I use a combined CI/Alton Brown method. I don't normally like baked goods that use oil, because they often end up having an oily feel. However, I learned from CI that if you start by beating your eggs and then slowly adding the oil like you were making mayonnaise, you get an emulsion that removes the oily feel. Then I add the rest of the wet ingredients and beat the hell out of them. I mix the dry ingredients, and by mix, I mean dump the baking soda, etc., on top of the flour in the cup measure, and then adhere to Alton Brown's advice to add the dry ingredients and mix no longer than 30 seconds.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Except the evil peppermint Joe-Joe's. Yuck.
Those are my favorite!
I was wondering, Lee, thanks! Maybe if I go tomorrow they won't all be gone yet...

you should beat your eggs with the milk/yogurt separately. mix the dry stuff separately, then put them together and fold in
Yup. Eggs/butter/vanilla/pineapple poured into a well of flour/sugar/leaveners pretty much.

Yay for the good ER visit, ita! Now they just need to work on consistency.
I am doing ALL THE LAUNDRY today, while the kids demonstrate their agility at finding silly Wii cheats, like Xmas hats on all the characters. Not a bad way to start the vacation.
