"Watch out for the giant, irradiated hands!"
Wasn't that "ants"?
It was definitely ants. It was a reference to the movie "Them," about giant ants created by radiation. I think it's the only time Jericho has made me laugh.
Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone. I was taken out for dinner and beer Tuesday night and last night. Tonight I'm going to a concert. This weekend may be devoted to recovering from my birthday.
eta: You shoot doves with a shotgun using birdshot. They're cooked like quail.
How much eating can there be on a dove?
People eat squab, which is pretty much the same thing. I think dove might even be Kosher.
There's some kind of end-of-month report spewing out of the shared printer in my cube, and I've put 2000 sheets of paper in it already this morning, and it's
still going.
Help. Am doing boringest project ever. Is Boss' project, handed to me because boss got bored.
I hate that shit.
Printer still spewing. Paper so hot in the tray it burns my fingers. Toner beginning to fail.
people dove hunt in TX, they eat them
My uncles and dad used to hunt them. They are like squab. Not much eatin' on them but what's there is good (if you like that sort of a thing).
Top Chef: I'm not sure why
Emily instead of Michael. Drama? Or was her dish really that inedible? I had been prepared to like her based on the little we saw in the first couple of eps but her "I hate kids" really turned me against her.
And it was probably through a lot of prompting from
the producers but the hammering over the head of "I cook FINE food. I don't know how to do this" drove me batty! Have some imagination!
I've been obsessed about what I would have done with the
childhood fave reimagined challenge. My first thought was macncheese but I think fancy macncheese has been done. Maybe tamales.
t Not really here
I just got this on e-mail, and my first thought was sharing it, even if only for the first coffee-themed one.
t /No, really, I'm not here.
Okay. Report appears to be done. Or printer has gone crazy and fallen asleep.

Dear Coffee,
Was there caffeine in you? Did you commit seppuku on my coat because your lack of caffeine brought shame and dishonor to your family?

Bwahaha! YouTube is being sued by UTube:
Universal Tube, a company that sells pipe making machinery, has embarked on a lawsuit against YouTube, claiming that the video sharing site has disrupted its business thanks to the similarity in the two company's web addresses.
Universal Tube's website resides at www.utube.com, and it seems that plenty of wannabe YouTubers, fluent in text-speak, but less adept at typing out full words, are surfing their way over to the Universal Tube site by accident.
In the suit, Universal Tube alleges that its traffic has soared from around 1,500 hits in a month to over two million because of vast numbers of visitors looking for "lewd and other disgusting video".
This, the firm alleges, has caused confusion, cost it money, and caused lost sales.
Universal Tube owner Ralph Girkins issued a statement saying: "This is an enormous expense and distraction for us. Contact with our customers has been disrupted, so I fear we have lost sales. We have even been contacted by police in Australia accusing us of having child pornography on our website. I resent this personally and this confusion is hurting our business."
