Now tagless for your comfort.

The choices were: get elected; win the lottery; seize power. Chris answered, "Seize Power--that's right, right Mommy."

He was really paying attention last November, wasn't he? I loves me some Chris. Kid's smarter than a lot of adults I know.

I gave Owen some vienna sausage-like things that they make for toddlers. He hated them. He prefers shaved, smoked, honey maple ham. We tend to not do potted meat products at our house, but I grew up in the presence of both vienna sausages AND spam (or Treat, whichever was on sale).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Has anyone ever had pigeon? What does it taste like?

Tommyrot, fire on the Purple Line. It's well south of you, but service might still be affected.

Thanks. I missed your warning, but it didn't affect me too much - maybe a five minute delay.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a cousin who had all these very precise ideas of how she was feeding her son. I think the first off-list food he got his hands on (he was maybe 18 months) was prosciutto. She tossed out many of her rules after seeing his glee at stuffing a fistful of that into his mouth.

eta:

What does it taste like?

Chicken. Smoked chicken.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I haven't had vienna sausages in forever, but I did really like them as a kid. That and cold hot dogs, which are pretty much the same thing, no?

Thrive to spite them

DX -- did CBS News say why helicopters were sent? Did they not realize it was just kids and think there was some kind of...something else going on?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Apparently, the police also called in helicopters to help subdue her. Maybe she's a potential.

Did they have eight by ten glossies with circles and arrows and a pargraph on the back of each?

Chicken. Smoked chicken.

Huh.

There's a place near me that serves pigeon four or five different ways. I've been thinking of ordering it.

I hate pigeons. Maybe eating one will be sorta like looking into the eyes of your enemy as he dies - you get his strength.

In the interest of full disclosure I should reveal that I made that up.

Or you get this uncontrollable urge to loiter on sidewalks or tie mail to your foot.

Oh.

Bitch. I was wondering about the 'smoked' part.
