Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Huh - it never would occur to me to think of the Taj Mahal as a religious monument, except in an incidental kind of way because it's a mausoleum and end-of-life rituals tend to be religiously based. (I'm sure some if not most of the decorative text is scripture, but that's like saying a gravestone with a Bible verse on it is a church. Which is silly.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
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.
I got that e-mail from my mom! I was like WTF. I mean, she sends a couple stupid chain e-mails a week, but they're usually just dumb jokes or hoaxes I have to discredit with Snopes links.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Only Halloween plans I have are handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. As for the rest of the weekend, we're planning on going to the rally on the Mall.(Yeah, us and 200,000 of our closest friends :) )

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Okay, so I posted about Lush. Feel free to distribute links and repost. I also emailed angry asian man and racebender.com. Who else should I talk to?

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
SUCCESS!
After 3 trips to the construction site at the middle school (1 by my dad, 2 by me), I got to talk to the foreman. At first he thought we wanted a ridiculous amount of fill so he was hesitant since he'll have to fill some of it back onsite when the time comes. However, when we got down to brass tacks he saw it was a very small amount of the ginormous pile on the construction site. So I get to pick up a pickup truck's worth on Monday and we can fill our raised beds without paying a ridonkulous amount of $$$ for potting soil.
I really hate going past "No Unauthorized People" signs so this was very hard for me to do and I almost didn't do it today. I'm glad I did and glad he said yes. Yay!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nice job, Liese.
And go you, Spidra.
For my part, NSM on the mushrooms and potatoes. I mean, it's not bad, just not all it could be. I didn't clean the mushrooms well enough, and cooked everything at wrong temperatures or something. Eh. I mean, I'm eating it, but what a waste!

That's too bad, Jesse. I hate it when I get all excited about something I'm making and it doesn't turn out right.

That's partly what I get for Cooking While Hungry.

What I get for Not Cooking While Hungry is that I just bought and inhaled a bag of Cheeto puffs. Oy.
