There is probably an Al Swearingen Somebody out there, new parents being what they are. Corwood, if you go on being brilliant like that you can do it wherever you want. So, yes, I'll confine my comments on that particular fucking television experience to movies in the future. Putting out the canned peaches and all.(Whitefonted for putting vulgarity out on the thoroughfares of Natter.) weng mai (crosses fingers) God is is getting me back for bitching about the Chinese in Firefly, I swear.

You know what would be cool? If we could pass around the Buffista Hive-Palate, sort of like the three Norns do with their single eyeball....

It would probably gag the next time I use lots of cilantro to season something.

Ha! Speaking of, is anyone here an expert on pate de foie gras by mail order? I was thinking about shipping some to Bob's mom as a thank you, but am worried it might not be any good. I found some online but don't know what's acceptable.

Oh, to have been present at that interview and therefore able to shout "Like that whole "Weapons of Mass Destruction' hunt!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just got my son's insurance card in the mail, naming him as "Peter Edward ..." Actually his name is "Peter Hawkins ..."
My mother was baptised Leslie John because the priest literally didn't believe anyone would name their daughter Leslie.
On the sangria, I made some really bad made-up sangria on vacation, and by the second it was actually not that bad. So my only advice is, if it doesn't seem like it's working, give it an extra day or so.
