PK, I don't know (or recall, if you ever mentioned it) where you live, but the double standards that exist on the Left Coast here are nearly unendurable. Indolent self-absorbed potheads railing at hard-working tax-paying tobacco smokers, for example...
Hey, Dandelion, Since this is miscellany, doing a crossword yesterday I discovered that "Cornelia" can be anagrammed into "Caroline"!
(Well, it was sort of exciting to me at the time...)

I really didn't need to know that, thanks.

Oh, Yea! Fun with names: Let's see, dandelion can be:
"No Deli, Dan" (If you are with someone named Dan and he asks if there is a Deli in the building where you work.
"Ed and Lion" (If you have a photo of your Uncle Ed standing next to a Lion at the Zoo).
"Don in deal" (You got four guys in a business deal, and someone asks if Don is going to be in on the deal. You say...)

With Braling II it's a tad tougher:
BrIIG NAIL (The kind of nail you use in a jail)
LAB RING II (The laboratory ring after Ring I)
IRAN BLIING (Atomic power talk)

And Nard Kordell translates to El Dark Lord N.
I keep telling you... that's not Nard, folks. The pearl necklace aliens ate his brains and all that. He's been body-snatched.

Introducing the new gothic latino badboy of rap, fresh off the mean streets of O.C.--El Dark Lord N.
Oh yeah, they call him Mr. Party.
Are you sure it wasn't a weather balloon you saw?
Nard, I don't even know you anymore. You never rapped before. That pearl necklace crew you're running with now have got your head all twisted. Now it's all about the BLING and the gold teeth. Sheesh, whatever happened to keeping it real?This message has been edited. Last edited by: grasstains,

All right, all right, break it up, you two! If you've time for anagramming, you've time to get over to the "Name The Ray Bradbury Story" thread and have a guess!

This is the OPH in Laguna Niguel and it is always packed, can't get in the place. Great food, lots of noise, we know the owners, and used to eat there a lot, but can't put up with the waiting anylonger. I love their Buckwheat hotcakes!

I love that giant apple thingy. There is a recipe for that online somewhere, I'll edit later and provide the link. I attempted to make them at home but only one came out right because you're supposed to bake them in an iron skillet, of which I only have one. The others were baked in round deep-dish pie tins, which just weren't thick enough to bake properly and get rising.
Yeah, I'm a professional cook. It's what I do for money five days a week. And for free every single day at home. I try to do something special every Sunday morning. That particular Sunday morning was disastrous, except for one very lucky boy who was in the right seat at the right time.
