In fact I'm probably going back next month with Inga and some more friends. All the photos are on Flickr as usual.

Mark Kirk is sponsoring a bill to ban access to Second Life in schools and libraries because of lack of robust age verification. The American Libraries Association as well as others oppose the legisltation.

    Good job Rep. Kirk. It's not like there is anything important like a war, recession, housing meltdown, global food crisis, and runaway energy prices to worry about. Kirk is also anti-net neutrality and pro government eavesdropping. He just loves legislating new ways to protect us from ourselves. Wish our Representative would work on real issues, but that takes some real work.

Knowing she has an unnatural love for casseroles, I tried this new recipe for Chile Relleno Casserole. To keep it veggie friendly, I stuffed the peppers with a black bean/chihuahua cheese mix. It was good, but the batter was a touch to 'eggy'. I'll have to play with that part of the recipe a bit.

    BTW - Food photos are harder than I thought! These are the first ones that came out halfway decent.

It might be the first and only rap dedicated to the love of tea. I can't get "When I say 'Earl Grey', you say 'Yes, Please' / When I say 'Assam', you say 'Lovely'" out of my head.
