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

Or maybe organizing into folders.

Damned skippy!

Just got off the phone with a user that almost got away with getting me to change another department's shit just so his could stay the same. Sneaky, sneaky man.

I want this, but it's probably not worth getting it from across the ocean.

I need a good, but simple cherry pie recipe.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I enjoyed the candidate photos, too. Such different lives and different people.

Excellent links, Tommy. I've seen Dark Roasted Blend (from your links, I think) but neglected to mark the site.

And I don't know how I missed Laughing Squid.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

And I don't know how I missed Laughing Squid.

It has squid! And laughter! And San Francisco! It's one of those very Buffista blogs. Also, those boingy boingy people gank like half their stuff from there.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

And I don't know how I missed Laughing Squid.

Dude! It has San Francisco stuff!

How else are you going to learn about stuff like the Cardboard Tube Fighting League Tournament San Francisco

eta: I have to quote this (again, I think):

The CTFL was created out of a desperate need to better train and arm citizens with cardboard tubes. While many speculate that our fore fathers, when drafting the constitution, originally intended the fourth amendment to refer to fire arms, there is now a small group of non-academics who believe that they were more likely referring to elite militias of card board tube wielding ninjas. While this training often takes place during childhood, it is discarded by adults who remain uneducated about the importance of such practices. The goal of the CTFL is to provide organized cardboard tube based events that help spread cardboard awareness.

Perkins, [link] is the best. It uses all of the sites mentioned, and more!

I was just looking over those candidates' photos again, and I noticed that in my favorite pic, the one in the bumper car, the hands controlling the car that Obama is obviously aiming for look like they might be Michelle's. Hah!

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

And I don't know how I missed Laughing Squid.

I don't know how you did, either.

Due to the nature of my job, I'm often trolling Eater SF and its sister site, Curbed SF. My favorite (non-SF) bartender's blog.

None of those are new, but they're all enjoyable.
