On silly refrigeration rules. The brand of raisins I buy starting putting a notice "refrigerate after opening". Dude: I'm not going to refrigerate raisins. They were invented as a means of preserving grapes, and if you refrigerate them they go all hard and dry . This also applies to other dried fruit with the same warning.
Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The worst Christmas specials and TV movies ever
Of course, 'Santa Claus Conquers the Martians' and 'The Star Wars Holiday Special' are in there....
Shales called 1995's Kathie Lee: Home for Christmas, "a sickeningly saccharine vanity production that should really have been titled O Come, Let Us Adore Me." Her 1998 outing, Kathie Lee Gifford: Christmas Every Day, led him to ask: "What's the difference between the 24-hour flu and a Kathie Lee Gifford Christmas special? Twenty-three hours."

I'm happy to announce that I have both Babes in Toyland and Christmas in Pac-Land on original VHS. And they're both awesome!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The worst Christmas specials and TV movies ever
The Year Without a Santa Claus remake that was on NBC Monday night deserves to be on that list.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
One reason why she could leave a turkey out and not get sick is that she knew how to cook a turkey. The problem is, if you don't cook the turkey long enough, the salmonella near the bone isn't killed, and you've made an extra-special dinner for the salmonella with all that warm meat. Also, in the old days before factory farms, we hadn't managed to infect almost all poultry with salmonella.
I'd nuke the meal and eat it, myself.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
C-I-N-C-I-N-N-A-T-I Cincinnati!
The best town in O-H-I-O Ohio, they say!
At first they called it "Cincy" but the Cincy was so natty,
They called it Cincinnati, so they say!
That song is the the only was I ever remember how to spell Cincinnati.

That's what I'm going to do shortly. I'll keep you posted as to any adverse affects!
It's been crazy foggy today but the sky is at least getting bright now. that really very bright of sun shining behind fog. That I just stared at for too long and now all I can see is spots.
sarameg, if you're up on the Ave. shopping sat. afternoon and have a minute, stop in Atomic books to say hi!

"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is on the Sci-Fi Friday broadcast this week. Hubby wants to watch it. How drunk do I have to be to be amused and not in pain?
