Congrats Sophia! I'm so happy that you are getting away from your asshat of a boss.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Oh my GOD, I hate people.

You poor dear. Have a pancake.

Have a pancake

Because they arrest you if you go around pouring syrup on people. Unless those people are paying you to.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Congratulations Sophia!!!

I love diving and I think Greece might yield some interesting things to see on the bottom. Like being Lara Croft and searching for ancient artifacts, but with the leaving them there and fewer guns hopefully.

Cooking question: I have some lovely farm-fresh eggs and the possibly incredibly bad idea of making a cheese souffle. Alton Brown has my back on a recipe and it seems like it might even work. However, he wants me to use cream of tarter (in the whites to help them foam and keep their peaks). Are there any substitutes or am I heading to the grocery store? If I buy cream of tarter, what am I ever going to use it for again?

Pancakes won't keep me from wanting to bludgeon the woman who just sent me an insane and bitchy email.

Her: [cc-ing everyone] "You sent me the wrong thing. I need this, this, and also this, and it has to look like this. And I need it ASAP."
Me: "Dude. It would have helped if you'd MENTIONED that, like, EVER. But you did not, and now I am left feeling all 'what the hell?' and 'how did I get into this left field?'"

shrift works with JackAssDave (What? I'm going to hide his identity? He's a jackhole and he can suffer the wrathful thoughts of Buffistas.) at my office too? In drag, obviously.

Use the pancakes as a silencer.
