Picked this baby from the garden tonight:
That’s an eight inch Viking chef knife to let you know how big that tomato is. I have about a dozen more that will be ready in the next couple of days- it’s some odd heirloom that is half orange and half red, but they become these monsters.
Also, I got sick and tired of looking at the old couches that Tunch had destroyed and I got upset every time I saw his empty lump on the couch, so I bought a used leather couch, lounge chair, and ottoman for a couple hundred bucks from my cleaning lady (so they were in pristine condition) because she was moving to Michigan and needed to unload them. I gave the other couches to the frat boys. And yes, I know you will hate the color and bitch at me, but I do think they are a step up:
I think they are comfortable enough for me, plus, they don’t remind me of the magnificent fat bastard, the dogs and Steve love them, and well, unlike those other god damned fluffy monstrosities, I can get in and out of them without a hydraulic lift.

I think the new stuff looks just fine. Dog seems to like them.
But I thought Cole was fussy, what’s with the slop mess of shawls or blankies or whatever thrown over the top of the chair. For shame, Cole.
Edit: and next time Cole needs to find a ruler to show how big his produce is. How do I know what that knife is? I smell another blog ethics scandal… been years since we’ve had one of those. Whatever happened to them, anyway?

Also, I don’t really get the appeal of the T&H painting. This isn’t related to his trollishness – hell, it isn’t even related to is artistic ability since Cole said T&H produced exactly what he wanted. I just don’t get the appeal.

My Cherokee Purples don’t come in so huge (or uh, ugly, that thing looks like a pumpkin) and they’re always a little green on the top, but they’re all red tomato meat on the inside and very tasty.

The only bit of furniture I really really want from Kentucky is the Saarinen table and 4 chairs (possibly copies, but of the same period and very very good) I bought in Paris, KY for $110 in 1995. DWR now sells the reproduction for a couple of hundred $ a chair, never mind the table. Oh, and the original vinyl mid-century modern chairs (6) I bought from the same dealer for $60 – later saw a couple of those chairs in one of the zines I used to subscribe to listed at $250 apiece. Without the arms…
I’ve been buying rattan here in San Diego, and by ghods, I swear whether it’s in or out of fashion, it’s my furniture of choice now. I’ve got a living room’s worth of good/indifferent pieces all of which I can move myself, including the sofa. That makes Mr S very happy…
I’m sorry. I’m such a proponent of not buying new if possible.

My summer splurge was two Eames molded plywood lounge chairs. They retail for over a grand apiece, but I got the pair for under $500.

They make my house look so classy, despite the dog hair and Legos and Ikea furniture all over the rest of the house.

Since the thread is turning to interior design, our apartment is super torn up right now because I rearranged a bunch of furniture and am building more. G was not super thrilled that my shoe cubbies are going to be next to my bookcases, but he had to concede that it would be a win if I would just put my damn shoes in them on a regular basis.
And around here, it’s all build-your-own, all the time. One day we will be real grown-ups and be able to buy furniture we don’t have to build ourselves.

Cole, you need a Murphy Bed and some alcohol counseling.
But seriously, I commend thee for buying used for yourself and then repurposing your old couch to the frat laddies who will turn it into a work of art Jackson Pollack style with bodily fluids and then spray paint it, toss it off the deck and set it on fire.
Bill E Pilgrim
I think it’s brilliant. The Americana corner cabinet contrasted with the metal moderne take on Deco or whatever it is, the suburban carpet, drapes, leather couches you could lose your date in (“When I came back from making the daiquiris she was just… gone! Damn, I was sure I was in.”) and all topped off by … is that a Grateful Dead poster?? I clicked to get the larger image to find out, but I had to click back, the carpet was actually visible that way and I was getting dizzy from the fumes.

@Mnemosyne (iPhone): Architects often have problems working on their own houses. We don’t make even half as much dough as everyone thinks, and many of us really don’t give a shit about interior finishes or colors. And we’re too busy working for other people to do awesome stuff for ourselves.

Is Steve really a cat? Cole needs to check.

No one has asked Cole to re-arrange the furniture yet.
OK, I will. Cole needs to move the couch against the wall so you can sit on it and see out of the window. Everything needs to face the window, and make that the focus, to face the beautiful sunshine and everybody be all happy and cheerful in the Cole household.

I don’t object to low acidity because I have a mild allergy or something and if I eat too many of them, or too many with a high acid level, the roof of my mouth breaks out in blisters. Very annoying. Home-grown usually take two or three weeks to cause it, 3 or 4 days for it to go away. Right now I’ve recovered and am back to eating them after a short hiatus. Our best performer is something called Super Fantastic, which always makes me laugh because it reminds me of that blog, The Manolo.

Fuck the NRA. I’m happy it looks like de Blasio may have skirted over 40%, but losing those two recall races in Colorado is painful. We have to do something to improve turnout on our side, or the right-wing fuckers are going to recall everyone who’s not in a dark-blue seat because they know they can get turnout up on their side.
Absolutely depressing. Goddammit.

I just can’t fathom why on earth people in the non-urban parts of this country love guns so much. Some assclown quoted in NYT said it’s a ‘deterrent’. From what – contact with other human beings?
I dislike Bloomberg immensely, but hopefully he hires someone with some ounce of political skill and figures out a better way of spending his money on gun control measures. Pouring it into TV ads was a total waste. And we need someone on our side on this issue who is willing to spend some coin to counterbalance the NRA.
Kay
@BillinGlendaleCA:
It isn’t that for me. It’s that they’re rigidly conventional people. Not as far as their personal lives, I don’t know anything about that, but as far as having a template in place for everything that happens.
I know compare/contrast is the easiest sort of analysis to do but they reach for it every single time.
The slightest veer from what has happened before and they panic, and try to jam it back into a box that they are familiar with – or perhaps have heard about in Russert’s case because he’s obviously too young to have this wealth of experience he fakes.
THIS is always JUST LIKE this other thing, but BETTER or WORSE. It’s such a bore.
Maybe that comes out of being a legacy hire, actually.

I can’t stand jake Tapper usually, but I was listening to punditry on and off all day yesterday because I was in the car a lot. Tapper did an actual analysis of what Obama’s thinking might be, based on Obama’s past actions. His theory is Obama’s reluctant to use force because he increased troop levels in Afghanistan so sees the limits of military force in a direct personal way. I don’t know if that’s true, but at least it’s not this dumb “what are LEADERSHIP QUALITIES?” babble.
Gergen then ruined it because he was probably terrified someone was veering off script with too much specificity and actual thought and he ran back to the safety of “let’s compare Obama to a private sector CEO”
Oh, yawn. Not that again. And again. And again.

@Omnes Omnibus: The NRA-Republican recall elections against Giron and Morse were successful in Colorado. Meanwhile Hickenlooper is polling at less thatn 50% and is barely ahead of is succe. People who like gun regulation apparently don’t feel strong enough about it to vote, while those who feel any gun regulation is a symbolic castration do vote, and often. And apparently this is all President’s Obama’s fault. The green lantern syndrome is strong.

The tomato looks like an ‘old German heirloom’ variety. There are several related varieties, some have a network of red stripes on the bottom and less on the sides, but this one does not appear striped, so I am going with my identification. They are all rather meaty and mild, eat them before they get to ripe, I find they tend to become somewhat mealy in their taste if you let them over-ripen. I grew a similar variety this year, and it made for good eating.

Completely OT, does NBC have to rerun the 9/11 tapes every year? I understand doing it early on – maybe the 1-3 anniversary and then the big number ones -5,10,20,25 etc. but jeezus every freaking year. I hate hate hate watching that clip with the first tower going down, then the second tower, then going to the people running down the street. I’m not underplaying the momentousness of 9/11 but I would be willing to bet NBC wouldn’t be doing this if it had been in some other part of the country – they’re so New York-centric.

@sherparick: Count me as another disappointed Colorado resident, but not as a surprised one. The areas these two recalled pols represented have a high concentration of retrograde wing nuts. Add to that the facts about how the recall came down (our wing nut state AG made sure we didn’t have mail-in voting) and that it has been cold and pouring rain since early Monday (rare here), HUGE amounts of outside money, a bit of the standard “all politicians suck” lack of interest, and you end up with an election that was poorly attended by everyone except the rabid NRA freaks. The two that replaced the ones who were recalled also went with a strong anti-abortion push, and (1) Pueblo is very catholic, and (2) Colorado Springs is home of Focus on the Family, so that got out the religious anti-choice crowd as well.
I suspect also that the current low polling by Hickenlooper has had more to do with the frenzy being whipped up over these recalls and probably won’t last. Completely wingnut Tom Tancredo has announced he will run against Hick, and once people get a good look (again) at what a freak that guy is, Hick will start looking a lot better. I hope.
We no longer subscribe to broadcast TV and use internet TV (HuluPlus, Netflix, etc) instead plus some local over the air channels, so I know we aren’t getting the same immersion in the political stew that cable subscribers get (it is nice, I have to say, to not have to dive for the remote every commercial break). Maybe not being in that same soup means I’m not getting an accurate feel anymore. I will say this though, broadcast TV is something most people in mid-30’s and younger no longer bother with, and that has some major implications for political messaging.
