Note to self: be sure to wash hands after making blackened tofu and before wiping nose. Oww. I think I inhaled some blackening spice mixture.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Mmm, both my current digital P&S cameras are Canons. 2 seconds actually seems pretty slow, a lot of lag time between pressing the button and getting the shot. Maybe I should clarify, I take a lot of action shots (cats, birds, gyrating rockstars) as well as static shots. I'm annoyed when the cat has walked away or the bird has flown off or the rockstar has landed before the camera decides it's time to take the picture. I really should do more actual research on this, but I kinda got burned out on buying cameras and being disappointed. Also, I'm cheap, wherein may lie the problem.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I haven't ever noticed much lag time on my camera (a Lumix DMC-FZ7). It's not just a little party camera though, its primary feature is a 12X optical zoom, as these have historically tended to be my targets:
Now, of course, it's this:
Either way, I imagine I'd have some trouble with any significant lag time too.

Is there some reason a pharmacy would make pill capsules with an extremely bitter outer coating? I've run into pills that were bitter before, but this is the first time I recall taking capsules that had a strong taste in the brief second before I can wash them down with water.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I've had that happen recently with some of my generics, Matt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You might as well empty them out and not take the capsule part, no?

Yeah, I always figured that the brand names charged you five dollars more for the candy-coating.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
Seconding billytea's vote for the Lumix-- I have a DMC-FZ18, and it's very fast and takes great pictures.

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

Wouldn't that affect the rate of delivery? It's factored in how the capsule lining dissolves when the drug is dissipating into your system.
I am having basic colour theory problems. Can someone not color-tone-blind (as in, nothing clinical, I just don't *get* it) help me with the basics of choosing highlight and shadow colours? I can fake it, but actual artists look at my choices with disdain.
I'm willing to crib off the colour wheel for the rest of my life, if I can just work out exactly where to go.

I don't know, but my grandmother grinds all of her pills and empties out the capsules. I don't know if the prescriptions take that into account.
