A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Mmm, pumpkin pancakes sound delicious!

I would like to go eat at the Farmer's Market, but this being the gayborhood, it doesn't start until 11AM. I suppose I could go eat somewhere else and THEN go to the farmer's market.

Lunch today was red lentil kofte on warm flatbread with tzatziki, tomato and cucumber (both from my garden.) YUM!

Speaking of cucmber, I thought I had four left to eat...I have seven! And still a few more on the vine. I guess every meal has to use cucumber and tomato.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

And I was going to post this silly status on FB, but I anticipated scornful replies from non-Buffista people on my friends list, about HOW can I talk about pancakes and comics on this day, of all days.

Post your status, and if anyone gives you shit, tell them, "I'm sorry, but I didn't realize the terrorists won."

I didn't realize that back in the '70s, on Sept 10, there was a strip marking B.D.'s birthday. I love the history in the strip.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Maybe I should avoid Facebook today.

I'd like to avoid everything, but we're singing at a ceremony. Hopefully it should only be about 20 minutes. Which is also good, as it is outdoors and unshaded in 95-degree weather.

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

Connie, I was just about to post that. Teppy nailed it. I finally realized why I've been SO annoyed by the coverage (since effing Thursday).

Even the fucking Cooking Channel had one of those annoying things in the corner that says "9/11 Remembers" or some stupid shit like that.

From a review on Amazon for Dragon Natural Speaking:

This product would not set up with my system. I do not have a unique system. It is an off-the-shelf PC with no erotic additions.
