Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

There are vegan marshmallows which are kosher.

There are also kosher marshmallows made with fish gelatin.

The eighties look I keep seeing is short denim shorts over bright-colored tights. I think I wore that when I was nine or ten.

So they are already digging new holes in my recently repaved street. Jackhammers. Oy.

The city didn't pick up anyone's leaves. My trashmen are stupid.

I'm going to the pool.

You have got to be kidding me. Westboro Baptist protested at the Obama girls' school. [link] (Well, older kids and younger kids are on different campuses, and I think that looks like the fifth grade through high school campus, so just Malia's school.)

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

Are they the ones that said the Obama children are the "spawns of Satan" or something? (I saw a headline but didn't read.)

(Actually, I just looked at their schedule -- they protested yesterday at the Upper School, today at the Lower School.)

As far as I could understand the rambling on the schedule, they were protesting because Obama is the anti-Christ and Quakers have abandoned Jesus and are going to hell. (The girls go to a Quaker school.)

At the Upper School, faculty and students staged a counter-protest, wearing rainbows and holding a sign that said, "There is that of God in everyone."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And that is why they are awesome.

I have spent more money at the grocery store in the past week than I did in five years in my last place, I swear to god. But I'm going to make a pot roast tomorrow!

So, Oz just ate several ounces of raw chicken. Should I be worried?

I should have looked sooner when I heard plastic rustling and the groceries weren't put away.

New chicken? I'm sure it's fine -- aren't we supposed to have our cats on raw chicken diets anyway?
