Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I've only ever known it as cilantro. And actually didn't know it existed as a dried ingredient until I went to college.

It's an American thing. In Australia, for instance, there's fresh coriander, dried coriander, chopped coriander, ground coriander, coriander seeds, but it's all coriander.

FTR, it's just the leaves I can't stand. No problem with the seeds.

My brother's the same way, bt. He can deal with coriander, but after a bad experience with too much cilantro in a soup that made him ill, he won't touch the leaf anymore.

I just took that 2008 news quiz--got 80%, and would have done a bit better if my coin flips had gone the other way on six questions. Still, not too bad!

You know, I think they need a Hello Kitty Roomba! That might make my year!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

They do have an HK Roomba: [link]

I wonder how much trouble I would get in if I got one for the house ...

Yay--My boss just told me not to come in tomorrow! This "working" during the holidays is really turning out to be a good plan.
