Because books.

Where do I find a cow in LA?

That seems wide open for nasty jokes.

Steel-toed Mary Janes make me think of the little girl in The Bad Seed. Who probably would have appreciated them.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hmm. Where do I find a cow in LA?

Now I'm wondering what it'd be like if the various LA gangs raised cows. There's be gang cattle rustling and drive-by shootings of cows and kids selling milk and cheese on street corners....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Like the Delirium plushie, I have an alert on eBay for steel toed mary janes, and it really doesn't come up often. I'm surprised. Disappointed too.

Sushi poppers. I'm quite startled by Kathy Lee Gifford's reticence. It's just sushi that's probably not great.

I tried black cod sushi for the first time last week, and I need to make a note--that was damned tasty. I don't remember having seen it on menus before, but I'll definitely pick it out again. It was one of the tastiest ones in our spread. Which was pretty good. Indiana Jones has good taste.

You neglect to mention you had a pregnant sister in law from North Dakota also attending. She was all for it! :) I think you were all afraid it was made with *canned* green beans. Which would be gross.

har! we had no idea. We'd heard of this mythic "green bean casserole" from the midwest, but had no frame of reference. It was like we were anthropologists going where no black person had gone before!

What's the ecologically nice way to speed up slow drains?

I am about to buy a snake for my bathtub...plunging only gets me a few good days of drainage. When the plumber changed my taps in the bathroom sink, he said he took out a big clump of hair, and it now drains better than it ever has in the three years I've been in my place.

It's my bathroom sink, so I'm pretty sure there's nothing to plunge, unless there have been strange shenanigans in my absence.

I have baking soda and vinegar at home. If those don't work, I'll buy borax.

Have you had miso marinated black cod? It's unbeatable.

I have no idea how this black cod was prepared. It was definitely marinated in something before being made into sushi.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Where do I find a cow in LA?

This week's European Journal has a segment on abandoned horses in Ireland. Apparently, since the economic crash, you can buy a horse in Dublin (there's even a winked-at illegal open-air market!) for little more than pocket change.

Didn't have anything on cows in LA, though.
