelor meal.… Continue reading Friday night bachelor meal
I won’t buy a Kindle until there’s a used ebook market
I visited Barnes & Noble this afternoon, for the first time in a while. I got a gift card, and decided it’s time to use it. I found an interesting book and paid full retail price for it ($21.95). Then later, I saw that on Amazon.com, the same book sells for about $14. And buying… Continue reading I won’t buy a Kindle until there’s a used ebook market
Habanero’s
Habanero’s is a little Mexican quick service restaurant now located where Tacqueria mi Barrio and Tacqueria Tamayo used to be. I’ve been there 3 or 4 times now, and have enjoyed it every time. They have a larger staff than before. Although the main cook who used to work at the previous two places is… Continue reading Habanero’s
Little Anita’s
Todd’s briefest restaurant review so far: Little Anita’s now has a store in Broomfield, where the Burger King near Miramonte and 287 used to be. It’s a chain of New Mexican restaurants. I like the food, and they serve Mexican Coke. I don’t like that they switched to full service. For a place like this,… Continue reading Little Anita’s
Ooka Sushi & Asian Cuisine
There are a lot of restaurants popping up with this pan-Asian theme. The menus all seem to be pretty similar, offering dishes from Thailand, China, Japan, Vietnam, and sometimes Korea. Ooka is Broomfield’s latest. They’ve got pan-Asian down, but also have a respectable sushi bar. Ooka is located in front of Safeway, in the old… Continue reading Ooka Sushi & Asian Cuisine
I miss my blog
If you are one of the few who actually regularly read my Todd Bradley’s Galaxy blog, you may think that after my trip to see the night time space shuttle launch I promptly died. Well, that’s not true. It’s just that I haven’t been in a very wordy mood, I guess. What little blog style… Continue reading I miss my blog
my first and only space shuttle launch
This morning at 4:14am Eastern Time, I got to see something I’ve never seen before, a space shuttle launch. It was STS-130, and probably the last night time shuttle launch ever. I was about 3 months old when Apollo 12 went to the moon, and about 11 years old when the thing we now call… Continue reading my first and only space shuttle launch
