[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.

Ah, I see at least one survivor from last night's party.

Those clocks are great, Lee. I don't think I have any place in my kitchen for a clock.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What I'd like is a way to just turn off all the clocks on my appliances. There's one on my stove, and one on my microwave, and I can't get them synced perfectly, and it just annoys me when they're not. Also, one on my VCR, plus my alarm clock. I'd like to be able to just turn all of them off, have my stove and microwave do nothing but make food hot, and put in a clock that I like to tell me the time.

My microwave, oven, radio and coffee pot all have clocks, and they're all within a couple of feet of each other. It's very annoying after a power outage.

move out and draw fire

Hey! I didn't break the internets after all.

It is an effort to get the stove and microwave to say the same time. Every time we lose power I give it my best shot. They are usually close enough that I don't catch them out of sync.

I have 3 chiming clocks. Usually I only have one running but I love when I have all 3 in sync. Rare I tell ya.

Hee, lovely clock, Raq.

I unplug the coffee pot every day so it never has the right time. I've learned to ignore it. Although my electric is good, I have lived places where it isn't so I developed a habit of unplugging the toaster and coffee pot.

The status is NOT quo.

I can report that Laga, NoiseDesign, and I are also among the survivors. Nsm among the "remembering most of the nighters" perhaps, but survivors.

How about pictures, you XXXmas partiers?

ION, I can't stop watching the Bravo marathon of The Biggest Loser. The product placement cracks my shit up.

I'm here. Present & Accounted For. Somehow I woke up on the couch at 6-ish (thanks to the alarm clock on my Treo) and drove back down here to feed the cat and sleep for another couple hours before my first show of the day.

As far as I can remember, I had 4 cups of the punch. It was tasty. I think my liver hates me.

P.S. I'm scared to see the pictures.
