Summertime Blues, & Chilled Blueberry Soup

Well, they don't say "July Sucks in the Restaurant Business" for nothin'!!! Slow ass month of sales is "killing us to death slowly, until we die from it". We must hang on until our momentum catches up with all the good hype. The word on the street is the best advertising there is, so we are fighting through the best we can. Maybe the new chilled Blueberry Soup will help bring some attention our way. By The Way, It's Really Good!!!
Where to start in the world of sports?? Right off the bat, condolences to the family of former Philly Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Johnson, who lost his battle with Cancer, and passed away yesterday at the age of 68. This guy really took defensive coordinating to another level, and his defenses were some of the most attacking and aggressive, and most feared in the 90's. He was also an awesome human being, and any player who played for him, will tell of that, and are feeling his loss today. God rest his soul.
Mark Buerhle pitched a perfect game, 27 straight batters without a hit, then follows that up with 17 straight in his next game before his bid for back to back perfect games was busted up. For those that don't follow baseball or sports in general, realize this: "THAT"S UNFRIGGIN" BELIEVABLE"!!! He is in "The ZONE" people.
Mike Vick has served his time for doin' the crime, so let's let him get a shot a rebuilding his life. It's the right thing to do. I was one who wanted him to get nailed to the wall, because I think he fell into "Da'Thug Life", and he has paid for it. But the story behind his release and subsequent re-reinstatement to the NFL is: Who the "EFF" is going to take on this side show????? There has been talk, or at least innuendo, that my beloved NE Patriots would consider taking him on, but trust me: He is SOOOOO not a Belichick/Kraft kind of guy, so that will be a huge surprise if they do. At any rate, Tony Dungy has his back, so he's in good hands. Good luck to the lad!! Losing the corn rows is a great start!!
As always, eat well, drink in moderation, and love yourself.

Chef Bighead
