Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No, Spitzer has family money (which he lied about using to pay for his election to AG), and she left (Skadden, I think) a long time ago.

Oh yeah, I forgot about his family. And didn't realize she hadn't practiced in so long, until I just read this profile: [link]

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I dunno. Silda is a smart cookie, and very tough. I doubt anyone is forcing her to do what she doesn't want to do. I don't like the idea that she's not doing this for her own reasons-- maybe her kids, or her divorce settlement, or her other ambitions after this.

Like Hillary.

I'm with bon on this one. Also, those poor kids.

Somebody remind me to buy coffee before I go home. And that it's okay to spend a little bit more for a pound of good coffee because it works out to $0.30 a day.

Life is far too short for bad coffee.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Random: awesome kitchen gadget.

In the kitchen, there are gadget people and then there are knife people. Gadget people are never content to rely upon a traditional, elegant solution to a food preparation problem, and instead use various colorful and wittily named gadgets. Knife people want to turn their sharpest knives on the gadget people resulting in a colorful and satisfying plume of blood and a cascade of the ever-intensifying screams, but do not ultimately do so for fear of somehow damaging the blade.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Like Hillary.

But would not going to the press conferences really hurt their ambitions? I can see how it could hurt the kids, but I don't see how it could hurt her divorce settlement (if she decides to go that route). If I were in her shoes, I think I would rather be with my kids.

Too true. And while I'm not planning to shell out the money for, say, a pound a Blue Mountain, there's a Caribou Coffee around the corner and it's not much more expensive than Dunkin' Donuts.

That is cool (the garlic zoom). I'm not a big gadget person, although I did buy a Mouli Persil and a Mouli Julienne on my last trip to France. Those are more of a nostalgia item for me though.
