I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm thinking about a burrito for dinner.

Oh wait, I should not have a burrito. I have plenty of finger foods to eat at home.

I'm under the weather and asked Tim to stop by the cheap Chinese place and bring me egg drop soup. Also maybe shrimp in lobster sauce.

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

I've got a four-bulb chandelier in my living room. Two of the bulbs were not working. I just got up on a ladder and unscrewed one of the dead bulbs. This one was, in fact, dead -- the filament was clearly broken. But when I removed it from the fixture, the other "dead" bulb turned on. I thought maybe it was just slightly unscrewed, and when I removed the other one, it jiggled it into place, so I tried screwing it in tighter. The whole glass bulb part came away in my hand, leaving the metal base of the bulb still screwed in. What am I supposed to do now?

potato.

Seriously, shove a potato over the broken part of the bulb and screw it out.

Hil, do you have a potato or other veggie/fruit with a similar texture?

If so: make sure the light is turned off, obviously. Cut the potato/whatever in half. Stick the cut part of the potato (not the peel side, I mean) firmly against the metal base. You should be able to use the tater for leverage to unscrew it.

Turn it off and use a potato to get the broken end out.
