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.

There's supposed to be a lot of Muslim texts and stuff decorating it, but whatever, as P-C says it's the freaking Taj Mahal. We're making a special day trip to Agra to see it for fuck's sake.
I was talking with someone in the office about something stupid Christine O'Donnell said and she was offended and read me an e-mail she'd gotten. In it, the sender had compared the U.S.'s treatment of illegal aliens (saying that they come here, get welfare, free healthcare, free education, etc.) with that of other countries, pointing out that in these other countries - among them Iran, North Korea, Cuba - anyone entering the country illegally is jailed at best.
So I've been wondering - why is it that some people think we should emulate these countries?
People are stupid.
Some are ... but not the people here! which is one reason I keep coming back!
People are stupid.
Yes.
I got some shiitake mushrooms tonight, and saw a recipe for a mushroom-potato gratin, but am feeling kind of lazy. If I just sautee the mushrooms and potatoes and melt some gruyere over, that will be delicious, right? Just checking.

Ooo Toddson, that's a perfect response. I genuflect in your direction.
yum! I'd eat it! (but then, I like mushrooms - except, oddly, portobellows - and melting cheese over just about anything makes it edible if not delicious)

Yes it will. mmmmmmm.
ION, where are those garsh dang grading fairies when you need them?
They ran off with the underwear gnomes?
