tommyrot, between that and Karl Rove, I'm positively giddy this morning.
I has a Thai curry.
Except I'm also filled with surly envy of shrift. Our nearest tasty Thai place closed a few months ago and the next nearest Thai place is on the low side of adequate (not that I could afford to go out for lunch right now anyway, so maybe it's for the best that there's no longer any Thai worth going out for).
Cool bag.
I love that the name is "peacekeeper"
Awesome bag.
I have everything except crabmeat with which to make Salmon Oscar. Methinks I'll need to scare up a can tonight so I can make this for dinner.
You people are making my lean cuisine sound less and less appealing. May have to take a trip outside.
Wanna have a Tiki party but don't know what drinks to serve? Here's a shitload: Orchids of Hawaii Bartenders' Guide / Catalog (1981)
Many of the drinks look quite nummy....
It's too bad, because his icon is one of my favorite things.
I don't remember if this was posted before...
A useful scientific study: On the Effectiveness of Aluminium Foil Helmets: An Empirical Study
Abstract
Among a fringe community of paranoids, aluminum helmets serve as the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals. We investigate the efficacy of three aluminum helmet designs on a sample group of four individuals. Using a $250,000 network analyser, we find that although on average all helmets attenuate invasive radio frequencies in either directions (either emanating from an outside source, or emanating from the cranium of the subject), certain frequencies are in fact greatly amplified. These amplified frequencies coincide with radio bands reserved for government use according to the Federal Communication Commission (FCC). Statistical evidence suggests the use of helmets may in fact enhance the government's invasive abilities. We speculate that the government may in fact have started the helmet craze for this reason.
Heh.
