Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

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

Is the Rachel Maddow interview with Obama available online?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

At least highlights are here: [link]

hip deep in pie

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

Forget Halloween, this is the stuff of nightmares.

Cook With Coffee

A bunch of recipes. This sounds potentially very nummy:

Coffee Shoofly Pie

If you've never tried shoofly pie, or made one, you really should. A specialty of the Pennsylvania Dutch, it's a very full-flavored, molasses-y pie with a part jelly-like, part crumbly filling. It's noteworthy that historians aren't sure where the pie got its name. One theory says that the sweet stickiness of the pie was a real fly magnet. Another claims that the name came from the French chou-fleur - cauliflower - which the surface of the pie is said to resemble, texture-wise. In any event, I don't know that the Pennsylvania Dutch ever add coffee to theirs.

It's not at all out of the question: the coffee flavor has a certain compatibility with the molasses.

...

Bottom line: this is a delicious pie, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream to balance the forward flavor. Easy, too, since you can use a frozen pie shell from the supermarket (or make your own, of course.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am not even going to look - that sounds crazy. I'm scared that floral print jeans may be next on the horrible fashion trend redux.

My $800 toilet and $600+ data recovery, not to mention the approx $40/week extra on household help - blew the budget this year, but no new clothes/shoes for a year, cheaper household cleaners, and ebaying stuff is helping a bit.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I saw a Miley Cyrus video yesterday where she performed with Electric Mayhem. It was really cute.

What are the Russians thinking?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Grammar question: "on every level" or "in every level"? Or is it depends on other parts of the sentence?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I had a flowered jean jacket! OMG-- so horrible.

Oh yeah, clothes falling off didn't help either! I actually cut back on some things, but something else always managed to make it up.

Ah well, I have a car that mostly works (still haven't dealt with no dash lights...well, unless you count the $5 clip-on LED,) computer that works & is backed up, cats that are alive, teeth that have been repaired finally...

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Shir, the phrase "on every level" is much more common, but if someone had many levels where things could be placed, I could see "in every level" being used.
