here's my idea

a reality show that takes place on a space station where every week the losers get shot off into space

it's a fine consolation prize because who wouldn't want to die in space

anyway that's my idea

what happened during the Harvard layoffs

I had the remaining three years of my five year project reduced to one year. Not sure if I'll get any kind of severance package after that.

Ryan was laid off and fortunately got a very good severance package.

Don't feel much like talking about it now. We're hanging in there.

At least I'm not the only one who thinks the mail delivery in Somerville is awful

Fun story: when we first moved in here, five years ago, our mail carrier wrote us a note telling us to put our names on the mailbox. So we did, and the next day, it was stuffed with a bunch of mail for the former tenants (whose names WEREN'T on the mailbox). I wonder how much mail we just straight up haven't gotten over the years?

edit: lol

YO CASEY (and anyone else who might know the answers to these questions)

1. Would I like Harvest Moon?
2. If the answer to question 1 is "yes", which Harvest Moon game should I get?

THIS IS IMPORTANT

stuff I've cooked lately

(taking a page from Laura's book)

-Coq au Vin (or, rather, Quorn au Vin). Didn't bother marinating the quorn fillets or pre-cooking the "bacon". DELICIOUS and also so dang rich.

-Eggplant and chicken (quorn) stir-fry. I also put asparagus in it. It didn't need the asparagus. On the side: homemade turnip tsukemono.

-Chickpeas, kale, and tomatoes with preserved lemons

-Spinach and tofu with peanut sauce over rice: super easy and doesn't require you to stand over a hot stove. Mix 1 can of coconut milk, 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 1 tbs of soy sauce, 2 tsp of lemon juice, and a couple of squirts of hot sauce. Heat it until it bubbles, then turn the heat off and let it sit. Lightly steam the spinach (or broccoli, if you like), and just cube the tofu and don't bother to cook it. Put it all in a bowl on top of rice.

-Vegetarian feijoada, which didn't call for kale but I PUT KALE IN ANYWAY and it was good

-This carrot soup, only I used store-bought pesto and didn't bother adding the two extra cups of water, because it's delicious when it's nice and thick

-Asparagus Parmesan pain Perdu with Homemade Tomato Jam AAAaaaaaa so good and so easy to make!!

Writer's Block: Word for Word

How many (if any) songs do you know by heart? What are they?


View 504 Answers



The only song I know by heart is Yello's "Oh yeah". In fact, it's the only song I've ever heard. I was raised in a Skinner Box and three times a day, with meals, my captors play "Oh Yeah". I am also rewarded with "Oh Yeah" if I complete a task in a satisfactory fashion. I am so alone, but so enthusiastic. Oh Yeah.

hoo boy, Lynn

So, instead of ending For Better or For Worse, which was really long past its heyday, Lynn Johnston started doing new strips in the style of the earliest FBoFW following Elly's adventures raising Michael and an infant Elizabeth. Okay. Could be good, I guess?

Except, in light of Johnston's husband (the model for John in the strip) leaving her for one of his coworkers, she seems to be using the strip to work out her issues with him. Vide:

http://www.fborfw.com/strip_fix/archives/003593.php
http://www.fborfw.com/strip_fix/archives/003435.php

(the last one's particularly creepy)

I mean, I wouldn't want FBoFW to continue on as syrupy as it got during its final years, but this opposite extreme is a little unsettling.

Year-end Blowout!!!

While supplies last, get yourself some comic books at the low, low price of FREE! Everything must go!

- ESSENTIAL X-MEN Volumes 1-8! Enjoy the adventures of your favorite mutants, from Giant-Sized X-Men #1, through the groundbreaking Dark Phoenix saga, to the stupid and phoned-in Inferno!

- Hernandez Satyricon! Assorted comics by indie darlings Los Bros. Hernandez!

- Epileptic Vol. 1! Caveat Lector - there is no Epileptic Vol. 2: Fantagraphics thought it was a "great idea" to publish Vol. 1, and then release a one-volume complete edition. Jerks.

ALSO:

- Assorted New Yorker issues! Get some culture in you!

- Three volumes of Awesome Comic Fantasy, perfect for the "genre" lover!

And if you act now, I'll throw in some FREE citrus fruit, to chase away those winter "blahs"!

2008 Year in Review

BEST MOVIE OF 2008

I saw two new movies this year, both of them based on comic books. Iron Man was good, but The Dark Knight was better. Congratulations, Batman!

BEST BOOK OF 2008

Didn't read any books published this year; best book I read this year that I hadn't read before was Michael Bywater's Lost Worlds.

BEST ALBUM OF 2008

Gonna give this one to Beyoncé because I like Beyoncé. Didn't buy her album, though. Hold on, I did buy new music this year - Einstürzende Neubatuen's "Jewels" and The Residents' "The Bunny Boy". They were both great.

What excitement will 2009 hold?
