Just call 'em slabs of joy.
we'd leave out the bacon fat but feel sorry for the poor vegetarians whose food had no flavor, all good
Because vegetarians are about as hilarious as fat people, or gay people, or the disabled.

Bookhouse - I get bitchy sometimes when I'm pressed on other fronts, like work. Ignore me.

It's the New Madrid Fault!
Bloomington, IL - didn't really feel it, heavy sleeper, but the cat did, freaked out and jumped off the nightstand, knocking over a frame in the process, and waking me, who felt the last tremors.

Oh no! Not butternut squash risotto again.
Do you eat tempeh and seitan? Tofu is ok, I really do love it, but I've been getting into tempeh and seitan pretty heavy, and you can do all sorts of things with them, esp. seitan.

Out of State Seatbelt Ticket
Depending on who your insurance carrier is, they might not even check your record, until your policy comes up for renewal, and then it's still only a possibility. If you switch carriers or something, then it'll definitely turn up.

Cooking more with yonder crockpot.
Seriously some of the best and easiest soup I've ever made:
2 cans cream of celery condensed soup.
Put condensed soup in crockpot, and add one can of milk/soymilk.
Add one 8 oz. brick of good sharp cheddar, cut into little blocks.
Stir to combine soup/milk.
Heat on low, 3-4 hours. Stir it just occasionally to ensure it's not burning on the bottom. You want the cheese cubes to start to melt, but not totally.... [more]

How do I let him know I'm interested?
Speaking from some experience (long ago), just to play devil's advocate, these situations can work out sometimes, as long as all involved are honest about their motives, goals, and concerned about whatever might happen afterwards.

Supplement iTunes Library
What CunningLinguist said. However, when I download tunes from emusic into the emusic folder, and then have iTunes import that folder, I find iTunes does not delete the initial files. I have to do that manually.

The white grout . . . not such a good idea.
How much floor are we talking about? If you decide to regrout, rather than going the screwdriver route (which might not be too bad on a small floor but still sounds like a lot of work), you can buy a tool made especially for scraping old grout out. I believe there are manual versions as well as types that attach to power tools. Piece of cake to use, and it's gotta be much faster than a screwdriver.

No good punks
Thirding Suburbia (and I liked it too, back in my "hate everyone" punk days).
Jack (Chris Pederson), the lead in the movie, went on to star in Platoon, and even appeared on Baywatch. He and Bill Coyne, who played Ethan, were the only professional actors (at the time) in the movie. It also features performances by TSOL, DI, and The Vandals.

Cure for a boyfriend induced stomachache?
Not going to look for it (at work), but I have seen ads for supplements that will change the flavor of ejaculate (I even think they came in different flavors - berry and whatnot).
But maybe a question - do you like to swallow? Is it something that turns him on? Would it detract from the sex to handle it another way (i.e. ejaculate on your chest, back, tummy, whatever)?

Let There Be Light!
Can you get into the crawl space? If so, and you locate the former boxes (if indeed there are any), just drill a small home down through the ceiling, maybe dangle something through it so you'll know precisely where you drilled, and voila, you'll know where to cut through the plaster.

Can I get over what happened in my boyfriend's past?
Apparently he found somthing attractive in how repulsive it was.
This stuck out for me. It sounds, IMHO, like he didn't get off on the fact they were underage, or fantasize about any prurient activity. It sounds like more of a fleeting sick fascination, the same reason some people will watch the sick shit or Stile but never contemplate undertaking anything similar in real life. More of a "holy crap, I can't believe they do that.... [more]

What is a good team outing in Ottawa, Ontario?
Something a team here is doing that I found cool is getting together for a "team building" day that will actually involve building playsets to give to the Salvation Army.
So, I'd encourage you to think about an activity that is fun, can involve everyone, and also has the bonus of giving something to your local community.
Or, paintball.

How to deal with red wine stained teeth
Do you use any sort of teeth whitening system? When I did that before our wedding, I noticed it made my teeth much more porous, and hence much more suseptible to staining from red wine.

WTF is my cat doing?
Might be normal as most have suggested, but (ahem) he also might have a blocked anal gland. If he seems to be sensitive about any scratching or petting near his tail or on the back of his legs, get him to a vet stat. You do not want that sucker exploding.

Read classic punk 'zines, without the inky fingers!
This interview was one of the funniest things I had ever read back in the "day." I would re-read it over and over again and cackle like an idiot. I believe the original interview included his phone number, and one night I called him (mentioned in the Sid thread awhile back) and got his answering machine. I was completely shit faced, and mumbled for awhile before I said "GG you fuck, this is D***. Call me back or I'll kill all my friends."

Happy 50th Birthday, Sid
One drunken college night I tried like hell to find his mother's phone number. I gave up when I finally realized that "Ritchie" is as common in Englad as "Smith" in America. So I called GG Allin instead and left a message on his answering machine.

I had beers with Nic Cage one night, and met John Popper because his limo had broken down at a rest area in central Illinois. I was driving home from seeing my mom, who was dying.
