Okay, someone explain this drink to me. It sounds great, right up until the inclusion of the black olive. Smirnoff vampire gimlet
(Hec, I'm especially looking at you on this one.)
Not Hec, and super-late, but I add green olives to Perfect Manhattans and the salt nicely offsets the sweetness of the whiskey and the sweet vermouth. I'm thinking that's the same idea here, especially since Rose's still had sugar instead of HFCS in it at that point. It'd be worth trying with real lime juice, vodka, sugar, and an olive.
I need to let a colleague in our health division know if she can say they meet with a doctor at least once every season, or whether she needs to qualify it (most seasons or something similar).
Yeah I couldn't say for sure.
(Show makes me roll my eyes a lot, but I've ended up seeing a whole lot of eps for reasons that don't exist.)
ha, yeah. I love a transformation, though. And I only ever watch it recorded so I can ff through most of it.

OMG SO BORED. Friday afternoon. No signs of life in the office.
Father Cantelamessa is an idiot. Or a liar, or a lying idiot.
I just got back from Good Friday service (had to leave in the middle; I think there's at least an hour to go. At the beginning of the universal petitions, the priest who asked us all to pray for Benedict our Pope actually did an eyeroll as he said the words. He kind of ducked his head so that not everybody could see him do it, but I totally saw. The look on his face was halfway between, "Not enough prayer in the world to help you, dude" and, "It causes me physical pain to say his name out loud."
When your (several times removed) underlings are rolling their eyes at your name in public, that can't be good.
My train is one of those double-decker dealios! I'm sitting all high and shit. In the dark.
I'm caramelizing some onions. My apartment smells good.
Friday is being deathly slow, yes.
JZ, did you get an email from me the other day?
Let me go back and look, Perkins. The last few days have been a blur.
eta: Holy shit! Insending.
Okay, who else can rock this quiz like I did?

Seriously. Someone needs to point out to Cantalamessa that vocal criticism of the way specific people behaved, much of which is coming from within the church, is not quite the same as bigoted persecution of a minority group. Plus, maybe not the most politic move when the church has also issued a few apologies for contributing to that persecution.
Perhaps in a few decades people can send a letter to the Vatican expressing their shame and remorse for their behavior, and explaining that it was an error in judgment, although their intentions were good.
