kyburgLet's have the "Talk Soup" version of this week's entries on my Friend's list:
From![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cadhla's journal:
She's decided to make potato leek soup.
I have obtained the necessary vegetables, chopped, spindled, mutilated and abused them, and set them to boiling. In the process, I've learned an important lesson. Here it is:
Leeks can explode.
Seriously. Sliced leeks dropped into broiling pig fat don't just settle down to becoming unhealthy. No, they protest by suddenly generating massive amounts of steam and then becoming airbourne. Once airbourne, they have a very good chance of sticking to your ceiling and then -- just for kicks -- burning merrily.
autographedcat offers some perspective on just how awful some billboards could be:
In discussion last night about the "God says..." billboards, we came up with the notion of a "Cthulhu says..." billboard campagin. Among the suggestions:
"Got ketchup?" --Cthulhu
"I save. I may want a midnight snack." --Cthulhu
"Have you read my book? Big mistake, bub." --Cthulhu
"What part of 'I would run if I were you' did you not understand?" --Cthulhu
"Big Bang? No, Big Buffet..."
Feel free to add your own. :)
Nanowrimo has claimed many of my friends this week.
lokisfern is going on a trip (such a lovely way with words):
Well, I'm off to Ottawa as of the buttcrack of dawn on Friday, so I shan't reappear in this space until laaaaaate Sunday night, or perhaps Monday.
Hope she has a good time....
And last, but not least, one more look at the $180,000 shotgun shack from Southern California:
And believe it or not, it's already been sold. *shakes head* I give up.
