Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.

If it hurts, don't eat it.

I think that's a good rule in general.

Spicy foods not withstanding.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Spicy foods not withstanding.

Mmm.... capsaicin. t /homer simpson

Previously suspected chicken is in a pot in the oven, yay.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

How are you cooking the perp, -t?

Sparky, did you get email from me at your profile address?

Favorite smoothie: 1/2 cup frozen whole strawberries, unsugared, 1/2 cup frozen peach slices, unsugared, 1 small banana, in chunks, 1/2 cup orange juice, 1 scoop whey protein powder. If your blender has speeds, start on "crush ice" and build up to "blend" and "liquify". You may need a tablespoon or two of plain water to increase the liquid. Yum and num.

Also? Hi.

One of my students emailed me with a whole bunch of really specific questions about what topics will be on the final. Another asked for a breakdown of how many questions covered each topic. Seriously? No.

Hi, Bev

French Chicken in a Pot a la Cook's Illustrated. Never made it before but I felt like not cutting the chicken up and I had enough of the ingredients on hand for a credible attempt.

It's been cleared, btw. Not only was the Sell By date tomorrow, it smelled fine when I opened the packaging and chicken usually starts to smell icky to me before it's officially bad. I'll tweet if I end up with food poisoning.

Hil, your students, I just don't know.

I've also got one who keeps telling me that he needs to use a calculator because he has a disability. I tell him that I'll let him use a calculator as soon as I see the paperwork from Disability Support Services. This has been going on for pretty much the entire semester, and he just submitted a request for a calculator for the final, and still hasn't gotten me that paperwork. I've emailed DSS to ask what to do about that one.

Has anyone been watching Greensburg on the Green Planet channel? Documentry on the town in Kansas that was leveled by F5 tornado, and is rebuilding green.

I've watched it a few times -- I don't get that channel here, but my parents do, and I've watched it a few times when I was visiting them.
