'Dirty Girls'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Drink the wine, flea!
I just walked over to the chichi co-op down the block and bought a turkey. Except it's not a whole turkey, it's like, the breast and some other stuff. WTF? But TJ's didn't have any, and since we had an ice storm yesterday, I"m not about to venture out to anywhere farther away (and mostly, Safeway has like, 25 pound birds anyway). Did the rest of the shopping earlier this week.
Owen asked me when Star Wars: A New Hope appeared in theaters. I told him 1977. He looked at me and asked, "How is that if Episode I opened in theaters in 1999?"
Someone want to explain to him George Lucas' egocentric outlook on the universe and how he cannot stop messing with a good thing?
Sometimes when a producer's ego and money love each other very much...
"How is that if Episode I opened in theaters in 1999?"
Good fuckin' point. I can't tell you how many confusing conversations I've had with Emmett who refers to the movies by their chronological order while I think of them in release order.
So when we say "The first Star Wars movie" we're never talking about the same thing.

Smart kid!
Heh, I just discovered I am a direct descendant of Myles Standish, just in time for Thanksgiving! mr. flea asked if this involves riches. Apparently not.
Might it not involve possible college scholarships for the kids? (I mean, he came over on the Mayflower, right?)
Mom is cooking for Thanksgiving, I'm bringing dessert - chocolate marscapone cake with chocolate buttercream icing and apple pie. I was considering adding caramel to the pie, but the store only had pints of heavy cream and I didn't want to buy it just for two tablespoons.

AWESOME! Not about the lack of riches, but it's still cool!

I saw this on Twitter but the only answers I could give, I don't think I wanted Owen to read. There'd have been swears involved.
