Maybe she beat you to the buttercream frosting idea.

2. Is that Shape Shifter to the left of the woman?

All y'all, just get off my damn corner. He transferred our video to DVD to preserve it. I am going on the record as being touched by this action, and will consent to taking him back. So, rp, chick in cialis ad, Dave, you are all just SOL.

I would like to cover Shape Shifter with buttercream frosting and then lick it off him.

But I gave up stealing Paigow's boyfriends for Lent. For now I'll have to settle for licking it off the beaters.

See you on Easter, sweetie!

Edited to add please, no "he has risen" jokes. It would be disrespectful.

Come on over here and we can lick it off together....the beaters that is. We can lick it off the beaters together. Or each other. Whatever.

Howard Stern is playing an interview from, I think, a NY radio show of Mel's Dad.

The stuff about no holocost got the press- he does math about how much petrol to cremate each body- sick fuck guy.

But he goes way beyond that, to how Jewish look for jobs, and general behavior. I can't find a link of the whole thing, but he is one nuts guy.

Skip the printed version of the calendar and go straight to internet pay-per-view.

This is an excellent idea...and should keep Lawtalkers up and running for a very long time.

As a reward for your ingenuity, RP and I will be over shortly to make out with you.

If anyone still cares about "net carbs", here's a Post article explaining what it all means. Or doesn't mean.

Prosit!

The Census Bureau released a study about the length of commute times.

Y'all in TCOTU spend a full week commuting to work each year. :rofl:*

Here's an excerpt: New York City residents take an average of 38.4 minutes to get to work each day — more than five minutes longer than Chicagoans, who face a commute of 32.7 minutes.

Other large cities with populations of 250,000 or more with long commutes include Philadelphia (30.3 minutes), Riverside, Calif. (29.8), Baltimore (29.7), Washington, D.C. (29.4), San Francisco (29.2), Oakland, Calif. (29.1), Los Angeles (28.5) and Boston (28.2).

Because I have arrived at my beliefs as a result of studying not only the Bible but also secular sources, I won't cop to "actual ignorance."

And yet, that's what it is. Because neither the Bible nor your secular sources can confirm any of your beliefs.

I don't know what kind of study supports your beliefs so I can't even say whether I'm at a point of more or less ignorance than you.

The study that supports my beliefs is my own. It is based on the fact that there is no one agreed upon religion. All I have to do is look around me to see that many people of many different cultures believe in God in many different ways. I can't possibly imagine a God that would punish someone for growing up in the wrong country, region, city, house, hut, or shanty. That's my study.

I will say that I have a deep faith in God as I understand God to be based on the Bible, which I think is reliable based on historical church and non-church materials, and what I see in the world and people around me. It is faith and not fact because we can't see or know God or the lack of God or whether there is life after death in a tangible fashion.

Reliable? I think that's your deep faith speaking. But people believe what they want to believe, or what they're told to believe.

Originally posted by Fugee
You have a faith that sounds to be as strongly held as mine. How do you justify yours?

People don't ask me to justify mine because I don't go around telling other people that if they don't believe what I believe, I'm pretty sure they're toast. How you justify your faith to yourself is your business and I would never call you on it. But once you start spouting off about the consequences of having a belief system that doesn't mesh with yours, you're damn right you're going to have to justify yourself.

To paraphrase Longshanks:

The problem with Fredland is that it's full of Freddies.

My god isn't so insecure that he/she needs or desires worship. He/She is too busy fishing. With Bilmore.

why the constant hate for the Italians? We invented wine for goodnes sakes.

I love the Italians, even though I hate pasta. Its the licorice I hate. Even thinking about the taste of licorice makes me gag.

HA!

Originally posted by Atticus Grinch Does anyone have one of those >$100 fuzzy logic rice cookers? Care to wax rhapsodic about it and justify my impending purchase of one (we eat a fair amount of rice)?

I have a question for you -- how do you stay so regular eating all that rice? It's very, uh, binding -- if you know what I mean, and I think you do....

My grandmother swears by hers (she makes a lot of rice too), but my husband makes it the old-fashioned way* (rice is a staple of his native culture's cuisine -- he makes it almost daily) and was not too keen on the one my grandmother gave him as a gift. I don't know the brand -- if you're serious, I'll find out for you.


*His mother is also a die-hard, old-fashiond-method cook (and a good one at that!). We were staying at my in-laws vacation apartment, and the babysitter/housekeeper was looking for the coffee maker -- and when I showed her the "old sock" coffee drainer apparatus (that was all the rage 75 years ago...), she nearly fell over. She tried to hide her shock by saying, "Oh, that's the really ancient method" (bad translation -- it sounded less condescending in her native language).
