I could have used potatoes, just didn't think of it. I'm not a hominy fan and don't keep it in the house.
Huh. Just yesterday I said "Do you smell that?" And upon discovering a burner had been turned on but unlit, we had to open up the doors and windows for a couple hours.
Good thing we didn't turn on the TV.
You know, to have enough gas in your apartment to blow it up from a random spark, it must have stunk to high heaven. His sense of smell must be very impaired.
Also...am I the only one who wondered at "giant lobster researcher"? I mean, is the guy like 7 feet tall and the lobster only average-sized?
We - and by "we" I mean a decent chunk of an entire University campus - had a 45 minute power outage just now. Whee! They aren't sure why yet, but made sure to tell us it wasn't our fault. Um, we didn't think it was.
In tin foil news, my daughter was playing with tin foil this weekend and we made her a tin foil hat. Shiny side out, of course.
Theo, in the article, the man decided not to light a cigarette after smelling gas (and he said that he had called in several gas complaints to management), but didn't think turning the tv would set off an explosion.
Best warm thoughts going out to libkitty's community, and to SailAweigh and aunt's family.
Timelies!
Took me 4 days to catchup, but I did it! Now for a faux-meara:
Google Mars: Looks like they've tiled one set of photographs 3 times (or possibly tiled 3 single photographs together). I'm wondering if they hurried this out for some reason - I can't imagine this is the only area that has been, or will be photographed.
heterosexual panic day: SA, for some reason, people who claim to have chosen their heterosexuality always tend to make me think they chose wrong. Whether I point this out them depends upon how much I perceive my opinion might freak them out. Feel free to decide for yourself whether I come down on the side of kindness or not.
Cupcake eating amongst the Lean Cuisine set: Just fun.
Straight guy who gets the lesbian vibe *and* top or bottom: Too cool and A Keeper! Plus fond bootlicking memories.
West Wing: My phone rang just as the opening credits were rolling after the teaser. I answered, "Are you watching this?!" She was.
Chili: I like mine over white rice. Where does that fall in the scale of Midwestern chili faux pas?

Hee.
Maureen Stapleton: Matt, she lives in my heart for informing Marilu Henner (her daughter-in-law) in the same film "I go both ways."
IIndianaN: Three straight days of rain = sogginess. But brought the cute bunny out of hiding into my backyard this morning. Cute bunny!

He also didn't think that winding up his "Sparky McSparkenson Spark-shooting Robot" would set off an explosion.
OK, that's mean. But hopefully funny.

OK, that's bordering on Darwin awards, and might have qualified if the TV hadn't blown up: "Hmmm, smells like gas. Better not light that cigarette. Meanwhile I'm going to sit down and relax and watch TV. Wonder why I'm so sleeeeepyyyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!"
*clunk!*
