I had a whole section about civic pride.

Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe some kid took it and can be guilted into returning it, or their parent will suddenly wonder how their child procured $3000 of electronics and call the school.

Maybe they can make some kind of announcement to the kids? "Return the bag or else terrible punishment will blah blah blah...."

Now tagless for your comfort.

Secret message to Cindy: Bwhahahahaha! That's very funny. And no worries. My message sound is quiet and unannoying. Your message also qualifies as the first communication I've received from an adult-sized person today. You quite possibly saved my sanity.

Always Anti-fascist!

Oh, SA, I'm sorry...makes my frustrations look small today. Well, except for the one big one.;) But I've had it since ever...one more day? Eh.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

Aw, SA, I'm so sorry.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Oh, geez, SA. I'm so sorry.

Is the bag at all distinctive? Like get a memo to all the teachers and staff ASAP to "be on the lookout for an olive drab messenger bag with a Hello Kitty patch" or something?

Anyway, safe-return-with-minimum-loss-ma.

DH gets in free because he's press, and I think I can pass for industry enough to get through the door.

Eeeeexcellent. So looking forward to seeing you guys! (In 5 1/2 months...who cares, still excited!)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

SA, I am so sorry babe. Hope you find it!

When making pot roast in a slow cooker, how important is it that you sear the meat first?

It will not ruin the meal. Searing makes for a better lookin' pot roast, and seals in some of the juice, but you'll definitely still be able to eat it.

ION, I would like a nap. In the alternative, a glass of wine and then a nap.

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

and seals in some of the juice

Myth! Seared meat actually loses more juice than unseared meat. In a pot roast, the main advantage to searing is the browned bits which add flavor to the sauce.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

No kidding? Duuuuude.

Thanks! I forgot to thaw it last night so I didn't sear it this time. It was really really good last time and I didn't so anything else different so hopefully, it'll be just as good.
