Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's really easy to blame ELF for pretty much anything, because there is no organized ELF. There's some vague national organization, but pretty much any bunch of people can get together and say they're an ELF cell, without any sort of contact with the national organization. So bunch of people torch a new development and spray paint "ELF" on the gate, that's part of the "conspiracy," even if they didn't have any contact at all with anyone else about what they were doing. And then all of those incidents get added up to a conspiracy conviction for the national people who didn't actually do, or possibly even know of, most of the acts in the conspiracy charge.

That's pretty much the dealieo with Al Quaida too, isn't it?

anyone know the answer for Indianapolis? (Travel time from airport to downtown, taxi, no luggage

I'd say probably more like 20 minutes than 15...depends a little on what part of downtown, and how many one way streets you have to go around and around to get to where you're going.

I have a jam in my pantry labelled Tasteful Drunken Threesome.

And it is AWESOME.

Sitting on the Shelf O' Jam at home, I have I Can Razberry, Tasteful Drunken Threesome, GCS Orchard apple butter, cherry almond jam, key lime marmalade, blood orange marmalade, Meyer lemon marmalade, Blackberries Ov Doom jam, pomegranate jelly, plum butter, and a couple of jars of quince paste. Oh, and a couple of jars of Rosemary's Baby Carrots. The moral of this story is, have friends who like canning, and always offer them whatever fruit is in your yard.

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

But what about the bread? What do people use for the bread?

(still really that bored)

Whatever's in the freezer, which is always some sort of wheat.

Granola bread is *ideal* for a peanut butter and banana sandwich, though.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

so, my boss has gone. but can I leave? no. I have people coming around 5:30, so there would kinda be no point.

Not that I am doing much work, or have done all day.

It's done now.
