- Z&M and 4 Loko? Is she a professor of Crapology? -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 14, 08:34 1
  - Anthopology, the 4 Loko was because she heard from students that it "worked" and the movie was because I said I liked Dogma. - ceregon Feb 14, 08:47
- "hopefully"? you have no choice? -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:28 5
  - She's a professor at a neighboring college and there's a fair amount of pressure from mutual friends trying to get us together. -- nm - ceregon Feb 14, 08:30 4
    - oh, whatever. I hate that. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:31

- It it smell of tear gas? have some bullet holes in the package? -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 14, 12:17
- I ended up tasting some halvah after I mailed your package and disliked it, so I was nervous you'd hate it, esp since I included 2. - Hotkiss Feb 14, 08:32 9
  - it's an acquired taste, I think. I like it on toast with butter (which makes it caramelly). -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:34 8
    - where have you tried it before? -- nm - Hotkiss Feb 14, 08:42 7
      - In Brooklyn. It's popular throughout the middle east. I got it at Sahadi's (awesome gourmet Lebanese market) -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:43 6
        
        shadi's is great...nm - x Feb 14, 08:57
        
        I've never been but my foodie brooklyn friends rave about that place. -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 08:50 3
        
        they do mail order! -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:53 2
        
        I would have no idea what to get. - znufrii Feb 14, 08:59 1
        
        you gotta. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 09:01
        
        here's a link to Sahadi -- which is where you should go when you're back in the US and craving Middle Eastern Food. - loosilu Feb 14, 08:49
- HK is a great stalker. I believe I was one of her first stalkees - waaay back. -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 08:32 4
  - you were my first stalkee and I was sooo nervous about it! -- nm - Hotkiss Feb 14, 08:43 1
    - Your college-ruled notepaper gave you away :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 08:46
  - I think I was your stalker a couple of times. You're also a great stalker. :) -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:33 1

how does Urgent Care differ from an ER? -- nm - Diva Feb 14, 08:21 13
- they can't handle anytyhing serious (no surgery) and they have nowhere to keep you if you need to stay. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:26
- Urgent Care is like a regular doctor's office, but open at odd hours - con_carne Feb 14, 08:23 2
  - With UC, I got to pay just my copay, vs. with an ER, you have to pay $???????? -- nm - con_carne Feb 14, 08:24 1
    - ER tends to be more, but it really depends on your plan. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:26
- Just the location. If you suddenly go into cardiac arrest, they can't haul you upstairs. -- nm - Mop Feb 14, 08:22
- Urgent Care as I understand it is more coughs, colds, minor breaks... - Mel Profit Feb 14, 08:22 6
  - But still they will xray you up and down and do all the work they can so they can bill the provider. -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 14, 08:36
  - this. -- nm - TFox Feb 14, 08:30
  - oh, okay - thx! nmbmel - Diva Feb 14, 08:22 2

      - the pity part of it is nmbacouplechattingaboutceramics - Diva Feb 14, 08:26
  - yup. It's to keep minor cases from clogging up the ER -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 08:22
- Urgent care != hospital? -- nm - oblique Feb 14, 08:22

It's finally been announced, Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead/There Will Be Blood fame has scored one of our films. - LMS Feb 14, 08:15 3

- There Will Be Blood is still one of the creepier soundtracks. - Mel Profit Feb 14, 08:21

Bitter-sweet V-day memories...Bill would have been 68 today. -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 08:15 12
- Sorry, hon. -- nm - Spawn Feb 14, 08:44
- Why was he "Induna" Bill? -- nm - David Feb 14, 08:39 4
  - It's a Zulu term for 'leader' or 'chief' -- (link) - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 08:45 3
    - That's awesome. Zulu Ambassador Bill was my friend. -- nm - David Feb 14, 08:50
    - Wow. I always thought of it as "chief". Maybe I heard that when I was a kid or something. -- nm - Spawn Feb 14, 08:48 1
      - We first used it for our dog :) A Rhodesian Ridgeback - Kulu Induna = Big Chief. -- nm - MojaveMeg Feb 14, 08:56

- Sorry, Meg. I'm sure you two had some great V-day memories together. -- nm - Inigo Feb 14, 08:19
- I am incredibly sorry for your lose. I can't imagine. But hopefully the memories are of some solace. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 14, 08:17
- *hugs* -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 14, 08:16
Seriously, I think the only way for Gaga to top herself next year will be by faking her own death live on the red carpet. -- nm - znufrii Feb 14, 08:14 6
- Already done by Amanda Palmer. -- nm - Amy Feb 14, 08:15
- actual sex during the performance -- nm - Beaker Feb 14, 08:15 4
  - She will actually lay eggs on stage. -- nm - Spawn Feb 14, 08:45
  - explict sex doesn't seem to be her thing, oddly. -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:35
  - ...with the egg? -- nm - Inigo Feb 14, 08:16 1
    - You're weird -- nm - con_carne Feb 14, 08:25
*enters B2 inside an egg* -- nm - loosilu Feb 14, 08:11 6
- HAH ... I didn't watch the show last night but saw the boards and caught it on a page today - that's hilarious! -- nm - JenBro Feb 14, 08:21
