I should perhaps have also noted that my sister also does not have any coffee in the house, and the closest starbucks is a 20 minute walk.
Which I am now going to undertake.
Flames wouldn't be eternal if they actually consumed anything.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
As a nation we consume too much. We need to shift our economy and I really hope that we can make that shift without things getting too dire in the next couple of years.
Krugman is also talking about the consumer spending numbers today: [link] I think it is going to be rough for a while, no matter how the shift is managed, but I like his brand of thinky.

OMG, another Sartorialist pic of Hammer pants!
Once again, this is in Russia. I went back to the other post of Hammer pants, and the comments were mostly positive. I fear for society.

Dear Consumers:
Please do not spend your precious dollars on Hammer pants!
Kthxbye, Me.

I think it is, Sue. Some kind of freakish shiny hammer-pants onesie.

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