Man, for a while I had upstairs neighbors who had the most boring sounding sex ever.  I always felt bad for them, when I wasn't pissed that they were waking me up at 7 AM.

Welp, there was just a 500 barrel oil spill into Salt Lake City's water supply.  The drinking water is safe but a couple of creeks and wells are contaminated, including the small lake in the park by my house.  Blehhh.

No, no no.


Sweat miripoix, add tomatoes and olives, a little anchovy paste for depth, and then cook it down until most of the liquid is gone.

Squid's got you on this one. It's not a compote unless you add some sugar.

what you're describing would be better labeled as.....ketchup.

Further thinking makes me realize that most available ketchups have added sugar...


Now what?

Ketchup is one of the best ways to eat high fructose corn syrup.  Mmmm delicious diabetes sauce.

I read yesterday that there's a whole bunch of Honda workers in various factories in China striking in hopes of getting a labor union, even though those are not allowed.  The times, they are a-changin...

To further the derail, Rat has been using "grok" pretty much forever as far as I can remember.  Why get worked up about it now?

I will only eat a burger if it's made from the flesh of virgins, garnished with four-leaf clovers, and grilled by the light of a waxing moon.

Definitely not.  Sometimes I don't wear any underwear at all.

Weirdly, though I grew up in Utah, none of my friends talked about going to church and I was never invited to go until I hit high school, by which point it was too late.

Amtrak goes all over the west coast too but it's incredibly inconvenient.  Greyhound bus is basically the only ground transport, but everything is so far apart that air travel ends up being the best option unless your money is more important than your time.
