I just finished reading Harry Potter #4 (The Goblet of Fire), and I must say it's a much darker read than the rest of 'em. I completely forgot this book was supposed to be for youngsters by page 52.
High: I have two more unopened books waiting for me at home!
Low: I *must* get my homework done tonight.
Planning a dinner party on Friday, and trying to figure out what the menu should be. What goes well with game hens?
See over there -->
Heaven
must be missing an angel.
Missing one angel, child

I was on hold for an inhumane amount of time.

Some e-mail lurve.
Today is a day of fun e-mail. From one intrepid co-worker:
Two minutes past eight on Wednesday night marks a millennial mathematical curiosity with time and date forming a rare triple palindrome -- 20:02, 20/02/2002 -- reading the same backwards and forwards.
Now, I know he must have copied that and forwarded it from somewhere, because neither the word "millennial" nor the word "palindrome" are in his vocabulary.
As a friend of mine mentioned when I forwarded this to him: "Don't know how "millennial" it is, since 21:12, 21/12/2112 will be the same."
The things one learns while wasting time.
In response to yesterday's Grin Source plea, a reader sent me this:

Sherry (who is currently having website problems) made my meatloaf last night and proclaimed it a success. Hah. Yet another convert.
However, in response to yesterday's Chili recipe, one reader wanted to know what Cholula is. I guess I haven't raved about it clearly enough. So, a search on Google found this website, which will apparently be done in March, dedicated to the stuff. I love how it says on the bottom, "If you have any urgent needs, call..." Urgent needs about hot sauce? But if you can't wait until March, you can go here, which has got to be the most comprehensive hot sauce list I've ever seen in my life.
Another thing I found out by searching for Cholula, is that it's a city in Mexico. Check it out. The internet is such a marvellous invention. Thanks, Dan Quail!
Here's something I haven't done in a while:
