Speaking of the Food Network, I want this book! Alton Brown's Feasting on Asphalt: The River Run.
He was on NPR Last week talking about that. [link]
It seems two of the restaurants they visited on the trip have burned down since.
That's insane troll logic!

Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I have never been a dispatcher - but I did software testing for a company that makes it...and worked with them
1) people/ communication skills have to be high -- paniced people /drunk people / people with strong accents call .
2) you work all shifts all days. do not expect xmas or t-day off.
3) they do pay shift differentials.
People that like it, seem to stay. Most people that do it , know it is vital.
good work, hard work, not a lot of money for the job

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
OMG, am taking most annoying sexual harassment course. Not because of the content (Though it's this faux-cheerful "journey" to a "ultimate harassment free workplace")
Now I'm curious. How exactly do you render a workplace free from ultimate harassment? (Now I feel that should be capitalised.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
If you outlaw Frisbees, only outlaws will have Frisbees.

Step 3 is Profit!
I refuse to believe that Frisbees are the key to Ultimate Harassment, if only because I have never seen my brother with one.

The park that contains my local dog park also has a "disc golf course". It took several tries to figure out they were talking about Frisbees.
Gah. My flight tomorrow that I thought was at 9 something am is actually at 7:45 and the airport is an hour away. And I still need to run the dishwasher and put suet in the birdfeeder. Not to mention I haven't packed my carry-on. And DH has a work thing to do at freaking midnight. Gah

Step 1: ban Frisbees
Hah! I had a roommate once who was a big Ultimate player. I....don't get it. They scare me for some reason. Like, ruggers, I get. But Ultimate just seems WEIRD.
