Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

World's most expensive dessert:

The Fortress Sri Lanka, an award winning luxury resort in Galle has created the most expensive dessert in the world. Priced at $14,500 ‘The Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence’ is an effort by the resort’s culinary team to create a one of a kind dessert that is intrinsically linked with the destination, offering both long lasting memories and a keepsake of the experience.

Available on special request, the dessert’s inspiration comes from the resort’s logo of the ‘stilt fisherman’, a centuries old fishing practice that can still be seen along the country’s coastline even today.

A combination of a gold leaf Italian kasata, flavoured with Irish cream and served with a mango and pomegranate compote and a bubbly-based sabayon enlighten, forms the mouthwatering base of this delicious desert, however, the finishing touch is the 80-carat aquamarine stone nestled on the handmade chocolate stilt fisherman.

How much gold leaf would one need to eat before one was poisoned?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I hope you get to keep it.

Trust my rage

Crap, I heard people talking about Private Practice, but I didn't realize it was the Addison show. I guess I'll have to add it to my TIvo a week late.

Trust my rage

So, the first glance estimate on my car was $8K to repair, but the specifically does not include electronices and so on - just body work. The car is supposedly worth $20K (that's the low value) and I owe 18K. Anyone know how much the repair cost has to get to before I get a new car? (or have any experience with this. I haven't been in a car accident in 16 years)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am sorry, Stephanie, I have no car advice-- my non-running car is worth $200!

Also- am I crazy or did the owner of the practice used to be played by Merrin Dungey and is now played by Victoria Rowland? It was confusing, and I think Merrin did a better job.

Audra McDonald replaced Merrin Dungey.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes, they re-cast the part.

I have to say, that I'm going to bail on PP - just didn't like it. I did enjoy Dirty Sexy Money. That was fun. Even though I watched it this morning after a night of disturbed sleep thanks to a cat who kept vomitting and vomitting.

Do you think that cats find canned food easier to digest? I'm thinking of getting him a little just to see if he can handle it better.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I thought it was a different actress too, Sophia.

I forgot to tape DSM. Probably good, since I don't have time for it, and I don't know how I feel about Peter Krause these days (The Lost Room restored a lot of the Sports Night goodwill that I'd lost due to Six Feet Under, but not all of it.)
