Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

huh ... my mother always told me that chocolate was bad for a sore throat and/or cough. Obviously, she lied ... probably wanted to keep all the chocolate for herself.

I think it's probably the milk in chocolate that's the problem if you've already got a cough? Because dairy makes you all phlegmy, and if you're already all phlegmy and disgusting then it's a bad idea?

Aw, Barb and Andi- I hope your bodies start behaving themselves soon!

Ugh, I have the hiccups.

Ugh, I have the hiccups.

Jasmine the Lab does too. And she's lying on my feet at the end of the bed. Feels like I dropped a quarter into it or something. Makes typing interesting.

I thought that was a myth?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Found this on Wikipedia [link], and it makes me wonder just how much theobromine is in a square of 100% cacao baking chocolate.

Isn't that the substance that can kill dogs? If it is, you could probably search that way -- IIRC, when Dallas ate an 80% dark chocolate bar out of my purse there were "should I rush her to the vet?" websites that listed those amounts.

What's a good corset buying site(s)? I can't remember recommendations.

I got mine from Meschantes -- though not custom -- and it's fantastic. Very VERY well made.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Meschantes -- that was the one I couldn't think of last night.

So Possibly the first recruiter from yesterday called again this am -- 730. He seemed sosurprised that Matt was in the shower.

Maybe. My friends (who are professional singers) avoid dairy before singing for this reason - said it fucks up your voice & throat. But I guess they could be just repeating an old wives' tale.
