What kind of person throws away a perfectly good pat of butter?
1 Comment Published by Becky S January 31st, 2006 in travels, foodHave I mentioned lately how great it is that the Lititz Record Express is online (and RSS-ified) after all these years? Some recent commentary:

A meme that turned into a story about drunk restaurant owners, dirty birds, and cigarette stashes
7 Comments Published by Becky S January 19th, 2006 in travels, miscellaneous fluffLast week, Whitebait tagged me for the “meme of four” that’s been going around. It’s a dilemma.

Life of Jesus in Christmas lights: the director’s cut
1 Comment Published by Becky S December 5th, 2005 in travels, wtf?Good Grief, did someone take my Jesus flogging photo and turn it into an animated gif?

Clair, resident Good Grief! heckler, asks about last week’s Gumby posts and wonders was I really out of town? Well, yeah, unless you know of a Philly In-N-Out Burger with palm trees in the parking lot.
I was lucky enough to attend a Macromedia convention in Anaheim with about a dozen of my new, super-secret […]
