Was it all Tweety Bird stuff? because, like if it was that was not as good.

And to Nox4:

I understand you think I am being insensitive, but I am simply being survivalist...the overwhelming number of people i've worked with over the years with personal problems, many of them involving ill relatives is too great to number. I was expressing being worn out as people find me someone to confide in, ironically enough. it's draining, dude.

Everbody knew the gun was loaded, but no. Nixon ballcap, a rubber spider on an elastic string, some speakers. There may have been some other stuff, but my office was pretty messy.*


*Uh, not from, well, you know.

Spot poll: oyster stuffing at Thanksgiving: yes or no?

Depends. Cooked outside of the bird? Sure. Do whatever you like. Cooked inside of the bird? No. Cornbread is an acceptable alternative (to the basic Peppridge Farms cubes with onions, celery, and some crumbled sausage), but that's it.

I got this e-mail from a breed specific listserv that I'm on: Stealing dogs at a rest-stop? Jesus christ.

Earlier this year, on this same listserv, I heard about two dogs that were stolen out of a car while the owners went inside to check into a motel. The dogs were "found" once the reward posters went up.

That is incredibly sucky. Sucktastic, even.

No, you would never try to make it all about you.

That's an awfully narrowminded view of stuffing, NB. Yours sounds like a strictly missionary holiday.

Not as crazy as the Red Sox dropping $51 mil for the right to spend another $40 mil over 3 years on a pitcher who's never pitched in the majors before.

And I don't want to hear another word from a Boston fan about our crazy spending ever again. Ever.

Boras says it's not crazy if you look at what the Yankees make marketing Matsui in Japan. OTOH, he would say that.

Oh, and for Not Bob, Ashley has a movie coming out in the next few days. Dunno if it'll end up in Podunkville, though.

Mmmmmmmmmm, Ashley. (Nice back, eh?)

I actually saw that preview at the art house theater over by the college a couple of weeks ago when Mrs. Not Bob and I saw "Little Miss Sunshine," so keep your fingers crossed that it will make it here.

AoN, it was written and directed by the annoyingly-voiced Joey Laurence Adams of "Chasing Amy" fame. I read somewhere that it was semi-autobiographical and that she planned on playing herself until she decided to direct it only.

We have had to finally give up and admit that my parents, after 35 years of marriage and a couple of others living in sin together, are never, ever going to agree on the validity of cornbread vs. regular bread stuffing. We just have two stuffings, and whoever gets to the bird first gets to put theirs inside.

Indeed. I wish that I could say that it was intentional. I was just distracted by Ashley, obviously. (Mmmmmm, Ashley.)

Joey Lauren (duh) Adams.
