@Yutsano: Check out my reply to you belowthread, and what do you mean enjoyed the cellos more than you thought you would? How is that even possible? Cellos are teh awesums!
@MattR: Aren’t you supposed to be in bed? And, aren’t you demanding!
@Mnemosyne: I posted that onto my FB wall with the comment, Kitteh Snow DEMON! Night!
The question is how we can convince the 77% to do what David Broder tells them to do.

@asiangrrlMN: I should be asleep but theory and reality often come into conflict. I should be in bed in about 15 minutes when I kick off one last job for work. I did just set the alarm for 5 hours from now. I am very excited to hear it go off. And we have snow in the forecast.
@freelancer: Oh yeah? Well I’m rubber, you’re glue …
@MattR: I hear you. I have been trying to roll back my sleep schedule, but yeah. Not working well. I WILL make it to bed before 3 Central mumble Time, though.
@Mark S.: By screaming Death Panels! Sockulism! Obamacare! at them until they capitulate.
OK. Which link does fucking WP not like? Everything goes better with cellos.
@Yutsano: Speaking of cookies….As for Marine hubbies, I know one who can build his own computer AND change the oil in his car. You may know of him as well.
ABL, do you have the keys to the moderation queue? I’m trying to change my screen name to Temporarily Max McGee for the Super Bowl fortnight.

I think that guy who rented Rahm’s house and refuses to leave must be very proud of himself. Or in fear of his life. (Joke, that was a joke, not actually implying that Rahm would cap anybody. Too soon?)
For something completely different, I just discovered Friday Night Lights on DVD, and all I want to say is, Matt Saracen, you deserve so much better than Julie Taylor.

@asiangrrlMN: Aargh. FYWP. First time went into moderation cuz I was not paying attention.
I’m assuming you aren’t watching p0ker so threatening to pull the plug is useless
Aha! Is very good now! Thank you, ABL, or Anne Laurie, or, ya know, whoever got me outta there!

@asiangrrlMN: I tried to fix my sleep schedule last night. Went to bed an hour early and tossed and turned for 3 hours before I could fall asleep. FML.
@Martin: I know. My best ones got eated as well. FYWP!
@Martin: I hear it takes six weeks to establish a new habit. But, I feel your pain. It is really hard to adjust a sleep schedule.

I think the problem is that I got a new TiVo and I lost my extended channels until the cable guy comes and am now suffering from Top Gear withdrawals. Plus the goddamn dog thinks he’s a prince and demands constant attention. I blame the queen. She breeds these freakish things.

@asiangrrlMN: Chocolate graham cookies in chocolate sauce? My heart doth runneth over in joy!
And yeah, I finally got the last piece of the puzzle to make up a batch or two of nom noms. Hopefully these will work better than my last attempt. Don’t ask.
And yeah, I finally got the last piece of the puzzle to make up a batch or two of nom noms.
I usually get big WTFs! over this, but dunking Oreos in Hawaiian Punch Fruit Juicy Red was, I think, the ambrosia that sustained the Greek pantheon of gods.
@Yutsano: Yeah. They’re cute as shit, but a 45 lb dog with 4″ long legs is the most ridiculous thing ever.
@asiangrrlMN: Yes, comatose is part of the therapy.
@asiangrrlMN: Simple enough to make. Drop in tempura batter, fry until golden, scarf when warm. Fudgy gooey little discs of serious chocolate nom.
@Martin: Friend of mine in Canada had one. Annoyed him cause he always wanted to go outside. And always bugged HIM to let him out, even though there were four other people in the house.

Martin
@Yutsano: Yeah, he goes out a lot. Enough that we’re considering replacing one of our sliders with one with a dog door. But he’s a great pet overall. The kids just adore him.
I’m out as well. Going to try and settle for my usual sleep time without the tossing and turning. Unfortunately without the gin as well. Nights all.

In the late ’70s I ran into a guy named Don Chandler so I had to ask him if he was the Packers kicker. He wasn’t but told the story that he went to SB I and the night before the game was having dinner in a bar. Several Chiefs fans overheard the staff saying his name & started buying him drinks. He said he was quite hungover the next day as a result.
Not that it seems to have mattered to a real Packer.

That may be one of the top five Photoshops ever.

IIRC those are kosher even.
And thanks for the music blogging earlier ABL. I actually enjoyed the cellos more than I thought I would.

Ok, but I wouldn’t put it pasta him to eventually win this ballot fight.

I’m a fan of Driftglass’ photoshops.

Wow, was wondering what deep political meaning this could have… then put together the joke. Thanks, fun stuff.
Weirdly, the radio just started playing a song called “Miso Ramen” right at this very moment. It’s kinda good!

Hello peoples of the night. I haz nothing to say. But I iz watching. So make with the funny please.

It’s close, but most Americans would rather raise the payroll cap than cut SS benefits or raise the retirement age.

Shouldn’t it really be Ramen Yewell, not Rahmen Emanuel? Or maybe Ramen Ramenuel?

It must be the Alan Rickman link. Everything goes better with Alan Rickman as well. Let’s see if FYWP will allow this link.
And chocolate. Will FYWP allow this link?

Combination of wrong measurements and not the best quality vanilla. Or when good cookies go bad. Horribly horribly bad.
