What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

They've been doing television commercials for decades, P-Cow.

Seriously? I have never seen one before!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Seriously? I have never seen one before!

Maybe you weren't paying attention when they were blathering about Dianetics, and - as bon notes - showing off a volcano for extremely mysterious (space clams!) reasons.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I don't think I've ever seen a Scientology commercial.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was going to say I haven't either, but I've totally seen a million Dianetics commericials.

Oh! Those Victorian fonts are delish.

I spent my day mostly consumed with programming the project due Thursday, making very little progress until the evening, when the problem (getting a Google geolocation service that would derive a zipcode from a lat/long value to work) finally fell into place, both conceptually and actually.

Needless to say, much of the rest of my life (getting a job, etc.,) has fallen by the wayside.

You guys! I found the fleece-lined tights on sale at Target over the weekend, and they are so awesome! Cozy and warm.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Kat, no news on the job front. I need to get more resumes out and thank you email to the interview people (I forgot to get cards from them, so now I have to call to get their names, ugh).

Today though, I have a GI dr appt at 9. I am pretty sure he is gonna say I have to have a colonoscopy which I am not at all wanting.

Everyone says the prep for the colonoscopy is way way worse than the actual procedure, FWIW.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I've had my bladder scoped. I fear not the colonoscopy scope. There was, however, no laxative nonsense.
