You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Omg, that's the high school I went to before my family moved to Illinois.

Strega -- did you go there too?

Well yeah, the bags say pre-washed! What's the point of buying pre-washed greens if you're just going to have to wash them again?

What she said.

I DO NOT WANT TO WORK!

And what she said.

I am horribly tired today, but nobody's said that, so I have to say it for myself.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Montgomery County police say Carol J. McVey, 49, began screaming at the group of Gaithersburg High School students and one of their teachers for saying "assalamu alaikum" -- a greeting that means peace be with you -- while they rehearsed the speech in a classroom.

Seriously - people with my maiden name need to stop being nutjobs. Unless they are directly related to me.

When you say "cooked spinach" I think gomae which is totally yummy.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Aimee, did you read the linked article? Strega just quoted the tip of the iceberg.

If there's a category beyond "nutjob," she qualifies.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Unless they are directly related to me.

So those are allowed to be nutjobs?

sumi -- Oh, wow, I didn't know you had lived around here! But no, I went to Rockville HS.

Well, within reason.

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

Dear Montgomery County,

What happened to you, man? You used to be cool! Between the voting machine thing, and now this, it's like I don't even know you any more! Stop acting out and go back being the county I grew up in. Now!

I like my spinach wilted with butter and garlic and a splash of white wine, or as an ingredient in lamb saag.

We moved out in 1979. (Yes, I am THAT OLD.) But that's where we lived. G-burg was a much smaller place back then.
