I make Buckeyes. They are divine, but must be chilled before dipping (with a toothpick) into dark melted chocolate with a little paraffin for shine.

[Jim]

Oh Phil, where art thou?

[Cynthia]

Phil is not exactly on the ball right now. Maybe he went bowling.

[Jim]

Well if he is bowling and he is on the ball right now, I hope someone has a video camera.

[Cynthia]

HA.

[Phil]

I went to my son's school. There were supposed to be Vikings fighting today. Sadly, they cancelled. Apparently there's a lot of infighting currently in the Viking Guild.

Who knew?

"The feeling that you had the first time you heard 'Bohemian Rhapsody' or 'Roxanne' or 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' - that's what radio is for. Radio should not be warm milk. It should be moonshine." David Grohl in January Rolling Stone mag

I read this and I thought of Clark

[Félix]

Dipping is tricky.

I can remember a time when you could hear entire albums or album sides on FM radio or the "King Biscuit Flower Hour" or concert simulcasts (WABX here in Detroit simulcast the New York Dolls at the Michigan Palace on New Year's Eve, 1973).

Warm milk? How about curdled milk?

the "music rotation" on most stations have killed rock radio (and pop/country) for me. hearing a song more than about twice a week ruins it for me. i remember getting excited and actually calling a friend to tell him to "turn on the radio, they're playing ___________!"

btw - the only time i listen to country music is when i am getting ready to rob a bait & tackle shop and i need to get in the right frame of mind

[[deleted user]]

Until I got sick of our local crotch-rock, classic- rock FM mothership, I could be assured of hearing the Eagles, Steve Miller, and Bob Seger every morning on the way to work.

I wanted to tap a vein.

This would be just the thing (one of my personal favorites in all honesty):

Good one Jonathan. How about Willie Nelson's Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be Cowboys?

"Don't let em pick guitars and drive old trucks
Let em be doctors and lawyers and such"

[Kevin]

jonathan - yup. [rummaging around in truck looking for ski mask]

That's a good one too, Cynthia.

Then there's David Allan Coe singing "You Never Even Call Me By My Name (aka The Perfect Country & Western Song)"

I was drunk the day my Mom got outta prison.
And I went to pick her up in the rain.
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a darned old train...

[Cynthia]

Perfect.

I've had thai food way too often lately

You need a rest Catherine .

I can't decide what scent I want for tonight's bath.

[Phil]

[Sally, la reina]

I woke up in a bad bad bad mood. Grrrrr! Stay away.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

The color of that toilet is really beautiful. Sometimes it can be hard to find a red that rich.

[Sally, la reina]

[Sally, la reina]

!

[Félix]

My cats have eyes just like that.

[evie]

That's an interesting flower Catherine. What is it called?

[Scout]

Watch out, kitty.

I make those too.

[Sally, la reina]

My fingers itch - I think it is an anxiety thing. I get patches of dry painful itchy skin.

[Sally, la reina]

A friend told me this is because my chi is coming to the surface there.

[Sally, la reina]

Or something like that. She has a patch on her leg that flares up when she's anxious.

[Sally, la reina]

This then became a conversation about acupuncture.

[Sally, la reina]

And how western acupuncturists just don't do it right. We're wusses in the US, was the thesis.

[Félix]

Chi-ca-go.

[Sally, la reina]

Is that chicken in the car again?

[Sally, la reina]

And the car won't go?

[Félix]

It's dead. The car, not the chi-cken.

I'm more inclined to think it's because of winter weather, but that's just me.

[Félix]

I'm more inclined to be reclined.

[Sally, la reina]

That's some good constructive dialogue. Thanks, Janine for responding. I'm applying lots of lotion today.

[evie]

Good morning Catherine.

I see your in fine form today. I wish I could be a fly on the wall when your boss receives that bouquet!

[Cynthia]

Three days away, and I will never catch up with Terminal Coffee.

[Jammies]

*tries to slow down the TC bus for Cynthia*

[Cynthia]

I'll just have to skip a few hundred threads. Life goes on, sister Jammies.

[Jim]

::thought jammies had a suspended license, wonders how we put her in charge of driving the bus::

MNN business?

Isn't Jammies the one driving the floor polisher? Is that our bus?

Well we don't really have a big budget, so our vehicles need to multitask.
