If you trust Wikipedia, here's what it says: "The methanol produced by the metabolism of aspartame is absorbed and quickly converted into formaldehyde and then completely converted to formic acid, which, due to its long half life, is considered the…

Just an example of how pizza, coffee and juice can all get along. (Though I would probably give up pizza before coffee, if forced to make that choice).
-
I just got back from brunch where I head a breakfast pizza (egg, tomato, potato chunks, sausage and cheese - maybe another ingredient or two, but those were the main ones) and coffee. After we ate, we had mimosas because they couldn't serve alcohol …

I'm drawing now, too! Scmerrill

Four of the six statements about brewer's yeast contain the word "might": "... might help you ..." "... might also help ..." "... might also help ..." "... might alter ..." I'm not convinced of its benefits.

Who's ready for next Thursday?

I'm willing to drop a few bills to play, too. How about Thursday, March 15, for a mini-tourney?
-
I don't remember us playing before, but maybe. Though if you played someone good, it probably wasn't me. I would rate myself as OK for a casual player.

I heard a rumor that the handsome dude in the bow tie up there will be in Portland next month.

UHX Lifestyle code is giving me flashbacks to the '90s and the Geek Code.

Since you're not dead yet, can it be the "K.M. Merrill Commemorative Library"? It seems weird to want to remember you even though you're still around. Then again, I guess people can be forgotten while still alive so maybe it doesn't matter.

Is the fourth wave in Japan? "My boss won't let me make espressos," says the barista. "I need a year more, maybe two, before he's ready to let customers drink my shots undiluted by milk. And I'll need another whole year of practice after that if I …

0 seconds. It's a walk-up.

One more: "Police say the teen was home alone when Jeremy Olson kicked in the front door of his west Tulsa home. The teen confronted Olson, hitting him over the head with the sword. Olson ran from the scene and later called police claiming he'd…

Sword story: "As Samir Tawfik lay on an office floor at Georgia Tech, awaiting a death blow from a sword, he asked his assailant one question over and over." http://www.ajc.com/news/atlanta/tech-sword-victim-he-296662.html?cxtype=rss_news_81963

Maybe the server clock is using GMT (which is +8 or so from Pacific Time), and for some reason not adjusting for time zones in the iPhone version?

I just got a Kindle (the cheapest, e-ink one), and I've already bought 4 books. I slammed "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" in about two days so I bought the other two in the series, and I bought the Steve Jobs bio, which I've barely started.

I won about $70 on the cruise playing Roulette and $1/$2 no-limit (with a 10% rake!).

According to Mint, I spend between 500 and 600 a month on "food and groceries" (including coffee and alcohol). A large chunk of that is because I tend to eat out a lot, especially for lunch. I'm trying to get it down to $450 but I'm bad at brown-bag…

TPA on Christmas Day. (Bound for ATL.) Free WiFi!

I was internet-challenged on draft day, but I'm back online in time for the season. Good luck!

"At least there are benefits: mandatory cocktail lunches and afternoon naps." Screw health insurance and 401k's, can I come work for you?

December 5, 1999: "200 More Great Scrapbook Layout Ideas" It's marked as a gift order, but it was shipped to me.

Toast sandwich! That reminds of my dad's "jam sandwich" recipe: Take two pieces of bread and jam them together.

Just signed up. Glad I didn't know about it until after lunch (I ate 3 slices of pizza).

I've been in first class once. It was on one leg of a trip from Fairbanks to Sitka when I was in college. The plane was nearly empty; there might have been 5 people in there. I was super tired so as soon as I sat down I started to sleep (without p…
