And now for another episode of Cooking with Jaypoc….

I wasn’t as happy tonight. The food tasted great, but the chicken was too well done.

I made my famous coconut chicken… Chicken cutlets soaked in Malibu Coconut Rum for approximately a half hour (or more if you have time. I didn’t. Dad was hungry!) and then cook in a frying pan over pineapples…BUT, I didn’t have pineapples so I tried it over cantaloupe. The only fruit we had in the house. Time to go food shopping!

I think I’ll stick to the pineapples as the cantaloupe didn’t add as much as the pineapple does.

I served it with cooked green-beans (yuck! I don’t eat anything green unless raw. It’s a rule I rarely break) and Shrimp Cocktail appetizer (Cleverly arranged around a large martini glass with the cocktail sauce in the glass. Altogether, the meal was pretty good.

So, when are you coming over for supper? 🙂

Okay. I’m all ready to go out and I hear the Yahoo! Messenger chime coming from my room. I thought that I signed out of Yahoo! but okay… obviously not. I go to my room and someone asks, hi, are you there. I reply yes… they ask my asl… then they say they saw my profile and thought I’d wanna chat. This is already suspicious because if they saw my profile, they know I’m 27 Male and from New York…. so I make a random comment and of course she tells me how horny she is….

DAMN PORN BOTS!

What are these people thinking? Do they really get any business from this? argh! You can’t go into a Yahoo Chat room without being flooded by horny chat-scripts and now you can’t even be logged in without hearing from them. Yahoo! needs to do something about this fast! or they’re going to lose the market like ICQ. I used to use it all the time until it was taken over by spammers/porn advertisers.

Just in from Jillians… Workin’ on a few levels of Pump it Up…. They upgraded the machine so a bunch of the levels I wanted arent there anymore, but there’s a bunch of new ones… I’m getting better but still not as good as I am at Dance Dance Revolution! It felt like I was headin’ home much earlier, but I didnt realize that it was 12:15 or so when I left… I’m exhausted…

So I picked up a soldering iron today. It’s been a few years since I used one and I have NO CLUE where mine is….

I got in, found the wireless mic reciever and transmitter…. Found the cable. Sat down and realized..

THE DAMN CONNECTOR IS MISSING!

Now I have to run back to Radio Shack and pick up a cable. If only they made a 6 inch 1/4″ to 1/8″ mic cable. (To connect the reciever to my camcorder w/o leaving a 6 mile trail of wires.

Last night was a blast! We placed another Geocache. This time, a very difficult one…

Charlie called me in the afternoon. He was headed to the park to take a trip out to “Dead Bum Island”. It’s named that because fo all he knew, he’d get there and find a dead bum!
Well, I start on my way down there and he calls me saying that there was a piece of duct tape covering a hole in the raft. I met him at the boating store where we picked up another raft. We inflated it at the store, and tossed it in the back of Charlie’s Jeep. We realized that the raft was only big enough for one of us to take across, so I was going to go first. We had enough time for me to push out about 5 feet and take a picture when we realized that the raft was deflating. Inspection found a hole in the bottom. Sheesh! So we went back to the boating store. This time, we upgraded. We got the heavier-duty and larger raft. It was perfect. We inflated it and set off to Dead Bum Island!

We quickly found a place to dock on DBI. Laying in the water was a backpack… It is now part of our inventory… We got out of the raft and pulled it to shore. Interestingly enough, there were remains from a campfire there. and a few signs of civilization such as a pillow (or something like one) stuffed onto some tree branches.

We found a place to place our cache and headed back.

It was a really cool experience boating across this small lake to a remote island. Next trip, we camp there overnight!
