I wish more people took the time to actually get to know what a person is about *before* they made up their minds.

Cattiness is a real drag and there is no need for it. It was pointless in school and has no place at work. I'm sure the 'new girl' appreciates that you took the time to talk to her.

OH hell yes about time someone commented on this! It's hard enough to be respected in a male dominated field, but to have women rip on us too? UGH

My friend Sally & her husband were contesting my redheads theory with blondes. Ainsley Hayes, Donna Moss, later on the other staffer (I haven't gotten there yet). I still think there are more characters with red, or serious red highlights.

Yeah I also LOVED the cliche, as I love Miss Marple, and Agatha Christie, and wishing upon wish the hot young husband was not the murderer.

i love joss whedon. and i liked last night's episode, even if the solve-the-murder at-a-wealthy-estate plot is a bit cliche.

or the worst of the worst on today's shows... Grey's Anatomy

Those actors have to read their lines and then think "Do I REALLY have to talk like that? who talks like that?"

Good article Anna!

Yeah TV has htat challenge with exposition. I never watch CSI. I just couldn't get over all of the loose long hair and tight button-downs. the only forensic person I've seen in trials actually totally goofed the job- and she was probably a new hire with the influx of CSI-recruits, kids coming out of associate degree programs wanting to look hot while envisioning guns penetrating pillows, or something.

I keep meaning to do a post or a story where everyone talks like CSI, where they explain every single thing they're doing day to day..."Hi I'm riding the N Judah" "Ah Yes, the N Judah, a trolley system which uses electricity to drive a car on rails to your destination..."

Hi Sean
Yeah you do a hard boiled egg, then cube it (roughly chop is OK)

Re: Moroccan Stew

sean_mcgee — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 18:34:43 -0000

The cooked egg. Is it cooked before you saute? And if so, is it boiled or scrambled?

xhtmlcss — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 09:28:39 -0000

what about a linux command like: "kill -9" ?
A "kill -9" just causes the process to die; it gets no chance to do any cleanup :-)
