Seems to be my "pick Buffista brains" day. A friend gave me some VERY sour tomatoes. I'll bet that is an advantage in the right recipe. Anybody care to share one?
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Bills paid, PTA newsletter off to the principal.
At first glance I thought the PTA was paying off the principal. Scandal!

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
Billy Budd didn't put me to sleep, because of the amount of time I spent imagining strangling Billy Budd. Note to authors: If everyone wants your character dead, when you finally kill him, all readers feel is relief.
Someone could sent the Heros writing room that memo.

Do you LIKE a touch of sour, Typo Boy? If so, I like fresh homemade tomatoes tossed with penne, with olive oil, minced garlic, capers, feta, (god, it took me 5 times to type "feta" and not "etfa") and red peppers. Eat hot or cold, but I think it tatses better when you make it the night before and eat it cold.
Oh, sometimes I toss toasted pine nuts in there too.

Biden's debate prep cracked me up.
The debates are going to be a trainwreck, aren't they?
Oof.

Damn, aurelia -- that made me laugh until I nearly cried. Especially Biden asking if he could hold his granddaughter during the debate....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have one of those days with a lot of meetings with a little time in between, but it doesn't feel like enough time to get anything done (this is, of course, a lie), so I'm totally going to waste my day.
