This week on The Test, I quiz the ladies on some highbrow shit . . . and they perform admirably. If you listen closely, you'll notice that Stacey not only invents a jazz musician, but also cracks a number of hysterical jokes that Cunningham and I completely ignore.
I have some trouble "taking stuff from my head," but the Voice of God comes to the rescue. Cunningham corrects me on-- of all things-- a sporting quotation, and I come up with an extemporaneous bonus question and then refuse to let the ladies answer it because I want to answer it myself. It's astounding that they put up with me.
Take a shot, keep score, and see if you know as much "elitist stuff" as we do.
Jerry, this one is right in your wheelhouse.

before sliding on my loafers this morning that had been placed by me in the laundry room next to our garage door, a pair of underwear from one of my girls found itself situated in the right shoe. just enough of the little panties were inside the shoe to remain lodged there and unnoticed by me until I arrived to my office building and specifically, in the elevator with a female coworker.
Just want to make sure you folks know the Super Bowl is next Sunday, in case you haven't seen or heard that news yet.
Driving home. Just passed exit 269, which used to be exit 69. It's 69° here in SEVA, and my phone currently has a 69% charge. Not lying. Not kidding. Not bad.
Found out my son's health teacher is named Mrs. Lewinsky. I can't stop laughing. Told him to ask her if her favorite color is purple. Wife is now giving me the look of death.

i just met soledad o'brien. 'cause i'm a pretty big deal.
Tough night for Martin O'Malley.
Big shout-out to Marley Marls and Zman, who each donated a few shekels to my wife. She's doing a cycling event on Saturday to raise money for rare cancers. I'm not sending this for any other reason than to salute Marls, whose very generous donation fantastically ended with a dollar amount of 69. My wife was a bit confused at first, until she realized it was a friend of mine, and that a donation of that type should be expected.
Not four years...
I too considered a round number 69 donation but was too shy for a local display of frattiness like that. Our new cleaning lady started today. She broke a mirror and left s note saying that next time she'll clean the kitchen better. She also somehow managed to disconnect and unplug various aspects of my home theater so that zkids could not watch Minions and zwoman couldn't fix it and I had to work late and came home to a shitshow. Can't wait until her next visit.
I can't believe the zwoman didn't fire her on the spot. No Minions!
69 donations are an under appreciated small joy in life.
I made my share of silent auction bids at $69 intervals at the W&M event a couple years ago. It didn't catch on with the crowd.
After a couple visits that completely screwed up our home entertainment system I had to instruct the cleaning lady to stay away from the entertainment system altogether. I'd rather do a little extra dusting than have to reconnect a bunch of shit when I get home.
I have the same battle with our cleaning ladies. And they always put my remotes in a location that is less than intuitive. And that includes the totally small, prone to be lost anyway appleTV remote.
This morning I opened my closet and discovered that she rearranged my shoes. My eyes rolled into my head and I started speaking in tongues. My summer Lavers were rotated to the front, my winter Lavers were in the back, all my work shoes were on the bottom of the stack, and my Adidas ZX90 DQM Consortiums were stacked like firewood with my shower shoes and other detritus. No idea why she felt the need to go into my closet, as opposed to doing a fulsome job in the kitchen.

Many political analysts today opine that Trump lost in Iowa and that Cruz and Rubio are big winners. But Trump and Rubio got 7 delegates apiece while Cruz got 8. I guess math isn't part of political science?
I see on the Facebook that Marls is with a birthday today. Happy bday Marls.
Z, it seems like your cleaning lady was busier rifling through your drawers than she was cleaning your house.
Jamie Vardy's first goal of today's match against Liverpool magnificent. The pass to set it up was pretty special too.
my wife loves our cleaning woman and she is essential to our marriage, but she does some wacky shit to the entertainment system and i blame her for all broken things in the house . . .
Man U started little-known striker Cameron Borthwick-Jackson today on his birthday.
The year of his birth, you might ask? 1997. Dude turned 19 today.
Commence feeling old(er) now.
He's a defender, not a striker. Not that anybody cares.
His mother was a mudder.
enjoying this green flash pacific gem pale ale . . . if i were more bombastic, i would say this about it:
A: Berries! Blackberry leads the procession, followed by a darker fruit note... black currant? Some woody note in there too, plus a cracker-like malt in support. Subtle, inviting.
T: More berries, in the taste. In addition, a white-bread crust shows up in a clean crisp malt. Ends quite fruity, rather than bitter and hoppy.
F: Medium-light body, average carbonation, but that's ok. The flavors here are subtle and delicate- less scrubbing action needed.
O: My first experience with a Pacific Gem single-hop beer. Enjoyable, easy to session.
S: 3.75 A: 4.5 T: 4.5 F: 4.0 O: 4.25
Pairs with: Fruit salad, mild cheeses, chicken or pork with a berry-reduction sauce.
that's from beeradvocate
Has anyone ever had a beer with their fruit salad? That combination seems... odd.
There's a joke to be made here but I'm not funny enough to make it:
"Ends quite fruity, rather than bitter and hoppy."
4Loko Watermelon pairs well with fruit salad.
NLI thing is out of control. Our local HS just posted a picture on the tweet machine of two students going to Cornell and Sacred Heart. Good for them but come on.
What's the point of a letter of intent from Cornell, they can't give sports scholarships?
"Entertaining" a couple clients at the Steph Show I mean Wiz game this eve. May try to catch the warm up routine.
