It's so humiliating to have politicians do stupid stunts like Senator James Inhofe (R) did the other day - Such as demonstrate why he thinks everyone is stupid and crazy for believing in Global Warming...

While they cooked I boiled some water and threw in a handful of linguini. I also sliced several cherry tomatoes, half a bell pepper into thin strips, and thinly sliced some red-onion and a few scallions I had. Each ( Read more... )
