Usually they're at least $100 at a decent place. This place is just OK, but usually they are $95 for an hour. This is $50 for 50 minutes, which I feel fine about.

Anything less than a dollar a minute is a deal. Usually I'm comfortable with 60 - 70 for an hour, up to say 110 for 90 minutes. (And the extra thirty mins is so worth it.)
Lucky! A couple of weeks ago there were dogs on the highway in Chicago like three days in a row. The last day it was this dog running on and off the Eisenhower for hours. The traffic copter had pretty much given up caring about traffic to just follow the dog. Then I had to leave for a flight and didn't find out what happened.
A week or so later they did an update. He's okay! And in foster care. And the named him Eiserhower. And I was all "I could call him Ike!"
And then I came back to sanity and realized I don't have the time or space for a dog that size with that energy, and I've lived with runner dogs before and I can't take it.
But it has made me decide that once I get back from Mexico I'm dog hunting.

Hah, yeah no way. I guess what you save on mani-pedis on the east coast you pay in massage.

Does anyone have a good recipe for "chicken leg quarters"? They are on sale for very, very cheap, but I am a breast woman. I am usually OK when I first cook the leg, but subsequent re-heatngs make me feel like I am eating my cat.

Not in Boston! It's all BS up here. I'm going to try the $30 mani-pedi place this weekend, and see if it's at all reasonable. The regular crappy places here are $35.

Sorry to hear that shrift. Didn't mean to gloat.
Oh, I didn't have a Zmayhem-type week, or anything. I've just overcommitted myself, my workload at the job is robust, my allergies are hellish, and people are being Very Wrong on the internet.

OMG, is that some kind of San Francisco thing?
A Safeway thing, maybe?
I only ask because years ago, I was visiting a friend out there, and she had 36 eggs in the fridge for the same reason! I made some awesome devilled eggs that weekend. With a variety of flavors.
Tell me more of these flavor varieties.

$35 is cheap around here, but findable. I've never seen it less. And they mostly don't even do the razor!

Well, the French people (and me) will tell you the leg quarters are a better cut of meat. I usually would just smother them in fresh salsa and broil them. But you can also broil them in a mix of Worcesthire and mustard. That's good.
What flavors do you like?
