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.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

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

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Someone want to explain to him George Lucas' egocentric outlook on the universe and how he cannot stop messing with a good thing?
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.

My favorite weasel expression is "Some people say," As in "Some people say the great love of Sarah Palin's life is the goat she blew in high school." Then, if I get called on it, what? I'm not people? Voila...credibility, ur doin it wrong.

I'm rather a fan of "Nobody's saying". "Nobody is saying that Obama is the secret love child of Hitler and Stalin. I'm just saying that it's interesting that some people say he's both a Nazi and a Communist."

I feel like I'm in the nerd version of an American Gladiators competition, with engineers, hot potatoes and who can hang tough the longest on trouble tickets.

I don't have Mayflower people, but I've got people from the next couple of boats. Yay, bigoted Gov. Endicott! And his Quaker nemesises. Nemesi? What is the plural of nemesis, or is the point that you shouldn't have more than one?
