Okay, on some research I am discovering that warm water in not the way to go when de-icing. But windshield wiper fluid is! Also they have teflon-in-a-can now, that you can spray into locks, where it evaporates instead of turning into the gunk that is WD-40 when it dries.

Innovation! I don't know if that will also fix the tires-frozen-to-raod issue, but, one problem at a time.

My experience was that if it is Salmonella there will be a point where you literally cannot leave the bathroom. I have never ever experienced such complete clean-out in my entire life, except then.

I'm thinking that *if* this is Salmonella (which is possible, but I'm not sure if it's likely), it's not a severe case. Which is good, yeah, but I'm still not crazy about the nausea.

They have the Ringling Bros. Circus in MSG. They're used to cleaning that sort of stuff up!

I think this is the same stuff that you can spray around your doorframe prior to a freeze, and it'll make getting your car door open less of a chore. According to my Dad.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do not believe they just bring the elephants outside to do their business.

There are a lot of stomach flu-type things (norovirus) going around at the moment, at least in my neck of the woods, so anybody feeling funky may be suffering from that instead of salmonella.

I LOVE the biggish fluffy white doggies - Bernese Mountain Dogs, I think? So sweet. I like shepherd-type dogs. They have gorgeous mountain sheep dogs in Turkey, too.

I need to get some sheep, and a dog to watch them.

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

Bernese are mostly black, but very sweet. Are you thinking of Great Pyrenees, which are quite big, and fluffy and white? Either way, they'd help with the child care.

Mr. Jane was all, "You know this is scripted right?" Shut up Mr. Jane.

IT FEELS REAL. I don't remember where on my flist I read it, but someone said that it feels like watching a documentary.

From now on, whenever people ask me what my high school experience was like, I can point at FNL and say, "Like that, only with snow and cows."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hey Jesse? Was there a reunion thingy last night or was it last week? What happened with Nate and Jenny Lee? I was babysitting last night and didn't get to watch the finale so I'll have to catch it Sunday.

The book that originated both the movie and the tv series was non-fiction. The set designers and camera men? filmographers? deserve a lot of credit. Connie Britton and Kyle Chandler were on NBC's morning show yesterday saying that they don't rehearse, so every time they start to shoot their reactions are fresh.
