Smoked and cured sausages like Andouille were originally created as a way to preserve meat without refirgeration. Dont sweat it they will keep plenty good until you are ready to use them.

Looks good, but what you made was way closer to Ramen than Pho. I would still eat it, nothing wrong with calling it Ramen and not Pho
I have to think that the 1% increase in white votes was a much larger number than the 2% increase in black votes. 1% of 1000 is more than 2% of 100....

I went a couple weeks ago and had the Roasted duck soup, it was amazing. The waitress said they are trying it out on the weekends to possibly add it to the menu full-time. I hope they do, if so this will be a regular stop for me. Also the Pork belly sliders/buns are on point.

Look into Buffalo Trace, probably the best bourbon you can buy in that price range.

Unless the people doing the hiring at this company are a special kind of stupid this isn't their first rodeo and they know that by interviewing people out of state they will be looking for relocation help, this isn't uncommon and not normally a deal breaker. I think you are reading too much into this.

Asus has been making some good stuff lately, you could probably get more for your money with them.

I've found that my 10-22 is really picky about what it likes to eat. If it's not a kind of ammo that my gun likes every other round with jam, now once you find the right ammo that thing is perfect.
I do believe that that may be the purpose of this board.
What was that thing we used to eat back in the day? What was it......oh yeah, pussy.
You should watch PJ20, awesome documentary and it goes into detail about all this.
