Interesting.

ION, it's cold today and it's going to be a trifle warmer tomorrow but then on Thursday it's going to be REALLY COLD again.

I put in Catch-22 and got Vogue Knitting (which I own and enjoy).

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Oh you're right Sumi. It might get down below 50 this week! brr!

Seriously though- how sick am I that I'm envious of Chicago buried under a blanket of snow? I miss the slog through the drifts to the el stop, the wiggling of toes inside three layers of socks to make sure they're still circulting blood in there. The tricky wind that can find the seams in four layers of clothing... course I also miss Halsted Street Market Days, sweating rivulets despite the skimpiest of sundresses and medicinal vodka lemonades. I guess I'm just a Chicagoan no matter how far away I live.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am ALL SET with the NYC government trying to force me to be healthier. I would love restaurants not to use transfats, but in general, I feel like that should be driven by consumer demand, not the freaking government.

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

I hope NYC-istas aren't overly fond of fast food.

We can still have it, it just has to be fried in oil that occurs in nature.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm going to catalog my library--the first 200 books at least--on line! Fie on you, Jessica, for giving me another online toy! Fie!

I would never have pegged it as explicitly anti-Christianity.
I got a bunch of religious books in my results, too. You have to bear in mind it's not analyzing content; it's just saying "if you have X book, you're unlikely to have Y book as well."

But I was amused that I put in The Good Soldier and was un-recommended Harry Potter. Which made up for my annoyance that they had the author listed as Homer.

Oh damn. The guys installing Kristen's kitchen tile have the refrigerator blocking the bathroom, and I gotta pee. Like, 'splode.

There's no place to really move it except back in the kitchen and I don't think that's possible. I think I just have to sit very still.

Pray for me.

And if I explode, avenge me.
