I uses to make baked beans with bacon on top. It's been a while, bit now I want to, just so I can weave a bacon lattice.

"The new cast is still disconcerting. By the end of the original Trek, the actors were a collection of paunches and hairpieces; these guys are so trim and tender-skinned, they're like the Baby Looney Tunes."

Lol. Yes, mommy has hypermesis and has been home for the past month with no end in sight. Other than the constant vomiting everyone is healthy.

I just saw your pregnancy whine post and I think all of downtown Sac heard me say, "Wait, she's pregnant?" (scroll back scroll back scroll back, find announcement) Wow! Congrats to you and Scott.

"Zooey Deschanel was nearly unrecognizable at Monday's 2013 Met Gala, where she hit the red carpet without her trademark bangs. Though she looked stunning in her seersucker Tommy Hilfiger gown, it was her hair that made us do a serious double-take, as she looked like a total, ahem, New Girl with her signature blunt bangs styled to the side."

"A 75-year-old resident of a New Jersey senior citizen housing complex is suspected of running a prostitution ring that employed some elderly residents as sex workers, NBC 4 New York has learned. The suspect, James Parham, 75, was also accused, along with Cheryl Chaney, 66, of allowing residents and visitors to use crack in their apartments, police said."

Kid bro called back and we got to talk for like an hour. He transitions his company command on Friday and flies home on the 22nd. MY BROTHER'S COMING HOME IN A FEW WEEKS! *runs around screaming*
also he's the cutest kid ever. don't matter how old or war-seasoned or that he could probably strangle me to death with one hand, he still can't say "breakfast" and it's the most adorable thing in the world!
- t-ra: not givin up
all y'all liking this post makes my day even brighter still. thanks!
- t-ra: not givin up
I've got a brother I love and enjoy spending time with. :) Now I'm curious how he says breakfast. :D
- Running Slow
ha. he's always had difficulty with hard consonant sound combinations, so he can't manage the K and F in a row. comes out like "breffast" but also with a random clicking sound to get the K in there somehow. crushingly cute.

The best part of this past weekend...aside from finally getting to meet Eivind IRL...was seeing my best friend truly, genuinely, beautifully happy. I am so thankful that her and Eivind found each other. They're two souls that were meant to be together, and it shows in every little way.
The greatest thing ever was meeting Eivind in SF right before he went to meet Kelli and just KNOWING that he was about to fall for her madly.

Yeah, plus the idea of having to imitate a normal human reaction to things.

So much this. I had it for about six months in high school. So frightening, yet so dead. Since then, whenever I say to myself, "I'm so depressed," I generally know that actually I am just sad, dissatisfied, and discouraged, because I don't actually have that scary complete lack of feeling that I had in high school.

This was difficult to read, but I needed to read it. There are some weekends when I get home from work on Friday, and make my next venture outdoors on Monday to go to work again. [TMI. :( Bad habit.]

That made me cry. It's different from what I've experienced, except for the self-hatred. I've never felt nothing. Dunno if that's better or worse.

It kind of freaks people out when I say it, but a year like that is what drove me to finally record an album. I got so far into not caring that I figured I didn't need to care anymore about neurotic things or fear of the future.
- Spidra Webster
A few times I've tentatively touched on not caring, but I never got to armored level. It's mostly been the self-bullying and dead fish. I think I've never been as low so I've never had such extremity, but I've been down so long I've learned to muck through.

When you factor in that a significant portion of those members vehemently disagree with their political arm, it becomes even lower.

...but they're organized, and their interest is pretty clear-cut and laser-focused: keep your hands off my guns. probably easier to galvanize those 5million (still a large number) into a loud voice, and a powerful force. Philosophically, to me this seems to be a problem with democracy: there are so many interests, competing and complementary, how do you organize these groups effectively through compromise and coalition? Tough job.

How many babies have "we" had on FF? Let's see: The Toddler formerly known as babyx, MellyBaby, The Louis Gray Project(?), & Jandy's New Release spring immediately to mind. I know I likely missed some since my tenure here. And there were likely others before I got here. Feel free to chime in below.
Thanks #joe. It was MC and Scott's announcement that prompted the post. Twins, Jason? Belated congrats. And (if you don't mind me saying), good lord you must be sleepy.

I was just looking out my kitchen window and noticed that they sprung up over night. Then I looked up adn down the road and noticed no one else had any. I thought, "That's weird...OH." Yeah, I like dandelions too! I may spread some camomile seeds out there if I can find them.

At least not until you find out how deep of an aquifer you draw from, and in what general direction it is flowing.

I have a weed popper I can send up with Smiley. Think of all the fun he can have.
- sglassme
He do love any yard job that allows him to stare at the neighbors.

My mom uses corn gluten to control dandelions. Well, that and digging up dandelions, but that last one requires, like, moving and digging and stuff, and may be best left to the professionals.

What I have is something like this http://www.homedepot.com/p... . Step and pull. Step and pull. Really builds up the thigh muscles. I have a garden hose/sprayer that I done ruint that I was going to see if he could unscrew. Maybe I'll make it a two-fer with the popper.
- sglassme
I actually don't mind the dandelions. I think they're pretty. Neighbors may hate my "Typhoid Mary" yard though.
- Sarah G.
You can make dandelion wine. And harvest the greens.
- sglassme
I once tried eating dandelion leaves and they were super bitter. Someone told me you had to do this that and the other and I promptly gave up because it sounded like work. Nowadays I still hate dandelions but I can't be bothered to do anything about them.

Just spent the last 45 minutes or so watching clips of Chris Broussard on OTL today and reading articles responding to what he said. My initial reaction was to cringe and shake my head. I like Chris and I like his NBA reporting. I disagree with what he said about Jason Collins not being a Christian. Watching just that small clip that's circulating around various blogs and websites is...

We "knew" someone in men sports was going to "unmask" and i guess we should have known that sports being "life on steroids" the announcement and pushback would be ummm big....

A black dog is the name given to a being found primarily in the folklores of the British Isles. The black dog is essentially a nocturnal apparition, often said to be associated with the Devil, and its appearance was regarded as a portent of death. It is generally supposed to be larger than a normal dog, and often has large, glowing eyes.[1] It is often associated with electrical storms (such as Black Shuck's appearance at Bungay, Suffolk),[2] and also with crossroads, places of execution and ancient pathways.[1][3][4]

The first appearance of Sirius Black in the HP movies looked a lot like this. Subsequent appearances had him looking just like a large wolfhound...

This is the first line in the chapter on the interwar period in this volume covering Norwegian history after 1914 :)
- Eivind
Sounds like a sentence from a 6th grader's report.
- April Russo
any space of time without a large-scale war can be called an interwar period.
- Smaller Joe Silence
On the surface it seems like a straight-forward or even simplistic statement, but when you consider the human desire to achieve a return to normalcy as quickly as possible, there is a lot of subtle significance to such a statement. Particularly in the case of the U.S., where we were essentially untouched (domestically) by both world wars. Even the extended wars in Iraq and Afghanistan...

I felt the same way, Mark. At first glance I just smiled at the silly, obvious statement. Then I went back and thought 'hey, that's actually pretty significant to this people's history of Norway.' I'll have to keep that in mind as I try to gauge their mindset :)
- Eivind
Also, to all of you who read Norwegian, I really recommend this new work on the history of Norway :) It's mostly done a really good job in seeing the history from the perspective of the common men and women of the different time periods. Pre-history to 2011.

She laid down on her belly at the top of the stairs, feet in the air, looking down. I asked what she was doing. "Watching!!!"
