The evidence is mounting for the launch of phase 2 of the StarCraft II beta. We're running out of working hours for Blizzard, though. Here's hoping we'll be on Battle.net soon!

I haven't been playing that many games recently because I'm in the middle of re-watching The Wire. Started season 4 again last night. So good! Definitely my favorite season of the 5.

      There's a few meat/sausage shops I'll be checking out soon. Just got back from the weekly farmer's market actually, got some nice looking bread right before I got soaked.

        There is an awesome Italian shop near me but the line makes it not worth going. That and I have to drive there

  No reservations is less about food and more about bourdain being an asshole. I'm with you though. Food porn rules. The wife and I are enjoying the cooking channel.

    Bourdain portrays one of the nicest, possibly overly friendly, hosts of any cooking show I have watched. I think he's not critical enough, but it's more about just showing off all of these locations. Thus I'm not really with you on this.

    He curses and jokes a lot but always treats everyone with respect even if he dislikes the food

    Don't get me wrong. I really like bourdain and he is always nice to his hosts but he is a whiner. Curmudgeon is a good word. :)
    
    I'm gonna read his books soon. I hear they are pretty good.

  I just got to the the "Lust" chapter in his new book where he is describing all these meals, thanks for this!
