I need to buy a blender. Does anyone have a blender to evangelize?

I'm going to evangelize the VitaMix. Seriously. It's an intense hardcore blender but it purees EVERYTHING. Like you could put a cell phone in and grind to dust.

You can use it to pulverize whole grains into flour.

You can make soup in it because it goes fast enough to heat food.

The clean up is amazingly easy (water + 3 drops of soap = clean!).

And the motor on it is amazingly sturdy.

Plus they have a 7 year complete replacement policy.

We use ours intensively every single day for Grace and haven't had an issue (knock on wood).

They are extremely pricey, but I want to get one for my parents' place.

This blender easily makes the smoothest smoothies ever. It's what they have at the local juice store. highly highly highly recommend.

Ow. On the way home from the mall, I was chewing gum and my filling came out. (It doesn't currently hurt, and I stopped at the drug store and got some goop to stick in it, but I'm not sure how well I'm going to eat or drink until it's fixed).

More annoyingly, I called my dentist and their office is closed on Monday! And I have a work trip on Tuesday. Grrrr. Left a message on the emergency number, we'll see what they say.

If the local theater says Company is playing at 12:00p.m, do you think that's noon or midnight?

Noon. Midnight is 12 a.m.

That's what I thought, but noon on Sunday is a weird time for a special showing.

That's when the theater closest to me is playing it, too. And I can't go, of course.

Midnight seems more for cult classics and blockbusters openings, though, not the crowd who would see Company.

Noon makes sense to me, you can switch the print (or whatever they use these days) after the special showing and just lose a matinee of whatever's usually on that screen.
