Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Sorry too, ita. Hope the ER goes well and is effective.
Once again, I'm glad to live in a state where equal marriage is a reality, and can point to the fact that it's obviously not hurt us by any quantitative measure.
(FTR, there were a whole lot of legislative battling over whether there would be a ballot iniative, which was eventually decisively headed off, so we never went through Prop 8 territory.)
Hey, Theo, is it still snowy/icy on the ground there? I'm trying to decide if I should bother packing sneakers, which are No Good on ice.
Jesse, yes --lots of snow, lots of ice where the snow partially melted, et cetera. It's mostly been steadily below zero, so not much has melted other than roofs and so on, but even so. And, of course, there are huge 5' snow berms in the streets where people dug out their cars, so it's harder than normal to find parking....
I swear, if I ever figure out a lifestyle where I could live in Tucson from December to March, and then back here for the rest, I sure would.
OK, no sneakers. I probably didn't need to ask, since even though our sidewalks here are mostly clear, it is still treacherous crossing the street because the curbs are all icy and bleh.
Crap, ita. May your holiday be pain free.
What Ginger said.

OMG, it's like a real-life Crankshaft
I've had a hankering for latkes this week. I've been thinking about my 5th grade class in the Boston suburbs, where a parent came in and made latkes with us. I'd previously been living in rural Maine, and suddenly here I was in a very diverse town, lots of first-generation immigrants from everywhere. I'd never heard of latkes before. Anyway, anybody got a best recipe?
I am at work again today, and between the cookies I still want to make, and the need to make a gingerbread house and do the first half of a boeuf bourguignon tomorrow, I have no idea when I can make latkes. But I want to!
Flea, I'll ask my mom later. It's supposed to be really simple: just have mash potatoes, oil and sugar in hand. Some use onions as well.
