Thanks guys! And especially Billytea for the turtle trivia.
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.
Happy birthday, Jessica!
I want to know whose idea that was so I can buy them a present.
Probably Doris Egan. She seems to be responsible for most of the awesome things on that show.
Happy Birthday, Jessica!!!

Hil, the answer to your question about arrowroot powder is that sometimes grocery stores have it. Sometimes it's with the baking stuff. Sometimes it's in the health food section. Sometimes it's one of the things they mysteriously bring out only at certain times of the year, like Pillsbury Hot Roll Mix. It's packaged by big companies like McCormick. What sort of things do you use arrowroot for over cornstarch?
This reminds me of a family business on St Joseph's Island (Canada) - Gilbertson's road building, gravel, and pancake house.
I saw a sign in North Georgia for a business offering tax preparation and lawn mower repair. "You know, Bob did such a good job on the lawn mower that I think I'll have him do my taxes."
Yay for GC's friend's news! They'll probably want her to have radiation, but aside from taking so much damn time, that's pretty much a walk in the park. A long, tiring walk, mind you, but way better than the other routes.
My mom found Vicks' VapoRub highly effective for treating the burn from radiation.
If the grocery store has a gluten-free section, that's generally where I've seen arrowroot powder in the past.
The Trinidadian restaurant around the corner from me also does tax prep, but in that case it's just an accountant friend of the owner who sets up shop at one of the back tables.
I've mentioned my idea for a House ep with Fry, right?
A guy comes in who doesn't know who he is and "picks up" identities from things he reads. For most of the ep he believes he is House's English manservant...
