Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And it was pretty easy and quick! Cleaning up the powdered sugar was maybe the hardest part.

I was skeptical when I read "buttercream" but mascarpone with sugar and cream and ginger sounds delicious.

I actually used cream cheese because I am cheap and love cream cheese.

Thanks to current media's depiction of Vikings, I was SUPER surprised to learn the average height of a male Viking was 5'7" (and 5'3" for women).

Wasn't everybody shorter back then? I still don't know if it means they towered over people or not.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

As far as historical BAMFs go, I'm partial to the Scythians. Herodotus wrote about how they would drink from skulls of their enemies, and there is archeological evidence to back this up. Also, around 10% of the graves they find of are women, fully decked out in warrior garb.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh, yeah, Scythians are cool.

Whee, my new universal remote works with the Blu-ray player! I think I'll have an old-fashioned Thanksgiving X-Files marathon!

Spent the day with Jon B. and FAQ!Wife and the AWB. Fun was had as we introduced them to the GG Park carousel and I won AWB's undying affection by giving him my windup Syndrome (Incredibles) happy meal toy.

Tomorrow we get Emmett and EM and me attempting magical feats of delicious mushrooms.

Make sure you don't mess up with delicious feats of magical mushrooms.
