Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Because books.

Yeah. We should form a club.

I call President!

Is there a Mistress of Punishment job available? I'll sign up for that...

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Covered in melted cheese. With bacon bits.

Steam them just until they're a nice bright green and still crunchy, then season (to taste) with sea salt -- or table salt -- and pepper, and balsamic vinegar (if you like it). Top with crumbled feta cheese.

Also try it thusly... Steam them as above, drizzle with fresh lemon juice (and possibly a very small amount of melted butter), and top with pan roasted almond slices.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Slice up some garlic, toss it in a pan with the beans and some butter. Saute until nice and crispy, then cover to steam for 4 minutes. Take off heat, add a capful of lime juice, cover again and shake to coat.

(Between this and Natter, I think the moral is: green beans = yummy.)

I like to just toss them in a pot of salted, boiling water for a few minutes (like a very few 2 or 3 depending on how big the beans are), drain and toss in an ice bath for a little bit. Salt and eat. Plain but delicious!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Did anyone actually watch the clip show? Was it as painful as I suspect it was?
