Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Does anyone know how to make an email distribution list in outlook out of about a thousand emails I have in an excel file?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

paperdol, you should put that question in Buffistechnology too.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I don't know how to do that, but can you just do a mail merge between your excel document and a word document which will be your email? I don't think you even need to personalize it to do the mail merge, and then each person doesn't get everyone else's email.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Just curious. Did you like it?

No, we were really overwhelmed by it. It was so big! There was so much icing. Also the chocolate flavour of the icing was really strong (not good, since chocolate is a migraine trigger for my sister).

We also found the cake turned out somewhat dry and coarse, although that might have been the oven's fault.

Really it was the icing that made it frightening. We didn't even use all of it, and if you cut a slice it would fall over because the icing was so heavy. I ended up eating the slice I took home one forkful at a time over several days.

Neither of us had ever made a layer cake before (lots of baking, just no layer cakes), so I think that contributed to our reaction.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did you e-mail Amazon back and tell them that you read an advance copy?

I did not because that would've required that the book be finished at the time. Which it wasn't. Still isn't but oh it's so very close now.

However, I'm finding that my will to live and/or focus on words is waning. I need more coffee, but I've had so much in the last twenty-four hours I'm just not that into it.

Kristin or Sean were really the Martian overlords

I can see the logic in this.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

However, I'm finding that my will to live and/or focus on words is waning. I need more coffee, but I've had so much in the last twenty-four hours I'm just not that into it.

1-hour nap, then shower and then coffee yourself up again?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Looking at the pictures of this cab on fire at Rockefeller Center should wake you up -- holy shit, it's crazy. [link]

HEY!

Also, I meant to congratulate paperdol earlier on her agent's acceptance of the new book proposal. Go you!

ION, I have received my first craxy parent email of the year. Ah, yes. Now school is officially in session.

That is crazy! The headline has me singing "Burn, Cabby, Burn! Midtown Inferno!" though
