Totally watching the Leary Xmas thing.(Maybe I'll feel festive by comparison.) Would still date Vince or Jon, but they *are* looking rough these days. Ruby should be OK, Allyson.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Frequently, and today was no exception, I am fooled by chicken pot pie. I think it will be just like regular pie, because the crust is oh-so- delicious looking. And I am rather disappointed by actually eating a gooey mass of overheated peas and repurposed chicken and can't finish it.

shrift, I think your doctor can just do away with bloodwork. He can diagnose your high blood pressure simply by spending a day on the job with you.
Pretty much, yeah.
They've got me for three more hours, and then I am gone until Monday, and there's nothing they can do about it! Mwahahaha!

I never liked chicken pot pie - 'til I made one myself -- way better than anything I ever bought. and one year at my BIL's house in VT - shortly after tday dinner, we made turkey pot pie.mmm..... and then the sweet potatos became pie...mmm. It was fun teaching men how to kitchen cabinet cook.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think this is it for me, too. They could and should be good, but in reality, they aren't.

I've had a good one once...I think at someone's house. But you are right, bon, they are never as good as I think they will be.

This is one of the neatest art installations I've heard of in a while.
You are invited to place an object, any object, into the chestlike extension. Close the hatch. A yellow light goes on. You hear a sliding sound and a clunk. Your item has temporarily disappeared into the big box, just as dozens of others have, including wallets, photographs, specially made items (artists have brought their own work) and, memorably, a 2-year-old child. (The daughter of another Koenig artist, Erik Parker, spent a few hours in the box, emerging delighted but respectfully mum about her experiences - the Gelitin team had sworn her to secrecy.)
Take a seat. Eventually - the wait can be from a few minutes to more than an hour - a light on the other extension goes on. Open the door, and you'll find your object joined by a brand-new, handmade "duplicate," or at least something that more or less resembles the original.
