Lentil texture depends on how I am eating them. If I'm eating cold or room temp in a lentil salad, I lean toward mushier. Warm over rice, like in a lentil curry, I like them firmer (to vary texture with the rice)
Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

[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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It depends on the kind of lentil. The teeny dark green French ones are best al dente, but dahl you want pretty soft.
[eta: Bwah! Vortex and I are lentil opposites.]

GC, don't forget Angie's List. Rate the icky OB on there too.
THIS. You can rank doctors there, and I do check it.
Of course, Thomas the Tool Engine dissented
Of course. He's all about strip-searching girls, I'm sure. If it had been a boy, he might not have dissented.

Vortex, I just quoted that Thomas quote to a friend, who said, "lord save us from clarence thomas pondering the undergarments of teenage girls"
It does seem quite unseemly.

Or worse, things hidden in the undergarments of teenage girls.

Once again, ND for the geek Win! The Alaska Air pamphlet talked about it, but neither of my flights had it. Very disappointing.
They had it on AirTran, of all things. I didn't try it out because I had to work, but I think I've got a new requirement in amenities the next time I'm booking flights.

Aw, my sister had baby #3 this afternoon! His name is most likely going to be Ryan Timothy but TomW is mounting a campaign to name him "Tom Thomas."
He's got the dark hair, like me! The other 2 are total towheads.
My sister was in labor for like 3 hours and was pushing for 20-25 minutes. That kind just shot right out of there. She had been induced this morning though.

Redding would not have been the first person to conceal pills in her undergarments. Nor will she be the last after today's decision, which announces the safest place to secrete contraband in school.
OK, fine. Even if I give him that, how do school officials have the right to strip search students? Shouldn't they have to call law enforcement? Should employers? Should parents? Should the parents of concerned friends? Who all gets to tell a minor to take off her clothes so she can be searched for Pamprin?
