"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

A meal lacking in delicious flavor.

Maybe you could order some Chicago pizza to your door. Or, I don't know, curry. Or Hunter's Stew. Or an Italian Beef.

I had the mediterranean burger, made with parsley and onion, a shmear of goat cheese, all on a whole wheat pita. So good.

I could walk two blocks and get a curry, but then I wouldn't be able to make a nerdy reference about a psychic detective.

(I am fairly certain that the meal I'm making will be quite tasty.)

A small price to pay!

I have no doubt.

This Just In: TJ's garlic Naan, heated slightly in the oven, is the perfect thing to dip in a variety of TJ's dip things (such as: Tzatziki - Greek creamy garlicky cucumber dip; Hummus; Spinach Dip; even that whackass cilantro / pecan dip).

Damn. I need more naan in my life.

I really like TJ's naan.

Tom made an awesome haddock chowder. It was shockingly excellent.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It was shockingly excellent.

I, too, am shocked by its excellence. Haddock - who knew?

Also, my "this just in" reference actually referred to a recent Emmett homework assignment.

He had to make a timeline connecting his personal history to social and cultural historical events.

Plus he had to render it with a metaphoric theme.

So he used clocks and when you flipped up this particular clock, about Walter Cronkite's death it said: "This just in...I'm dead. And that's the way it is."

That still cracks me up.

Also (going way back), Miracle Man, you are correct that Emmett's parsing of Constitutional Law is shakey. However, he's just shy of 13 so I'm psyched that (a) he knows there's an 8th amendment, and (b) he's against the cruel and unusual punishment.

Wait! Nilly's married! She's Mrs. Dr. Nilly and she's on her honeymoon! Woot!

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

Wait! Nilly's married! She's Mrs. Dr. Nilly and she's on her honeymoon! Woot!

There is no part of this statement that is not awesome.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Wait! Nilly's married! She's Mrs. Dr. Nilly and she's on her honeymoon! Woot!

Wheeeee.

Today was very long, and ended with me discovering I did something stupid that means I have to go into the office early tomorrow.

The Nilly wedding makes up for it though.
