So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

She's studying to be a SCIENCE TEACHER.

I just slapped my forehead so hard I'm sure some of my brains landed in her head.

Wanna borrow my cluestick? It's got a nice heft...

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

ita, trying popping popcorn in bacon grease instead of oil or butter

I air pop. I may reconsider that. My battle against grease is conflicted.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Maybe instead of a cluestick, it is time to use a clueglock. Lorne: "You were never going to be part of the solution."

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Popping popcorn in bacon grease! I am reading too tired and too fast and read it as pooping popcorn in bacon grease and I just thought, YUCK.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Will Puppycat do puppy playdates?

Sadly, I don't think so. She's not keen on dogs. And hisses at other cats who are not Kittenish. (She's a joy when I've had to board her, I am sure.)

Well, in a sense, they did know it was coming, and they planned for it fantastically. They have checklists and drills and emergency management plans all over the place.

Ding, ding.

I am so over people being stupid.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

(doesn't everyone keep their bacon grease in a bowl in the fridge to cook with?! I am so country still in some ways)

Mine is a classy little glass jar. Which I consider a step up from the coffee can on the fridge of old.

How long does bacon grease keep in the fridge, anyway?

I don't know, it doesn't stay around my house for any length of time.

And it gets all spattery and messy and I have to clean a pan. No thank you.

psst! cook it in the oven on a sheet pan lined with foil. No splatter, and you just throw away the foil.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think I just saw the second stupidest comment on the event, Aims. @@

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

Interesting.

In a 1990 report, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, an independent agency responsible for ensuring the safety of the country’s power plants, identified earthquake-induced diesel generator failure and power outage leading to failure of cooling systems as one of the “most likely causes” of nuclear accidents from an external event.

I cook eggs, potatoes and hashbrowns in it, and add a dollop to my WT broccoli cheese soup (most of a bag of chopped broccoli, package of Uncle Ben's Chicken and Broc Rice mix, and package of cream cheese. Use twice as much water as the rice package says. I sometimes go half water, half chicken stock and add a dollop or two of bacon grease for flavor.

My dad used to waterproof his work boots with bacon grease back in the day.
