I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Isn't there a kind of mold or smut or something that grows on corn that is a delicacy in its own right? I forget what it's called, assuming it exists as a real thing outside my imagination.

Never mind - misread what the post was asking.

It is called corn smut. Which is an inherently funny name. [link]

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I've decided to work out which fruit I like, for values of fruit that equal apple. So I'm doing a one by one test, organic, since that's closest to the truth, I figure.

I'm pretty much just a Granny Smith fan, although Galas are fine. If you can get them, Pink Ladies are lovely (and their flesh is pink!). And, of course, Macouns, which I have only ever had in New England in October: they are not shipped commercially. The McIntoshes I buy at Farmer Joe's don't taste like the ones I used to get as a child...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is amazing! I am aware of huitlacoche, but had no idea that's what it is. Yikes.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Political quote of the day:

A new Public Policy Polling survey shows finds that 49% of Republican voters nationally say they think that ACORN stole the election for President Obama, as compared to 52% that thought ACORN stole the 2008 election, "a modest decline, but perhaps smaller than might have been expected given that ACORN doesn't exist anymore."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh come on. Obama employs time travel to send ACORN agents from 2008 to 2012. The same way he traveled back to 1961 to plant his "birth announcement" in the Honolulu paper.

Fortunately, the American citizenry has a plan to take on this kind of lawlessness. A total of 2,972 signatures were secured for a White House petition to "Establish new legal system of motorcycle riding "judges" who serve as police, judge, jury, and executioner all in one". The petition was thus more than twice as popular as the one exhorting the White House to "Secure resources and funding, and begin construction of a Death Star by 2016".

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

In our defense, no one told us the Death Star would be filled with cherries.

Also, since the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise was retired last Saturday, that means we're going to build a new Enterprise, to be one of the new Ford -class Battlestars.
