I like the Bob's Red Mill 5-grain hot cereal. It's oatmeal, wheat berries, barley, and two other things that I can't remember right now. It's got a much more interesting texture and flavor than just plain oatmeal. I make it with unsweetened soy milk instead of water, and put honey on top.
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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Never had oatmeal at Starbucks. Is it steel cut?
I think so. It was satisfactory. Filled with adequatulence.

A tabloid is apparently reporting that Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant again. Oh, my god, y'all.
She's practically a Palin !
(Notice how they can't seem to plan a pregnancy? What is UP with that?)

I urge everyone to try salting their oatmeal instead of putting sugar on it. I tended to find sweetened oatmeal somewhat cloying. Then a Scottish friend suggested that I try it "the proper way" i.e. with salt and I was an instant convert.
Yeah, I definitely need a pinch of salt in the pot when making oatmeal. So bland otherwise. But then I put sugar on too!

The shocking part is that the baby is really Sarah Palin's.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I thought we established with the Edwards thing that the Enquirer is always trustworthy...?

Okay, so I asked a co-worker if she had time yesterday to proof a document I've been working on. She said yes and took it, but didn't look at it until this morning. So I asked her to return it to me before lunch. She now just returned it to me half done (it's now 2) because she doesn't have time to finish it. I was supposed to have this into my boss this afternoon, and there's no way it's going to get done.

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