Here is a short list of subjects for children’s songs I want to hear:
- Blue Velvet
- 9-11 (Crash in! Crash in! We all fall down!)
- Glengary Glen Ross
- Fargo
Hey, so long as it’s morbid and/or depressing it should all be good!

Hey, so long as it’s morbid and/or depressing it should all be good!
…when I pee so much that my pants are looser.
Her birthday bike was too big; her legs just aren’t long enough to follow through the bottom of the stroke, so she ended up braking to a stop each cycle. Not very enabling.
So, we got her an el-cheapo smaller bike (she chose Dora the Explorer). All day long there have been people coming and going, and each time I warned her about a car she immediately got out of the street and/or driveway. Since she was so good about that, I told her that we would get her a bike she could fit on tomorrow.
Daddy Cy, however, suggested that we get one tonight — a stroke of parenting genius! She got the immediate reward, which I’m sure she’ll remember, plus we got to kill several birds with one stone by getting shipping supplies at the same time.
Funniest moment: She saw a Scooby flashlight, and told us
“I’ve been looking for one of these!”
Like either of us has the power to resist that kind of cuteness. C’mon.
If ever you’re looking for the time-setting eqivalent of whiplash, I doubt you could do much better than shifting from watching Of Mice and Men to reading Pattern Recognition.
It also raised an interesting (for me) rhetorical question:
What is the shortest time period over the last 100 years which saw the most personal change in the U.S.?
I’m leaning towards thinking 1935-1946, largely for the personal wealth and relative safety that was, er, fashionable at the time.
What is Ray Liotta, the kiss of death to good plots everywhere?
One would think that John Cusack would know better — but then again I thought the same thing about Morgan Freeman showing up in Dreamcatcher. Why, oh why would anyone do either of those films after Se7en and The Shawshank Redemption or The Grifters and Being John Malkovich?
Then again, I’m sure either one could buy and sell me ten times over.
Not too much here:
For quite some time I’ve been dinking around trying to get SASL to work on my colo box. It took
The most helpful part was the bit to add
PARAMS="-m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd"
although I added it to /etc/default/saslauthd rather than edit /etc/init.d/saslauthd (better for future debian upgrades).
Another point to make is that sasltestwhatever of testsaslwhatever doesn’t work so configured unless you also either
Didn’t she know that I would report it to spamcop?
Ingredient options are listed in order of preference:
You will also need at least one small batter bowl (or something equivalent), and one more bread pan than the number of loaves you plan to make (the extra one is used as a shaping pan).
On my machine, the initial (intermittent) stirring takes two minutes of the 20-minute kneading process. I try to be done drizzling in milk by the time 8 minutes are left before the first rise.
You want a real treat? Take two slices immediately after slicing the still-warm loaf; toast them until just barely crisp on the outside. Butter and salt. Try not to do that for two more slices.

When you’re using sex to obtain money it’s no longer a private life.
Has anyone else asked if Jeff Gannon paid taxes on the income from his escort services?
The nice thing about this one is that the chips stay soft even when the cookies cool!
Sue thinks this one came from a jello recipe, but doesn’t recall for certain…
1/4 CUP SUGAR
2 sticks of butter
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
small package instant vanilla pudding
1 tsp vanilla
beat the above until light and fluffy
add 2 eggs beat until well mixed
add 1 tsp baking soda and 2 1/4 cups flour; add flour one cup at a time, beat just until mixed
add 12 oz chocolate chips stir just until mixed
drop on a cookie sheet
bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes

You’re not flying higher than an eagle, are you?
CNN.com – Pope: Gay marriage is ‘evil’ – Feb 23, 2005, and also that abortion is like the holocaust.
So, this is the same position held by the leader of the catholic church who, during WWII, sat idly by and let the Nazi’s exterminate Jews, political prisoners, and gays? Yes? Yes.

Upgraded to wordpress 1.5. It was a no-brainer (or, as I originally typed it, a no-vrainer, because everyone knows how much I’m trying to get all traces of vrainage out of the house, now that Grace is here).
WordPress 1.5 now directly supports themes. I’m rather fond of Cup-o-Joe (as you can probably tell), but I want to have the sidebar headers generated in text, but I can’t figure out how to download fonts in Firefox.
Where’s George? ® 2.0 Bill Tracking Report should tell you that it wasn’t too stupid for me to put into the system!
Then again, I don’t see anyone surfing over there to learn to perform their own pacemaker upgrade when out at sea alone.
