I know just the one you mean, Hec. Bwah! There is one place I can get it because my mom swore to the guy that I have an allergy or something and need to know, and that our culinary skills are minimal and we don't copy them.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Still, he lead a long, productive life....
Somebody should've interviewed him about his career.
I almost forgot! I saw cool costumes on my way through North Beach. Top three, counting down....
3. A whole Asian kindergarten class in costume (princesses, superheroes, etc.) being lead down the street by their teacher in a Snow White Costume.
2. A very pretty, tall black woman sitting at a window seat eating her salad. She'd pulled her braids up into two high ponytail sprays that looked exactly like Minnie Mouse ears. Which she augmented with a little black nose and whiskers drawn on. Super adorable.
1. A whole gaggle of film geeks at an outdoor cafe near Zoetrope, entirely dressed like...the crew from The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Cool!

This is a great Studs quote (from the end of the linked obit):
He then said that he wanted his and Ida's ashes to be scattered in Bughouse Square, that patch of green park that so informed his first years in his adopted city.
"Scatter us there," he said, a gleeful grin on his face. "It's against the law. Let 'em sue us."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hec, Dylan is a lion. He says "Rawwwr!
Very sad about Studs Terkel.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Daniel!
Happy Anniversary Jilli and Pete!
Waiting for the trick-or-treaters to arrive...

Is he making claw hands?
Very sad about Studs Terkel.
Working might be his masterpiece, but I loved what I learned in The Good War.

I have committed early voting. Barack Obama gets at least one vote from conservative Provo, Utah. Here's to many more.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am bummed out about Studs Terkel.
Also bummed out that I fucked up my nail polish immediately after leaving the nail place, but not at all bummed out about the trick or treaters who came into the nail place while I was there!

Ha--the Colbert Nation homepage has a video up called "The Music Man," a montage of clips of Colbert singing (and playing sax with Kareem Abdul-Jabar) on his show. Very fun!!
There's also the clip of last night's "The DaColbert Code" bit which had me cracking up.
