Hill Country boasts the “Best Brisket in the Big Apple,” and we’d have to agree with their presumption. The moist brisket, sliced thin and smothered in Teutonic-Texan seasoning, needs no additional sauce. It’s that delicious, and it literally disintegrates in your mouth. Forks, knives, and teeth are of no use against brisket that is this slow-cooked.
Dear DateSpacers,
We apologize if we seem a little anxious, but who could blame us? Have you been following New Yorker contributor James Surowiecki’s commentary on the likelihood of a world without the print edition of the New York Times [also here]? The prospect is just terrifying. Without the print edition of the Times, how will we get through our Sunday hangovers? And what of all the smug college kids who subscribe so they can show their peers just how worldly they are? What’s to become of them and their form of literary conspicuous consumption? And what of the slogan, “All the news that’s fit to print”? Hello!?!
But the worst thing about losing the print newspaper would, without a doubt, be bidding adieu to the comics. There’s nothing funny about losing the funnies. Not only do newspaper comic strips offer entertainment from the side-splittingly hilarious (see: Family Circus*) to the deliciously enthralling (Apartment 3-G, anyone? Is there anything more tantalizing than blue hair?), but they also provide invaluable information.
