I just saw the most despicable ad on TV. Two grey-haired Vietnam widows talking about their heroic husbands -- then pointing out that John Kerry spoke out about Vietnam when he came back. They say that if he couldn't be trusted then, how could he be trusted now.

"Trust" when there has been so many lies all through those years!

They're widows but "we" don't have to trust them!

Because  -- or thanks to! :D -- lack of finances, campaigns here are FOR and not AGAINST!

We all know that Kerry went to Vietnam so that many years after he could run for presidency, don't we all!?!?

Good Evening!

Well, one hour of practicing turned into almost three...

Then I happened to catch the end of "Like Water for Chocolate" on IFC.  One of my favorite movies.

And, now, I am off to join the Wussburgers of the world...

Goodnight.

I wasn't here because der Brucer was on line, posting pretty pictures of pooches pursuing possible placement with prospective people.

I really don't want to finish this paper. I took a break and went to fencing and beat the snot out of the new lady. And now I'm too tired to work on this paper.

I guess the new Aladdin DVD doesn't have the famous "Take off your clothes" moment. And that's not an urban legend. I, Panni, personally saw it.

Then I made up a list for der B, of books I'd like him to order.  (All on cookery, of course.)

I think there's a drawback, however, trying to browse books at one of the on-line bookstores.  I like holding a book in my hands, flipping through it (well, if it's non-fiction, having learned my lesson with fiction), and seeing if there's enough of interest in the book to warrant my shelling out.

For example, Gourmet magazine has released a thick tome covering sixty years of recipes.  Sounds good, right?  But, when I saw the book at the bookstore a couple of nights ago, I found it less than pleasing.  The names of the recipes, for instance, were printed in a sort of marigold ink, which was hard to read on the white paper.  And there were other organizational issues that made me back away.

On the other hand, Anthony Bourdain, novelist, chef and bad boy of repute, has just released his Les Halles Cookbook, covering the recipes from his day job.  He made it clear that he was not writing the book for sissies; yes, he does use fish heads when he makes fish stock, and that sort of thing.  What I liked when holding the book was how he focused more on method than on exact "recipes," expecting the reader to know how to adapt stuff to their own kitchens.  My kind of fellow.

I thought that was a "heard it" moment.

There have been a lot of slips in the Disney catalogue over the years.  Who Framed Roger Rabbit is filled with them, some intentional for those with freeze frame capabilities.  "For a good time, call Alice," on a bathroom wall, for instance.  But I've never been sure whether Jessica's panties was intentional or not.
