Berlin: Armed Robbery.
Nope, that's not a metaphor for a river suckout that knocked Spence from the tournament. That's literal fact.

I've never been so happy to have Spence bust early. He wasn't there, we were both upstairs in our room.

Berlin
Arrived late Monday night, just in time to find out that Stars ran out of swag bags. Our house is full to the ceiling with unopened/unused logo gear, and yet, the loss of another bag is a bit of a downer. I like swag -- it's pretty. Spence is required to wear something with a Stars picture on it for the final table when(!!!) he makes it there, but ( Read more... ) -
Amazonfail!
Well, a little bit of excitement to round out the Easter weekend. Seems like Amazon has gone Christian Fundie! The internet is obviously abuzz. Emails are being sent. Calls are being made. Boycotts are being organized. Amazon is being torn apart on twitter tonight and will be further tarred on MSM tomorrow. What the fuck is going on?

Ждать можно долго... лет так двести - триста...
Не лучше ль встать, да и надрать им жопы?
Да так надрать, чтоб долго не сиделось,

Adventure in Slow Cookery: Part "Oh My God, Stop with That, Already!"
Tescos had a sale on ground beef this week, and since I've been craving a dish of spaghetti and meatballs lately, I picked up a couple of packs. I found a slow cooker meatball recipe online and it was the kind of recipe I pretty much got the slow cooker for: make the meatballs, pour in two jars of pasta sauce and come back in four hours. This ( Read more... ) -
Political ad.
I first saw this ad a few days ago on Jezebel, and I have to admit, I was really impressed. The ad delivers its message with such deft touch, that a few members of the Jezebel community actually insisted that this wasn't an attack ad (oh yes it is, you betcha!) I think it just shows how generally uncreative both candidates have been with their ( Read more... ) -

Do you use vinegar when making Salat Olivier? -
Borscht.
I'm attempting it. Right now it's in the slow cooker bubbling away. If only I could stop myself from cracking the lid every 30 minutes to sniff it to se if it smells like itself yet.
Not so far -- just smells like stewed tomatoes.
