Did you know if you microwave Barbie long enough, everything but her feet will melt into a puddle of goo.

awesome. though I'm trying not to think of the smell.

But her feet are amazingly resilient and will remain intact?

not if that's the part you fed to your guinea pig. while dangling her by the hair above the cage. and figuring out how you could pin it on your new baby sister. (no guinea pigs were harmed during the torture of this barbie, btw)

though I'm trying not to think of the smell.

If you try this experiment, be sure to visit a university dorm and use THEIR microwave. Actually, there are better microwave tricks to do first: ivory soap and lightbulbs to name two.

I want to try one of those white pizzas with garlic and clams on it, but I can never find one. But I love the white pizzas with spinach. Mmm.

Hey Kat, do you have dinner plans?

My brother and I used to put Han Solo in the freezer a lot.

Styrofoam cup ketchup volcano was always fun. As was peep jousting. But yes, don't use a microwave that you have to clean out.

You all with your toy torturing. All I ever did was take GIJoe's hands off and put them on his feet. Okay, and I decapitated many Barbies, but that was strictly in the interest of changing their hairstyles.

But yes, don't use a microwave that you have to clean out.

I need these words tattooed on my right hand, the one that touches the keypad to enter the time on the microwave.

I'm teaching at 4:30 @ UCLA tonight...so no plan plans but I only have a bit between being at P* and being at UCLA. What's up?

oh my, I wish I could have played Barbies with you! all of you!

You know, when I log in and one of the threads has suddenly piled up a lot of posts, it usually means there's a passionate discussion of some food item or other. That or jello wrestling.

Hec, from what I hear LA has MUCH better food selections than back in the day. Mind you certain things it always did well. (Always being defined as back to date of my birth -this post is very me-centric.) Mexican food, Japanese food, Korean food, and yeah Jewish deli. (Kantors is considered as good as anything in NY by many New Yorkers.) Also had good Chinese food, but with a lot of really bad Chinese food, so you had to search for it. I liked So. Cal when I lived there, and suspect I would like it now, though it is a very different world from when I was there; my having been born there and lived there for twenty odd years would probably do me zero good if I went back.

Oh phooey. I wanted to see you is all, but I'm here grading and won't be back until 5ish. I think my best bet for seeing you is to plan ahead to meet up with you so I can be home in time.
