Sure! I'm adaptable that way.
Are there Splenda donuts?
and thx, Molly.
Holes?
Morning Everyone!
I have English Muffins with strawberry/creamcheese.
That's what we call the little munchies, Barndog, but I'm sure it can be taken several ways.
I worked until about nine last night--bleah. I had to put together this binder cataloguing everything I've done for the last year and a half, for promotion.

I understand. Those little bastards are hard on the cholesterol and bad fats.

Yes. Lemon please.
Since there are only 19 of us here this morning...
Is it true that DK's place is on strike over candidate madness?
Travel safe, V. and great pics to you.
I have lemon curd, but not marmalade.
We spent $40 at the butcher yesterday. The most since we started going to the Amish market. Still, it's enough meat to last a couple of weeks.

lotsa wheres that's a problem. cabdrollery even has had some trolls, and we're pretty quiet usually.
Bacon donuts???
The delivery guy from the DFH market said they were going to have A BIG meeting, and maybe big changes are coming or they'll stop delivering altogether. I sure hope not.
Morning, rational people.
"I have lemon curd, but not marmalade.

Come on over. I love them both!
Lemon curd sounds dreamy.

I see. Maybe that is where MSM has been getting their news. Sheesh!
Okay, I'm done with that issue.

It's an acquired taste, I admit.
Hi, Diane, pathetic that the formerly great U.S. supports Chinese brutal annexation of Tibet, at http://cabdrollery.blogspot.com
At our now rather large fruit & vegetable market, they have an awesome selection of foods which you won't find in the mainstream stores.
I find it less expensive and better vegs & fruits than Kroger.
Bacon donuts???
No thanks.
I'm thinking David Gregory's new Race To The White House show won't be much help.

Barndog,
Our local market has only strawberries and sweet potatos at the moment. I can't wait for the fresh asparagus to broil in the oven.
Ruth,
I read your article. Good one! I did not leave a post this morning as I am doing three pages at a time. I'll leave you a nice one shortly.
NewSeasons had grilled fresh Asparagus in citrus oil this week, and yummy Meyer Lemons last week.
I think being less than a day's drive from the Mexican border means we get very fresh veg's and fruit. Anyway, all our stores have great fresh stuff.
I like grilled asparagus. A little olive oil, s&p & some garlic powder if you like (or, you could take the time to rub them with fresh peeled cloves). Cook until a medium brown color.
Bacon donuts???
No thanks.
Barndog, not fishing yet | 03.15.08 - 7:42 am
Yuk.
thanks, PeasantP, always appreciated.
Everything I've done in teh last year and half?
Let's see, I fed the car, went drinking, posted on Eschaton, umm... there was that time I did that other thing...
how 'bout some biscotti instead.
christ, just flipped over to cnn and it looks like they have their entire atlanta crew dispatched to every friggin neighborhood for live updates on the downed trees and broken windows.
uh, can't they leave that for the local outlets. i guess there's nothing else happening..
Moe's asparagus plants should come on strong this year, after a small harvest last.
"NewSeasons had grilled fresh Asparagus in citrus oil this week, and yummy Meyer Lemons last week.

Yum!
Barndog! Yes, that is the way I do it at home.
Asparagus produces for a score of years or more, it's nice that way.
Molly, what kind of promotion?
CSpan talking Fed regs of the future, 'gotta look at those incentives' - usual winger blinders. had to keep 'aggregate level' up to our resources, "we went on a tear" - almost honesty from former Fed monetray director Reinhart.
Lemon Marmalade is hard to find. I like the homemade better than any I've tried. You just use the same recipe for Orange.
Anyway, I soooooooo love it any type of breads and coffee in the morning.

Still feeling punky. Apparently the sinus infection is a symptom. The real problem is yet another variation of the flu.
And, yes, I did sleep most of yesterday away. I don't see doing much more than that today, although I do have a bit more energy.
"uh, can't they leave that for the local outlets. i guess there's nothing else happening..

There is plenty happening. They are just too afraid to report on what the Administration is doing. Condi is due back with her reports and all. I guess they don't want us to know how much she gave away.
I still can't get over Susan being related to Condi!

Morning, Moonbats!
It was an old-fashioned bank run that forced Bear Stearns to turn to the government for salvation on Friday. The difference is that Bear Stearns is not a commercial bank, and is therefore not eligible for the protections those banks received 75 years ago when Franklin D. Roosevelt halted bank runs with government guarantees.
can I assume that the gov will bail out my business iffn I decide to make risky gambles and they don't pan out?..
I think it was decided that they are second cousins or something.

I heard an interview with Susan in which she talked about their familial relationship, and how she disapproves of Condi. Molly, is susan racist to admit the kinship? heh

Steve, did you see this news story from yesterday?
Antarctica's Unique Space Rocks
A pair of meteorites discovered in Antarctica are in a class all of their own, a major space conference has been told.
Studies of the extra-terrestrial rocks have revealed qualities that set them apart from any meteorites previously known to science. Researchers are pondering where in our Solar System the meteorites could have originated.
An origin on Planet Venus has been discussed, but now looks unlikely. The space rocks are much older than the majority of Venus' surface - appearing to rule the planet out as the source.
Scientist are also puzzled by an inscription found on one of the meterorites: "Og - congrats on the Gold Rock! All the best, Steve Simels"
.
I dunno, but someone said "Oh, two black professional women with the same last name--they *must* be related!" or some such thing.

I think Reszko is nothing more than a contributor. Sen. Obama should be able to shrug that off as well, even if he has to give back or give away the money.
Ralphie, you have to scroll past them.
CSpan caller being really mad that CEOs are getting hugely paid and don't know what they're buying/selling. not right, should have salary docked for malfeasance.
BHO discussed it with Keith (vid at MSNBC) and totaled all the financial assistance he received from Rezko in all his State and Federal Campaigns. Jon Alter thinks it may be serious, BHO -- Not so much.

Krakatoa East of Java
For those of you playing at home, in real life Krakatoa is West of Java.
Heh.
I think it is not a big deal because no one, not even greatest detractors, suggest that Obama did anything wrong.
It does make him look more like a conventional politician, and it's bad that Rezco is going on trial, but in the end I don't think it's anything.
At the bar last night we thought the pastor was a bigger deal, and we agreed that Obama needs to at least put some distance between them to get the MSM, if not Fox, to shut up about it.

You really think the minister thing has legs, CoT? Why?
Steve, did you see the Seuss movie? Is it less sucky than the others?
Actually, I think the minister stuff is a plus.
First of all, he dealt with it deftly.
Secondly, it proves he's not a Muslim.

Unfortunately, I think McCain got the soundtrack to go along with the picture of BHO in Arab dress. The caliphate idiots will eat it up.
Molly,
I don't think it has legs. RMJ and I discussed it yesterday. There is the separation issue, not to mention the fact that the other candidate does not necessarily attend regularly. Umm, also how can the fundies wrap their minds around forever war?
Wright is screaming and yelling things that sound "unpatriotic" and "anti-white" to some ears. The fact that they are also true does not seem to enter into it.
That loud peal of laughter you just heard was me. I've been reading my email and one of the secretaries at work, a Chicana, sent me something to cheer me up:
"In a recent poll, 4% of Californians expressed concern at the rising tide of illegal immigration.
The other 96% said, "Que dijo?"
Good day, beautiful people!
The caliphate idiots will eat it up.
qlª
no doubt. but one news report last night mentioned that Barack is German Jewish, the mom named him a polygott
Because the minister is such a loon, and it pushes buttons even for moderates, and there's a video, and he looks barking mad - but mostly because it plays into a meme - "who is this guy, Obama, really?"
No one thinks he's on the take with Rezco, but people want to know, is he a black militant like Al Sharpton and this pastor, or is he someone who can be a statesman representing all Americans. What is he "really" like?
Although I was the one at the table arguing Obama can defuse this - some other Atriots were more worried than me. But they're worriers.
The NYT says "Horton Hears..." may be distinguished from other Suess movies by virtue of the fact it's NOT a disaster.
Wright is screaming and yelling things that sound "unpatriotic" and "anti-white" to some ears. The fact that they are also true does not seem to enter into it
Exactly why the media are pushing it so hard.

It kinda puts all the earlier agonizing about Obama on "liberal" blogs into context.
Hmm. NeoOffice new release 2.2.3 was supposed to be posted "in the first half of March." That leaves maybe tomorrow. (hates vaporware silently)
I think Steve is right. Bobo Brooks and Mark Shields on The NewsHour gave Obama all sorts of praise for standing up and repudiating in a classy way Rev. Wright's more outspoken remarks.
It's Sister Souljah all over again. Plus, it points out that Obama is in fact a church-going Christian.
Wright is screaming and yelling things that sound "unpatriotic" and "anti-white" to some ears. The fact that they are also true does not seem to enter into it

I'm hoping to get out next weekend to move some dirt around, clean up a bit. We'll see.
The ice storm has morphed into straight-up snow. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It's minus eight Commie degrees now, which is colder than they thought.
