So if you have a wedding, people are always worried that they will offend someone. However, you don't expect that if you don't let people in to your reception that they will come back and shoot up the party. And I really don't think it should happen two streets away from my house. the entire city police force was here last night, plus the gang task force. Charming.

So far we aren't here details - it is an open investigation - there were some arrests and a couple of people injured.

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

Jaysus, Beth. That's terrible.

Sounds like a lot of good advice you've gotten there, Sophia. I hope your friend can turn it around.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Damn, beth.

In apparently minor crime news, I guess the deli I like got robbed yesterday morning, because when I went to go in there at 12:30, cops told me the store was closed. But then it was open again later in the afternoon, so I assume it was nothing too major, or anything against the owner or something.

Yeah, the worst we got was a riot an Evergreen during a "Dead Prez" concert.

You guys, for the first time in years I just got a Friday NYTimes crossword puzzle 100% correct without looking anything up. Could I be ready to attack Saturdays?? (If you don't know, they get progressively harder, Mon-Sat. Sunday is bigger, but not as hard as Friday, usually.)

I used to not suck at crosswords. I envy you greatly, Jesse.

I'm at bedbathandbeyond.com. I need a new pot. Simple enough. I'm trying to browse to something similar to what I'm retiring. Alors! What is this? Braisers/Everyday Pans? Whose day is this every? What am I missing?

I know what I need is something like this (haven't decided between non-stick or non-non-stick yet). But I wonder about these cooks and their every days of which I know not.

My training is totally paying off! Although, then I read the blogs of the actual elite crossword puzzle types, and realize that I'm barely training at all.

Also, I don't think I knew there was an item called a braiser. Huh.

Braisers are used in pairs, and they're on the top of narrow columns, holding a lightly fragrant flame. They're placed to either side of the altar.

It is also possible that one is used to place the excised organ after the sacrifice hsa taken place.

Basically, I thought they lived in D&D.
