Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I guess only reason for going in would be to impress people who actually don't care.
Yeah, that is me today.
I only came in because it's much easier to yell at people for information when you are physically present.
Coming into the office doesn't give me this benefit. The people I need to yell at today are in Salt Lake City, Portland, and Redding.
The people I need to yell at today are in Salt Lake City
It's a nice day today, here, maybe I could take a road trip for you?
I don't think I need to yell at anyone today! So far. And I just had my coworker who did make it in forward my phone here.
Hec, dear, this made me think of you: [link] what with the bubblegum and all.
Thanks for the notice. Without Don Kirshner, not only would there have been no televised Rock Concert, but also no Monkees and no Archies.
I recently rediscovered my tape of The 1980 Floor Show, when Kirshner let Bowie program an entire hour long episode. It included Bowie dueting with Marianne Faithful on "I Got You Babe" while she was wearing a backless nun's habit that left her ass bare. No, she did not turn to the camera.
What's up at work, amych?
SuziQ- who in Portland needs to be yelled at? my voice is coming back nicely.
The quinoa conversation is amusing me. Last night's dinner was a quinoa salad I love to make with lentils, feta, and arugula in it. Yums. Strangely enough, though quinoa and arugula can both be bitter, somehow combining them with lentil, lemon, and olive oil neutralizes all that.
Hair is now dyed and greys are properly banished for a couple more weeks. I need to move on to grading.
It's probably the lemon that reduces the bitterness.
The pretty pretty snow finally switched over to rain here, which is kind of too bad. But possibly better for the commuting, if it stays well above freezing...
The bitterness of quinoa is a survival adaptation, according to Trader Joe's and Wikipedia.
Quinoa in its natural state has a coating of bitter-tasting saponins, making it unpalatable. Most quinoa sold commercially in North America has been processed to remove this coating. This bitterness has beneficial effects during cultivation, as the plant is unpopular with birds and thus requires minimal protection.
I like my grains with pluck.
And protein.
