The hijack game. win absolutely nothing but your insanity...

Padded chairs in the kitchen are much more comfortable. More people should get them.

Kitchen Stadium and the whole Iron Chef thing is such a great concept!

I hate stadiums. Too many people.

Are people as Left-Wing as they make them seem on the CBS Evening News?

Speaking of the evening news, our political newscaster here mumbles. I can’t understand what he’s saying half the time, but he’s really cute.

I’m home!

And I have a hankerin’ for some frozen yogurt with mixed nuts.

Frozen yogurt with mixed nuts is good, but Godiva dark chocolate ice cream, IMHO, beats that insipid stuff completely. Actually, I once had this truly luscious, sharp, rich homemade vanilla ice cream at a Mennonite mission fundraising dinner (As an agnostic Jew, I’m not a big financial supporter of Christian missionaries, but I was an invited guest of two of the contributors to the fund. But I digress…) that tops just about every frozen confection I’ve ever eaten before or since. Well, except maybe this really refreshingly tart kiwi sorbet I had once. That was pretty good, too, but in a very different way.

So enjoy your frozen yogurt with mixed nuts, but realize that you could aspire to something better. Though I’ve no idea where you can get that homemade vanilla ice cream. And the place that made the kiwi sorbet was privately owned and has long since gone belly-up.

Darn.

Nuts are good in cereal. I finally bought some cereal yesterday. I was out for the longest time. Now I have cereal, but my milk supply is so low. I guess that means its back to the grocery store. I hate forgetting to buy something at the store, and needing to go back.

Speaking of bellies…I saw a pregnant bikini contest tonight on Real TV, on the new Spike TV (no relation to Spike Lee! :slight_smile: )

Speaking of cereal. I used to like watching those old Flash Gordon Serials on TV when I was a kid.

TV watching was good as a kid. I remember our old tv hasd one of those old, massive remote controls with several C batteries in it, and these huge buttons.

Remote control?! Look, maybe I’m a geezer (I turn 30 in January), but I remember having to get up from the sofa to change the channel for my parents.

I also remember when we first got a color TV, and, much later, when we finally got cable. At first, Nickelodeon didn’t have commercials. I was incredibly ticked when ads for M&Ms started popping up. Feh.

We have a new remote that came with cable. (We didn’t have cable until a few months ago.) I had no idea remotes had become so complicated.

Oh and talk about complicated. I am ready to box up this stupid Digital cam and take it back. I’ve wanted one for over a year and now that I have it, I can’t seem to get the pictures off it and into the computer. (Yes, yes, I know it’s me that’s stupid not the camera.)

Speaking of homeade vanilla ice cream…You could always make your own scribble. There are tons of recipes on the internet, and a nice maker will only cost you around $30. In 1943, Nancy Johnson of New Jersey invented the first hand-cranked ice cream freezer. She sold the patent for $200. I love ice cream, ice cream is a religion for me.

No offense, Abby… Garbage In, Garbage Out! :slight_smile:

Oh I can see the pictures on the review on the camera. They’re ok. So I guess if I photograph garbage you are saying they will come out?

Garbage, ice cream…

::thinking::

Hey, don’t you just HATE it when you have to throw half gallon of ice cream into the garbage can because it’s grown those weird ice crystals?

Speaking of which, I would love a cup of chocolate mint ice cream about right now.

I’ve got a bunch of digital pictures from my last vacation stored on CD-ROM. I haven’t downloaded onto my own computer or uploaded them onto a website. That’s probably because my computer is about as useful as a hunk of cheese (really crappy cheese at that. If it were a vintage brie, or something, that would be good. Then I could eat my computer on bread or crackers with a nice white wine.) And I don’t have a personal webpage, or anything.

Speaking of cheese I was typing birth announcements today and some parents named their daughter Brie. :confused:

Browsing through vintage clothing stores is a lot of fun, there’s almost always some really great stuff to be found. I got a really cool leather jacket at one a couple of years ago.
