This is your weekly reminder to submit recipes to the Buffistas Cookbook at buffistascookbook at gmail dot com. We've gotten quite a few, but we'd like even more. We'll be collecting until Monday, September 12.

Also, I just wanted to let people know that we're going to be going through Natter and Bitches and pulling recipes that have been posted in the thread. As we pull them, we'll send you an e-mail asking for permission to "publish" the recipe in the cookbook. Just wanted to let you know this would be happening.

I have two brand-new, unopened copies of Angel: Live Fast Die Never, music from the TV show. If you want one (or both), zap me a note to my profile addy and it's (they're) yours!

Edit: And they are gone.

Book Club update:

Now that the Harry Potter discussion has died down, the book clubbers have consensed on the classic story, Hound of the Baskervilles, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, as the impending selection. Ginger has agreed to use her literary powers for good, and guide us through the treacherous Holmesian terrain. And not only is the story available in bookstores and libraries everywhere, but thanks to Project Gutenberg and the reformatting and hosting efforts of Deena, the story is available in an easy-to-read, HTML version here: [link]

We are currently considering whether to discuss this selection in some sort of chapter-by-chapter way, or as a whole. Feel free to stop by the book club thread to weigh in, or watch this thread for an update on discussion method and start dates.

ETA: updated link

The big-ass insurance company I work for is looking for underwriters at sites in Boston, Bridgewater (NJ), Hartford and Tampa. Many of these positions provide flexible work arrangements, including work from home. If you or anyone you know is interested, send 'em my way.

Yes, I get a referral bonus. What's your point?

Voting is now open for the following proposal:

Proposed: Should we add a Veronica Mars thread?

Jim writes: I propose that we have a VM thread. Purely selfishly, I can't keep up with Natter these days, and I want to discuss VM in the kind of depth you only get round here.

Discussion for this proposal starts here.

Voting closes Thursday, August 25, at 6 AM (PST).

For a limited time only, some new-member-of-the-family pics are here.

It turns out I will not be attending Dragon*Con after all. (boo)

I have a reservation at the Courtyard Marriott (three blocks from the venue, on a nice quiet street, according to the ever so pleasant reservation clerk). The room features a king bed and a pullout couch and rents for $94 per night plus tax.

If you, or anyone you know is having trouble finding sleep space, let me know and we can have the name and payment info changed on the reservation.
