and I almost wanted to submit myself for some to unjack up my shoulder. Twenty or thirty stings should loosen that shit right up

But how do they get the bees to sting just right where they want them to?

Somehow it does not surprise me that trepaning stars sounding good to ita...

We have two Victors, now! Shall we rename one of them?

Yep! Sorry, VictorC, we'll have to change your name. Hmmmm....thoughts? Our Davids became Knut and Hecubus, so it needn't have anything to do with Victor...

One reason I want to go a pick-your-own berry farm is I figure it's less likely to be of the tasteless enormous firm variety you find in the supermarket. I'm hoping to for once find blackberries that are actually tasty, as opposed to just look good--the ones in the supermarket are always just sour.

But how do they get the bees to sting just right where they want them to?

They were applying them with tweezers--basically swabbing their stabby asses across the correct spot, and then the bee would sting and the stinger would break off and stand there pulsing venom in.

I don't know why it feels like it would work. But it's not like the pills do.

Hmmph. Masonry documentary totally denies they're running the country, although they did totally found it.

Freemasons are clearly hard up and looking for new blood.

Trepanning does have its obvious appeal.

Er.

ita, I think we saw the same documentary you are watching. It was all--here's the myth! Knights of Templar! An ancient murder! Jack the Ripper!.... Nah, it's just a bunch of old geezers, a bit of dress up, a bit of pinocle... good times.

Your apartment is adorable, Allyson. It's so pulled together. And I adore your bed. Which seems like a really odd thing to say, but there you are.

And I just had ginormous, delicious, flavorful strawberries the other day. It was bliss.

It was in the end very much a letdown, Burrell. It's the second one on the topic TiVo has given me in the past month, and although the first one had no Illuminati and much fewer Knights Templar, it was a bit more interesting.

I hadn't had strawberries in way too long so I ordered some for lunch last week. When they arrived they were HUGE and absolutely without taste.

When it comes to fruit, size does matter. And smaller is better. Go figure.

yeah, HUGE let down if it's the same one I saw. I mean seriously, if that's all there is to your super seekrit ritual--KEEP IT A SECRET for goodness' sake!

I'm hoping to for once find blackberries that are actually tasty, as opposed to just look good--the ones in the supermarket are always just sour.

Just wait till August, and I'll show you a bike path/utility right-of-way with tasty (feral) blackberries growing on either side!
