Jan will be lookin fer a long-haired, kitteh (as young as possible) as of dec 28...got any?
kitty! why a long-haired one? - Sir Shuping
it's all the mr's discrimination, not mine :) kittehs are all equal in my eyes...though i've had more short black haired cats than any other kind. - janimal
the mr. should get over his discrimination tendencies and free the kitties! :) both of mine are short hair..and obnoxious twits, but they are fun - Sir Shuping
janimal

Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie, anyone? - http://blog.kingarthurflour.com/2009...
Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie, anyone?
Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie, anyone?
Show all
"Have I convinced you? DARE you go beyond pumpkin? If so, have at it: Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie may just become your new Thanksgiving must-have." - Derrick from Bookmarklet
i've had a slice of chocolate pecan pie before...it was like heaven. - Sir Shuping
This pie looks redonkulous. - Derrick
I don't like regular pecan pie, but I love the chocolate ones. Cracker Barrel makes a good one. - Laura Lou Who
This looks interesting. I may have to try it. - ha3rvey (chee-la-key-les)
There's a lot going on in making the crust (which isn't my speciality), but I will sho nuff buy a premade crust and pour this chocolaty pecany goodness inside and toss it in the oven. - Derrick
*salivates* - janimal
I wonder how it would be with a graham cracker crust? - Laura Lou Who
oh...i need a decent pie tin...this just gives me an excuse to buy one! - Sir Shuping
I like the comment (on the recipe page) by the person who didn't even bother with the crust. Heh. - Laura Lou Who
Laura - Barry's figment: Just checked. No Cracker Barrel in my zip (07302). Oh Well! - Tony C
I have made this before. I add bourbon to mine sometimes. - Gunny doesn't side-hug™ from fftogo
Tony C, guess you'll have to make your own! - Laura Lou Who
I'd rather eat a pumpkin pie than a pecan pie, and I don't like pumpkin pie. Yes, they revoked my "Born in Georgia" card as soon as I admitted not liking pecan pie. - cecily
Cecily, you're not alone. I don't like most pecan pie for the same reason I don't like pumpkin pie. They're too blasted sweet. - ha3rvey (chee-la-key-les)
I'm tempted to make this pie. I know I've said it before, but I love this blog. - Katy S
Derrick, will you come to GA and make this for me? *bats lashes* - Laura Lou Who
that is a sin..............but yes please ...got whip cream? - VAL D. Zone
HOLY YES - Josh Haley
OMG! Yes please! - mlazopoulou
Derrick -- that's just not right! How is one to resist such a delectable treat? - Jennifer McDaniel
I think my keyboard just shorted out from the drool. - s t e v e
That looks delicious. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
That looks like the best darn pecan brownie ever...in a crust. - April Russo (app103)
Considering this for Thanksgiving. - Laura Lou Who
One of our assigned dishes is "dessert that isn't pumpkin pie." (Mom already has that one.) - Laura Lou Who
I don't do nuts in baked goods (as is well known) but this looks good. - Jason Toney
JT, I stole this from Anna. I think she made it for faux-Thanksgiving last week. - Derrick
*BUMP* - Derrick
Now that looks really good. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Yeah, no thanks...when I want a pecan pie, I want pie chock full of pecans (not just on the top) and pecan filling so I can taste the pecan-y goodness and nothing else...except for the whipped cream. - Alex Scoble
I feel for Cassie. I really do. - Derrick
*drool* - Bryce Roney
:-)~ - Anna Haro
OMG I forgot about this. Drool, the sequel! - Jim Hearts FF
i may do this when i make the annual Xmas pecan pies this year. - Joe Silence is not dead
I have 2 pounds of pecans in my freezer and would love to use them for a couple of these. - Curtiss Grymala
@Alex: i always use way more pecans than the recipe calls for. - Joe Silence is not dead
Now I want a piece of pecan pie. - Alex Scoble

DO IT. if you ever need advice on ESL teaching and where to do it, i can hook you up ;) - janimal

heart Mark Leggott with me! so great. - janimal
I didn't even notice. ha! - Kårín Dalzĭel
I am *so* tired of SD touting their API and their *wonderful* features. We have a lower-level SD product, and what SA fails to mention is that it will definitely cost you to have access to that API or those great features. If they spent so many years perfecting the user experience, why not make those things standard? RSS? We don't have it in our ILS. Permalinks? Nope. Spelling... more... - dr. princess ninja val

Yikes! Glad you're OK! - josh neff, geek at large

anyone have a ukulele they want to sell me?
Well if I get it in our annual Yankee Swap I'll gladly give it to you for free but you'll have to wait until after 12/31. - Mlibrarianus
w00t! (i'll think of things to swap with you! need anything canadian?) - janimal
Hmm - can you take back the cold weather? That would be perfect swap for me. - Mlibrarianus
You seem to like Astro Boy & the ukulele, perhaps you know of where I might be able to find uke tabs for the Astro Boy theme song? (the very old one!) - Monica Ford
hahaha funny thing is, i've looked! can't find them...i have a uke, but dont' know of any others...will keep my ears open though...and craigslist might be helpful! I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones. John Cage US composer of avant-garde music (1912 - 1992) - janimal from email
lol Wow, thanks for responding so quickly! I actually found a video on youtube of someone performing it (http://www.youtube.com/watch...) and there's apparently a japanese songbook that has the tabs (http://eastisuke.blogspot.com/2006...) thanks again for your help!! - Monica Ford
sweet! that's AWEsome, man. (that John Cage quote above is on my email sig. and i didn't realize it would copy over) - janimal

going to trampoline hall tonight. so fun! http://www.trampolinehall.net/
I have to admit, I was really hoping this was a big hall with lots of trampolines in it, and you were going for an evening of free-wheeling bouncing. It sounded therapeutic. - andrew colgoni
omg i have to find this...or make this happen...if i do, you're the first partner in crime ;) - janimal
I was hoping for the same thing! I smell a business opportunity! - RudĩϐЯaЯïan

am i the only one mega-creeped out by donny & marie?
if you mean the osmonds I've not seen them in years. - Ian May
We used to watch them as a family every... Saturday? night. I cannot remember squat about it. Clearly these are blocked memories due to trauma. - Michael W. May from twhirl
No more creeped out than by midget clowns - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
HAHA. they're hosting some show on tv right now called "rediscovered". we had their dolls growing up. i made barbie make out with donny a lot. - janimal
I remember they had a talk show when I was growing up...they were really, really bad too - Sir Shuping
I seldom watch TV, and it's not something I'd switch it on for, I must admit - Ian May

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (video game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"E.T. is seen as marking the beginning of Atari's downfall and is often viewed as one of the biggest commercial failures in video gaming history, as well as the worst video game ever made.[1] E.T. was a contributing factor to Atari's massive financial losses during 1983 and 1984, and a glut of unsold copies of the game helped contribute to the video game crash of 1983. As a result of overproduction, hundreds of thousands of unsold cartridges were buried in a New Mexico landfill." - Lindsay from Bookmarklet
But I love it anyway: http://friendfeed.com/e... - Lindsay
But I'm thankful for E.T. itself for bringing me my wife, Drew Barrymore. - Shawn Farner
I loved that game. - MiniMage TKDteacher of FF
You mean I'm not the only one, MiniMage??? - Lindsay
Ha! We got this game as a gift, played it once and then used it to prop up a table leg in the garage. - Admiral Anika
omg yes i can sing you the theme song: "doo dooo do do do do do dooo. do doo dooo do do do do do dooo." hahaha you had to find the magic place in the forest to phone home. - janimal
I remember liking this game too. Not the best game ever, but fun. - DGentry
I liked this game. And *beat* it. One of the first that I actually ever beat. - Derrick
I loved this game. - Mark Wilson
Steve Isaacs
so great. - Melissa Maskevich
I like this so much, every time someone favorites it, I [like] it again. - Derrick
crappy qual, but i love this one too! http://www.youtube.com/watch... - janimal
Considering my fave part of Forrest Gump is when he "ruins" the roommate's bathrobe, this video is always so right up my alley... - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
I was stone-faced watching this, then I lost it after the first jizz.... It is a bit Conchords-ish as some people had mentioned. - Kamilah Gill

Aare woo mah fwiend? - Michael R. Bernstein
MINI WIENER DOG!!!!! - Lainie
These photos remind me of when our miniature dachshunds were puppies. Full-grown they're less than 7 lbs each, but this is a reminder about how small they were. - Sally: gift wrapper
Mine lived to be 15, he was a good dog. Our birthdays were 4 days apart! - Daniel J. Pritchett

How Many Lip Products Are in Your Purse Right Now? - http://bellasugar.com/2614427
How Many Lip Products Are in Your Purse Right Now?
I have three - Shevonne from Bookmarklet
One Burt's Bees lip balm. - Yolanda
That's worth like five lip prodcuts! Those are awesome! - Shevonne
3 also. A brown gloss, a pink gloss and a lip balm. The essentials. - Carmen
I have 3. But I left my good purse at the office :( - Mark Wilson
3. One tube of lipstick, and two tubes of Chapstick (one empty one, and one of the shimmer kind). - Penguin It's Cold Outside
I hate when that happens, Mark. - Yolanda
1. - Rochelle
Purse? What's that? ;P - Admiral Anika
no purse, but 3 in my makeup bag - mandyvan
1 - don't ask about how many are in my drawers, though. Or nail stuff - recently gave about 15 away at work - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
cherry lip balm and some gloss. those are my essentials. - Dee S.
I have a Burt's Bees lip balm in my nightstand, and another in my desk at work. Does that count? - Derrick
1 on my bathroom counter, none in my purse. I don't like the way lip stuff feels, unless they're chapped and I'm using some form of lip balm, but that's rare. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
NONE! Also: No purse! I do have a stick of chapstick in my briefcase though. - Sparky
I'm horrified. I dug TEN different lip products from my purse just now. One Burt's Bees lip balm, one tinted organic grapeseed oil lip balm, five different lipsticks, one lip stain, and two tinted lip-plumping shimmer glosses that are matched to two of the lipsticks. I clearly need to stay away from Sephora for a while... - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
I also clearly need to clean out my purse...upon further inspection, I've just found three mini mascaras, four pairs of tweezers (but no mirror), an a $20 bill crammed deep into a corner. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
you're one of those guys who nicks your partner's lip balm? - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
@Derrick - Yep - Shevonne
One in my pocket (sorry no purse), Blistex! - Nicholas Kreidberg
Is that a Lip Product in your pocket or are you just glad to see me? :-) - Morgan Haley
ba dum bum - Yolanda
3 -
1 lipstick, 2 eyeshadows, eyeliner, brow liner... I switch out the shadow and lipstick daily depending on what I am wearing. - Lindsay
Well I have some Burt's Bees "Lifeguards Choice" in my pocket. Although, I do not have a man-purse. ;-P - Mathew A. Koeneker
Pockets are a man's purse, so it counts! - Shevonne
So are backpacks in my world at least. :-) - Mathew A. Koeneker
none in any purses (i have a dozen or so). one in diaper bag, ten billion in makeup bag - InPerpetualMotion(Gina k)
no purse, laptop briefcase (softsided techie bag) = 3 (chapstick, neutral color lip liner pencil and lipstick) I don't wear makeup nearly as much as I used to - Susan Beebe
i'm so glad i'm not the only make-up addicted librarian - janimal
janimal
O K that's it. something's gotta change. am nursing bruised toe from man who stomped on it to cut me OUT OF the subway cue at yonge transfer
always find it hard to believe that people are that eager to get to work - bob
Welcome to Toronto. - John Dupuis
Boooooo! - Ladybug Heather
i'm totally changing my morning routine to avoid the 8:10 to 8:30 madness even though i'll get to work too early (and will use newly acquired derby hip checking skills accordingly ;p) - janimal
I thought Canadians were polite? Maybe they were just all afraid I had a gun. - Jàson Puçkett

where's this from? izzit stout? - janimal

FriendFeed question: Before going to a concert, live show, whatever... the day of the show - do you like to saturate yourself with listening to tracks of the band you are about to see? or do you think this is overkill?
I actually love doing this. Makes the show a lot more fun for me when I can sing along - even to newer stuff :) - Melissa
I like to listen to a bunch of the band's music before hand so I know there songs. At the shows I usually go to, if you don't know the lyrics and aren't very familiar with the music you'll stick out. - Brandon Titus
I'm usually so amped I can't help but do it. Probably do it for a couple days after the show too. ;) - Derrick
YES (to saturation) - janimal
I would - Michael W. May
I can't saturate myself enough. - Andrew Trinh
I like to listen to get me in the mood for the show later. - Katie: Whelmed Overly
yeah, that's definitely the case for me...but usually AFTER the show I go on a hiatus of that particular band/artist's material for a little while - Louis Simoneau
Yes to listening before and savoring after. :) - Ayşe E.
I haven't been to a show in forever... need to go. - Nation Hahn
I always do this. It's definitely NOT overkill. It's usually the best way to acquaint yourself with newer material. - Mark Wilson
Nope. No matter what the show is I will listen to anything BUT on the way, and then King's X - Please Come Home Mr. Bulbous on the way home. Seriously. That album is just beyond great. It's tradition now. - Josh Haley
LD, you are a fucking asshat! - Mark Wilson
I do some light listening before the show, but it's afterwards where I just lay it on thick because I don't want the night to stop. :) - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
@Melissa Knowing the songs by heart before going to a concert or stage production makes it so much better :) - Brandon
i always listen to the same album before i go to any concert. Spring Session M by Missing Persons. It was my first concert by myself back in the day and is still a kick ass, get you in the mood to rock/boogie/shake it/drink no matter who you are getting ready to go see. And it's tradition after all. So there. - Morgan Haley
I listen to tracks before the concert but not afterwards. The ride home is anything but what I just listened to for hours. - David Cook
I was going to mention that Morgan, but now that you're on here more I can let you speak for yourself. Spring Session M has been very good to us. - Josh Haley
I usually listen to other music. - Mathew™ one of a kind
I don't, mostly because I am a radio listener - RAPatton
I'll listen to related music the day of, perhaps some artists who've worked with the band I'm going to see, but never the band itself. Afterward I'll some ambient or soft classical to wind down after a particularly hard show. - Rob Haas
Zee.
