Well to make a long story short hot and cold air make steal expand and contract. Also, steal is a pour insulator. Not only did this house pop, creak, and groan when ever the heat or AC was turned on, the house needed them all the time because it got full sun in summer and high wind exposure in winter and the whole structure was built like a giant heat sink.
The lesson of this story? Design for functionality first, and if your design is highly functional it will have a cool all it's own.
One of the want-to-be gangsters decided it was time to slap a 10 year old around because of this. My friend politely explained that he didn't want to fight, and that the kid across the street was a jerk, but it was too late. Some one was going to get a beating down. Thankfully my friend COULD kick the living snot out of a 17 year old without any problem. He threw the 17year old over his shoulder and pinned him down, and then explained again very politely that he was not a fighter and asked him very nicely to go away.
The jerk came back in about an hour with his gang and started throwing stuff at the house and yelling to come out and have a clean fight. My friend got rid of them by holding up the phone to the window and shouting "I'm calling the cops right now" and then shouting "9....1....1..." They all took off runing and we never saw them again.
We are in our 30s now and his calm, peaceful ways have only gotten more so. He has relay earned my respect.
Now, the marinade was good, but that is the treatment you reserve for >$1.50 a pound stuff. When you have beef, or anything, that is at the epoch of what it should be, it is best left as simple and wonderful as possible.
Love makes the world go 'round, with a little help from intrinsic angular momentum.
