Choice of lesser evils?
I don't know which existence is worse on my page: the picture of Hillary Clinton, or the NewsMax ad that put it there. -1 for Adsense.

Playoff Hockey!
The Gwinnett Gladiators (aka Thrashers' AA team) are in the ECHL playoffs. I saw the first two games of the opening series, and the goaltending looked a lot better than a 3-seed. The home side has swept the opening round against the Rangers' AA team, providing a bit of revenge against last year's Thrashers debacle. Gwinnett is now waiting to play either Augusta or Charleston later this week(end). Here's to a long playoff run, and not just for the opportunity to go watch ice hockey on Memorial Day again. :)

In the process of attending two such games, I found good crawfish boil across the street from the Arena. I'm always circumspect about places that claim to have good barbecue, but the New Orleans' fare is top-notch. One or two more playoff rounds, and I'll have a new addition to the dining page.

In the wake of Incidental Chicken
And so, there was fried chicken on Sunday evening. And it was good. The experimental side dish (stuffed roasted red bell peppers) was sufficiently good to warrent a second attempt, with less crumbs and more vegetable (maybe beets). All in all, it was a good showing.
