Has anyone seen my boulder?

I got blackout drunk a few weeks ago in Astoria, and since then I haven't been able to find my boulder. Looking back at my phone pictures, I had it the morning of, but no pictures of it after that night. I got it from a foster quarry as 3 oz unwanted pebble during covid. I'll admit that I'm a sucker and definitely overfeed the cute thing -- so it's probably about 6 feet cubed and north of 12 tons.

The night I lost it, I had a few drinks at the LetLove Inn, and then a few more at the Bonnie. That's where I got separated from my friends, and all I remember. It's possible I went looking for a good Gyro, as I often do when I get inebriated. It's also possible I went looking for places that no longer exist like Star Garden or Rizzo's Italian.

If you think you have my boulder but aren't sure, drop me a comment asking about it, and I'll answer your question.

I'll be coming back to Astoria this Thursday to do my $10 Live Magic show at QED, so if you do have it, I can get it back from you then.

▲ 200 r/eggs

This is how my company cafeteria cooks their eggs every day.

To me this is inedible. The texture is like eating dry curds or feta cheese crumbles.

I've asked them to not be cooked this well, but they said this is fine. It's not burnt, but it's a consistency I don't think I could get cooking scrambled eggs in a pan if I tried.

I haven't touched it in months. Am I overreacting? Are these ok?

Thanks Astoria for coming out to our live magic show yesterday at QED!

Thanks to everyone who came out last night? Despite being in-between the Knicks, the World Cup, and 90+ degree heat, we got a nice sized crowd who were super enthusiastic & welcoming! We had a ton of fun & look forward to being back next month.

Special thanks to Dan in the front row who chugged that Smirnoff Ice!
