Fresh, Tasty Links! Okay, I added some more favorite blogs to my Navigator Links section (and if you realized how hard adding links is for me, what with having to use CODE and stuff, you'd realize what a high honor I have bestowed on these favored few). I also clarified that the part of the Lileks site I like is the Institute of Official Cheer, with all the cool, old stuff and the funny commentary. I know some people like "The Daily Bleat," but it doesn't really float my boat, maybe because I'm not raising a small insect of my own, and because I have enough petty stuff going on in my own life that I don't need to hear about anybody else's. But that's just me. I'm sure I forgot to include many, many fine blogs, and I'll try to add them the next time I dare to fiddle with the Navigator Links again (and it may not be for a while, because having to write in secret computer language scares, me, since I'm afraid I'll make the whole blog disappear in a puff of smoke). But for now, I have Ketchup Cake to prepare and my cat to retrieve from the little neighbor girl who stole him (okay, the cat is a slut, willing to purr for anybody who pays attention to him, but I still should get him back). 7:40:31 PM  |
Oh, and it seems that President Bush has a new nickname: Beefman! So, tell World o' Crap (one of America's leading online news services) what you think Beefman's most notable super power is. We'll share the results with Congress, the President, and key members of his administration, providing they read this blog. 3:54:56 PM |
Urgent National Online Poll! Hey, if you want to make your voice heard about how the liberal media is so unfair to Rush in particular and conservatives in general, go here: Rush Poll
Oh, and Media Outlets and National Leaders: here are my opinions. I do support Rush -- as I support all drug addicts -- in that I hope he gets the treatment he needs. And yes, despite my already low opinion of him before, I do think less of him, knowing that he tried to bully recent miscarriage victims out of their pain meds. And has the media been fair to him? Well, more fair than he's been to other people with similar problems. Feel free to come to me anytime you want to know more of what I think. 3:47:02 PM |
Blink Your Way to Success And here's my favorite tip from TownHall's Neil Cavuto, and his important piece on how you surly, teenaged, minimum-wage-earning service workers can become sucessful like Neil, and more importantly, give him better service: Smile While You Work
I hope this idea changes your life as much as it did mine. 12:45:31 AM |
 So, thanks to the last-minute ballot stuffing by Ted (Ted, H. J. said that to tell you thanks, and that there'll be some extra Heinz bottles in your Christmas stocking this year), tomorrow I'll be buying some ketchup, walnuts, and some green cream cheese so I can make Spice Nut Cake. But I wanted to do something for you Dr. Pepper fans, so here's a cake recipe you can call your own: Choco-Devil Cake (It's one of Satan's favorites--he loves the combo of buttermilk and boiling Dr Pepper) 1/2 cup butter 2-1/2 cups brown sugar 3 eggs 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted, 1/2 cup buttermilk 2-1/4 teaspoons soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 2-1/4 cups cake flour 2 teaspoons vanilla 1 cup boiling Dr. Pepper. Cream butter, add brown sugar gradually creaming until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time, blending well after each addition. Add chocolate, slightly cooled. Add 1 teaspoon soda to buttermilk and 1-1/3 teaspoons soda and the salt to flour. Add flour and buttermilk alternatively. Add vanilla; mix in Dr. Pepper. Pour batter into 3 greased and floured 8-inch round pans. Bake at 375 degrees F 25-30 minutes. Cool on rack and frost with your favorite frosting. P.S.

And I'm sure they suceed admirably, and feel certain their tours have taught many a Texas schoolchild about the American dream, and how carbonated beverages defeated communism. If you're near Waco and want to learn about free enterprise and pop, I suggest you pay them a visit. 12:24:57 AM |
