Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

At least one person had a TSA security person tell them that their DC driver's license wasn't good enough to allow them to board a plane. It's actually happened at least twice that I've heard of.

In other news, I think I'll refrain from going any further south than ... Virginia, perhaps.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I went to renew registrations and realized I hadn't read the notice and needed a smog check. Got it done but, man, some years I can't help but miss Oregon's multiyear and cheap car registration.

Trader Joe's had (oh, please, don't be past tense)

Gotta love message bills. "Hm, it violates the U.S. Constitution, and our Constitution is subordinate to that, but what the hell! The taxpayers will love us spending time and money on bills that would be laughed out of the Supreme Court!"

Trader Joe's had (oh, please, don't be past tense) Hatch Valley Salsa that I grabbed a jar of when I saw. It's holy mother of yum amazing. But when I was grocery shopping on Sunday, no salsa.

The guy did point me to frozen bags of partially processed (fire-roasted and chopped but not actually cooked, so they need to be brought to at least some temp, maybe 165. The bag says.) Hatch chiles. I grabbed four. He laughed and said they weren't going anywhere. Which made me paranoid so I snagged two more. I'm going to get a big chunk of pork and let them get to know each other in a slow cooker for a while.

How so delicious, Hatch Valley?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That sounds delicious, Cass. I almost bought a jar of the Hatch salsa but I was worried it would be too hot for my kids, so I opted to get the one they eat instead. sigh. Low on the list of sacrifices I make for my kids, but still....

Oh that sounds good, Cass. I think I got some of the salsa last time I was at TJ's.

No thinking about work while you are gone, sarameg!
