Welcome to the world, Babyfrass!

Congrats on a clean bill of health, BreastsofReason!

I've cut back to not having caffiene after 3pm, except on Tuesdays and bank holidays, but that's the best I can do.

Speaking of crazy cat ladies (we were, right?), I recently heard on the news that a woman here has been arrested for animal cruelty. She had ~192 cats in her house (alive...there were at least 3 dead ones).

The house is going to have to be demolished.

I totally want a slap chop. Damn that prostitute slapping Vince all to hell.

Slapping? I thought he bit her. Or did she bite him? There was tongue bitage, I swear.

eta:

Shlomi said that when he kissed Harris, she suddenly "bit his tongue and would not let go." Shlomi then punched Harris several times until she released his tongue.

Sham-Wow Vince is hawking a manual pseudo food processor called a "Slap Chop."

We had one of those back in the '70s, we called it the blitz-hacker. Not sure where we got it. It worked great, but it didn't survive one of our moves.

Awesome news Jilli!

My mother told me that she's not sure what to do when I go visit, because she likes to cook things for me, but she says it seems like I haven't been happy with what she's been cooking. I talked it over with my sister, and decided to email my mom a list of things that she's cooked for me that I like. When did food get this complicated? (I'll eat whatever she makes me, and I cannot remember ever actually saying I didn't like something since I was about 14. But if I don't go into, "Wow, this is delicious!" then she thinks I don't like it.)

I think she bit his tongue and he punched her to get her to let go or something like that.

Pampered Chef has a great chopper like that but Slap Chop comes with a Graty and I think that's what's sold me on the package.

But you're talking to someone who owns four Topsy Turvies and a One Sweep.

I see a lot of Slap Chops in resale shops.

The Slap Chop is really similiar to the Chop O Matic that Ronco sold.

Except the Slap Chop seems to have a "butterfly" opening and a really creepy pitch man.

I have to admit I have a weakness for watching infomercials, I've never bought anything (usually because I've been to broke) but if I see the Redi-Set-Go cooker (the latest version of the GT Xpress 101) in the store I may succumb.

You know, I realize it's hard when you only have one word to indicate that you want something, but it's equally hard to figure out the wanted item when there is only the one word followed by lots of shrieking.

I've had coworkers like that.

It's a lot more tolerable when it's a dog.

Shlomi said that when he kissed Harris, she suddenly "bit his tongue and would not let go." Shlomi then punched Harris several times until she released his tongue.

Yeah, I'm sure that was it. Totally self defense. Anyone would have done the same. @@
