Makes sense I guess. It's cold as Hell (wait that doesn't seem to make any sense. Oh well) in Edmonton, and we all know fat hardens when it gets cold.

In Raleigh NC they're way ahead of them -- unless the council changes their minds, it's still being argued back and forth...

They've got robots to handle that now, don't they?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 03:58 PM on March 28, 2008
It's nice that they have videos.
I wonder who's happy job it is to watch the monitors in the sewer system...and how they keep their lunches down!

The city recommends people dump their grease into a container and store it in the fridge to harden, until they have enough to put a wick in to make a candle.
Or you could dump it on your dog's dinner.
Or you could use it help you get into your wet suit.
Or you could dunk the gerbil in it before you...

...put it in it's exercise ball?
Posted by: Wench Lizzy | 04:13 PM on March 28, 2008
I'm sure a few sticks of TNT fiber would solve everything.

Wench - is that what the kids are calling it these days?
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 04:15 PM on March 28, 2008
yeah, that's the ticket Wench, the old 'exercise ball'.
Posted by: wickedwitch | 04:16 PM on March 28, 2008
Yes, but just make sure it doesn't "roll down the stairs" or "get eaten by the dog".
Posted by: Wench Lizzy | 04:20 PM on March 28, 2008
The story is a metaphor (what's a meta for?)
{sorry, old joke) for most of the population today. Eating fatty stuff, clogging the arteries, then unclogging them with assorted medical devices.

*uses duct tape to tape fingers*
Soooo many other uses for the grease...but I must run along now...ta tas!
Posted by: Siouxie | 04:42 PM on March 28, 2008
Yes, Siouxie uses grease for those two, too.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | 04:44 PM on March 28, 2008
Is "blobs" a scientific term?
Posted by: Eleanor | 04:55 PM on March 28, 2008
Yes.
Posted by: Dr. Blob | 05:27 PM on March 28, 2008
Annie, only scented oil for the ta tas. El told me.

Sounds like a sewage line bypass or two might be in order.

Edmonton sucks! Fat apparently
Posted by: Tabi | 07:42 PM on March 28, 2008
I was blocked, yes blocked from the blog for about 2 hours, although I could go to any other web site, and when I discussed this with my Cox SWAT guy who was here earlier today 'fixing' things, he said, "Well, maybe Dave Barry just doesn't like you!"
The nerve.
Anyhoo, I'm back now and it doesn't seem like I missed much. No blog bar tonight?
Posted by: Eleanor | 09:25 PM on March 28, 2008
I think there was a mass blockage, El. The intertubes must have been temporarily routed through Edmonton.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 09:30 PM on March 28, 2008
No new posts from the last hour or so...so I think you're right, MTBlue. Here - shrimp cocktail for all, and your choice of liquid refreshments. Never did this before - ooops, here's the little napkins.
Posted by: SandyEggo | 09:37 PM on March 28, 2008
soooo - how's your day goin'?
*pours myself another*
Posted by: SandyEggo | 09:43 PM on March 28, 2008
Mmmmm, nice, horseradishy cocktail sauce! Thanks, Sandy. My day is winding down with a large Manhattan, following a very weird performance that I just saw at a local college theatre. I think the acting company, director and writer beat me to the Manhattans, but I'm not complaining.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 09:46 PM on March 28, 2008
Good Lord what was that all about Meanie? What were they attempting to perform?
Posted by: Doc Rick | 10:00 PM on March 28, 2008
It's the Bookbinder brand cocktail sauce from Sam's - can't beat it.
*pours myself another screwdriver*
*remembering I used to LOVE Manhattans*
hmmm - we're just blocks from the local college theater, and never think to take advantage of it.

It was an examination on how personal monetary choices are made. After giving each audience member 5 singles, the audience would choose from one of eight short vignettes, acted out in pantomime with sound and dialogue heard through headphones, dealing with some kind of monetary issue or choice. There were six intervals for watching one of the vignettes, and they each "cost" a dollar or two. It was done in a sort of laboratory setting, and there were a couple of song and dance numbers thrown in, for "free", between the vignettes. These seemed to all be part of a parody on the fact that the audience had chosen to spend their time and money watching this performance.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 10:13 PM on March 28, 2008
Edmonton, oh Edmonton
I still see your sewers cloggin’
I still watch the fat start blobbin’
How much grease has run through pipes in Edmonton?
Edmonton, oh Edmonton
I can see your basements floodin’
You don’t want to let that crud in
It won’t be fun to clean up Edmonton
I can see fat getting cold; it hardens
Then gets stuck; backs up sewer lines
So, Canucks, think--next time you dine,
Put your grease away when you’re done
Edmonton, oh Edmonton
I am so afraid you’re dying
Because I've watched you buying Crisco by the ton
In Edmonton, in Edmonton
Posted by: Just Ducky | 10:15 PM on March 28, 2008
OK, this is a long shot as I don't the song too well, and I'm on my second large Manhattan, and I'm resisting the impulse to say it's "Oh Tannenbaum" because I know it isn't ... but, is that based on "Galveston", JD?
*hicSNORK*

If it's a sobriety test, I'm just gonna turn my paper in .....

I can't find the test either. I guess I flunk.
Posted by: Cat R | 10:33 PM on March 28, 2008
Um...they posted it and then removed it. I'm not crazy!! Honest!!
Posted by: Siouxie | 10:36 PM on March 28, 2008
Hi, Cat! I really like your "slinkin'."
I hate to sing and run, but I must flap off for awhile. Might be back a little later. 'Bye for now!
Posted by: Just Ducky | 10:37 PM on March 28, 2008
What up peeps? Are we moving to a new thread sometime soon?

Sioux - repost here? Let's see what happens.
(I've never seen a sudden yank of a post that made it through. I blame Edmonton.)
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 10:40 PM on March 28, 2008
Hi, Ducky! And I love your singin'!
Anybody else getting booted out of the website a lot today? Like, shut down the browser and try again booted?
Posted by: Cat R | 10:41 PM on March 28, 2008
Meanie, I think Dave or judi were just trying to see if the blog was still broken. It just said.. Test. It's gone now. Someone else posted before me, can't remember who now.
Posted by: Siouxie | 10:43 PM on March 28, 2008
Not quite that bad for me, Cat. I was out for awhile and trying to see what was going on here on my BlogBerry, and noticing that the comments were very few and far between. But I wasn't trying to post anything until I got home, when it worked fine (except for me seeing double).
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 10:44 PM on March 28, 2008
Blog isn't broken, apparently. Bloggers, maybe .....
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 10:46 PM on March 28, 2008
I didn't even know there was a problem. I only came online right after Ducky posted her song. Then I saw the next thread.
IT WAS THERE!!!
*checks her wine*
ok..I've only had ONE glass.
Posted by: Siouxie | 10:51 PM on March 28, 2008
I've been broken for years which might explain why I didn't notice anything. Still, it's better to be broken than live through this.

I believe you, Siouxie. I've seen posts appear and disappear in the blink of an eye. Two blinks, maybe.
They don't call judi the Stealth Blogette for nuthin'.
Posted by: Cat R | 10:55 PM on March 28, 2008
Hiya, Diva!!
Posted by: Cat R | 10:56 PM on March 28, 2008
I can only guess there was an actual problem, Siouxie. I was out for awhile, and when I came back it seemed like an unusually long time had passed for there to have been no more comments posted. El made reference to a problem (above), also.
If it's the Apocalypse, I'd just like to know. There's no hope for me, so I just want as much advance notice as I can get.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 10:56 PM on March 28, 2008
*SMACKS* Rick!! good thing I have quick reflexes and stopped it before it did any permanent brain damage.

Hm, Blue. I don't believe I've ever been served by you before! I'll take a Kahlua and cream, Sir.
Posted by: Diva | 11:06 PM on March 28, 2008
One Corona and lime for Diva, right away!
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:07 PM on March 28, 2008
Agreed. One appletini for me, Meanie. Or anything, really.
Well, not anything.
(Diva, see what you started when you told me about LOLcats?)
Posted by: Cat R | 11:07 PM on March 28, 2008
Cat, I will FIRMLY accept that blame!! :D I will not touch that bat urine Coors, either.
Mmmmm....LIME!! *blissful sigh* OK. This is better than the K&C tonight.
Posted by: Diva | 11:12 PM on March 28, 2008
Since I'd been having problems with my puter earlier in the day, I thought it was just me and had convinced Cox SWAT guy of this. And we ran tests and did all sorts of stuff that I now know we didn't need to. Ninety minutes of my life I'll never get back.
In other news, they're playing Hide The Salami on the History Channel. Really.
I think I need something stronger than an appletini, even though they're yummy.
JD on the rocks, please.
Posted by: Eleanor | 11:13 PM on March 28, 2008
I opened the bar above a couple hours ago, for the first time for me, with shrimp cocktail, etc., during the "blackout" - gawd, I wonder how many of us got pregnant in the last two hours - not me.
Posted by: SandyEggo | 11:13 PM on March 28, 2008
*Looks around for apples*
Er, will a Clementini be OK, Cat?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:15 PM on March 28, 2008
Well, before I have legal bodies acting against me, I'll just pour some of this JD over these here rocks and slide it on down to Eleanor, a favored client of mine.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:19 PM on March 28, 2008
I'm almost certain that I'm not pregnant, but then again, I'm not at all certain that I'm aware of what's happening around me .....
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:21 PM on March 28, 2008
Lime, you say, Diva? Here you go. Just lending a hand, Meanie.
Hi, Sandy -- yes, you did, and I can't believe I missed. the. shrimp. mmmpurrrrmmmm
Eleanor, I can't help it. "Cox SWAT" sounds like something from Siouxie's favorite catalog. 'Splain, please?
(Meanie --if that's made with Clementine tangerines, YES!)

Posted by: Diva | 11:25 PM on March 28, 2008
Cat, assistance is an insult to my natural capabilities wholeheartedly (and desparately) welcomed at this point.
And, clementine-wise, you're quite correct. Coming right up (if I can manage it)!
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:26 PM on March 28, 2008
I'm having champagne and celebrating. The academic review panel accepted my master's thesis today. I am now officially done!!!
Posted by: ArcticAl | 11:28 PM on March 28, 2008
I'll take a beer Sandy and if nobody is watching Memphis destroy Michigan St. maybe we could put this in the DVD player just for grins.
Posted by: Doc Rick | 11:28 PM on March 28, 2008
Beautiful rocks, Blue, thanks. :)
Cat, my cable company is Cox. When you get to be such a PITA to their regular tech support people, they turn you over to their SWAT team. Yes, that's really what they call it. It's pretty cool actually, except for one of them sort of stalking me. But I digress. You don't call a regular number with a menu, you have cell phone numbers. You don't make an appointment with some 2 or 4 hour window. I called about 9 this morning and someone was here at 11a.m.
They've rewired my entire house, twice, because I have internet, TV and phone, they update everything, and they don't charge because they feel bad that you were previously jerked around by regular tech support.
So it's pretty cool. :)
Posted by: Eleanor | 11:29 PM on March 28, 2008
Congratulations, Al!!!! WTG!!!
Posted by: Siouxie | 11:31 PM on March 28, 2008
El has a Cox problem. heh! ;-)
Posted by: Siouxie | 11:34 PM on March 28, 2008
WOOHOO!!!! Way ta go Al! I haven't a clue as to what comes next for you but big time congrats from Texas. Now fix everything since you're so smart. ;)
Posted by: Doc Rick | 11:35 PM on March 28, 2008
Thanks, I'm very happy, hence the champagne.
Posted by: ArcticAl | 11:35 PM on March 28, 2008
*Ices up a serious congratulatory beverage of choice for the Man From The Arctic*
Name it, sir - I could probably come moderately close. Alternatively, I could refresh your champagne glasses with the right stuff.
Good goin'!
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:36 PM on March 28, 2008
Well folks, I'm off to bed. Ya'll have a great evening and sweet dreams. Buenas Noches.
Posted by: Siouxie | 11:43 PM on March 28, 2008
Congrats, Arctic! Your post wasn't there when i posted. WTG! I remember when I found out that I passed the bar what an exhilarating feeling it was, and I'm sure this is similiar - you're done!
Posted by: Eleanor | 11:43 PM on March 28, 2008
Arctic Al, congratulations!!! Three cheers for our brainy blogger!
El, I kind of thought it was something like that. Sounds like a decent deal. Except for the stalking.
In this day and age, with caller ID and cell phones, etc., "capturing" someone's "real" call-back number is like finding the Holy Grail. I just went through that with my (former) human resources department yesterday. Once I got the real name and the real phone number of a real person with a real brain on the other end, I ain't lettin' it go.
Posted by: Cat R | 11:44 PM on March 28, 2008

Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 11:47 PM on March 28, 2008
Al, I don't know how many years elapsed between your undergraduate degree and your master's, but if it hasn't been too many, then I am sorry to tell you that you're really not "done".
See, about five to ten years after it's all over, you'll wake up at 4AM in a sweat, sincerely convinced that you are back in school, somehow have accidentally blown off the entire semester's coursework and lectures for a required class, and TODAY is the FINAL EXAM for which you are ALREADY 35 minutes LATE and must RUN to the OTHER side of campus and throw yourself on the mercy of the professor.
Oh, and when you get there, you realize you are naked.
(Then, once you change the bedsheets, you are DONE!)
Posted by: Cat R | 11:54 PM on March 28, 2008
Al! WOO-HOO FOR YOU! Massive congratulations on your masters!
Cat, you been in my head?
Posted by: Just Ducky | 11:59 PM on March 28, 2008
Doc Rick, I haven't seen the Smokey movies since they came out in theaters, back in 197cough-cough-cough.
That was a great clip. I loved the part where Burt grins at the camera and takes off again.
Posted by: Cat R | 12:00 AM on March 29, 2008
It's been fun!
*zips out*
Posted by: Eleanor | 12:00 AM on March 29, 2008
Well Cat first undergrad degree was in 1978 (yes I'm old). Second undergrad degree was in 2005. Then I started the Masters program and will graduate in June of 2008. In my dream I'm naked, but everyone else is too and the exam is a practical demonstration of naked twister, so it's still a pretty good dream...
Posted by: ArcticAl | 12:01 AM on March 29, 2008
You too, Ducky? I know at least two other people who have had that dream!!
Posted by: Cat R | 12:01 AM on March 29, 2008
Within the limits of my grasp at this point, Cat, you're saying that Al may be done in the physical sense, but not in the pyschic sense?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 12:01 AM on March 29, 2008
Cat, TV master control operators have that same dream. Somebody tells us to go to a commercial break and the equipment goes kablooey. I've lived that nightmare and it ain't fun.
Posted by: Doc Rick | 12:02 AM on March 29, 2008
Yes, Cat. I've even dreamed that there was some kind of mistake and my HIGH SCHOOL contacts me to let me know I never graduated, and if I want to graduate, I have to come back to San Antonio and attend classes at the school, in person even, to get my diploma.
*Shudders*
Posted by: Just Ducky | 12:07 AM on March 29, 2008
Sometimes we need to remember from whence we came Cat. The grin is the signature to the scene. Back when Burt was Burt. *heads over to the old fogey section of the blog bar*
Posted by: Doc Rick | 12:08 AM on March 29, 2008
Meanie, you got it! Al, simul nekkid dreamin'. Early graduation present.
(My own situation had a "gap" of sorts. I transferred took haitus gathered life experience dropped out as an undergrad back in 1981 and didn't start a long new 6-year night school path to my BS until 1987. So I had "the dream" a couple of times in my life -- good times.)
Posted by: Cat R | 12:09 AM on March 29, 2008
LOL, Doc and Ducky. Not too stressed out, were we?
Posted by: Cat R | 12:11 AM on March 29, 2008
*shudders* I'm stuck with the Actor's Nightmare as it applies to opera. On stage ready to walk on and yet, I have never practiced the music or even know the story. UGH!!
Posted by: Diva | 12:12 AM on March 29, 2008
*Wishes belated "goodnight" to Siouxie*
Cat, the funny thing is, I did really well in college and enjoyed almost all of my classes. I'm not sure where the stress dream came from. I just know it always involved a class that I couldn't possibly b.s. my way through do well in without extensive study beforehand, like an advanced math class.
*Shudders again*
Posted by: Just Ducky | 12:16 AM on March 29, 2008
Diva, that's got to be a realistic one! I saw a TV special recently when Marie Osmond forgot the lyrics to a song she was singing (live, I think). Her lovely brothers helped her through, but you could just feeeel the pain!
Oh, and last night I was surfing and ran across Don't Forget the Lyrics with Wayne Brady. The guest contestant was REO Speedwagon's Kevin Cronin. He had to sing the lyrics correctly to one of his own songs as part of the climb to a million bucks for charity. You knew he'd get it right, but when they put those lyric blanks up there word by word... (nail biting)!
Yeah, Ducky, it's a pretty common syndrome, I think. The drive to do well...?
Well, Mr R has finally come home and I think I will turn in and try for a nice, dreamless sleep! He can keep the Dance Dance Revolutionaries from rattling the walls. Nite, blogits!
Posted by: Cat R | 12:25 AM on March 29, 2008
Before I was about to graduate for my BS, I learned from a professor that a fellow student, who was a close friend, was about to get an incomplete for not providing some window-dressing type details on his final exam poject. I alerted my friend, who figured out that he had left what he thought were unimportant details out of his final exam project, to the situation. He made the necessary corrections and convinced the professor, with heroic sucking up, to accept them late.
To this day, my friend, in essence, kisses my feet whenever he sees me for sparing him the very well-known (at this college) nightmare of wrestling with the administrative nightmare of having some miniscule bit of a course unfulfilled. Many a student at my college has been surprised at their graduation to find their diploma not announced or awarded because of some bureuacratic failing.

Jeez...just when I come staggering in from an all-sangria evening, everyone goes home.
I'll leave the recipe here for late arrivals; my hostess reluctantly explained her secret:
"Take a gallon of Carlo Rossi sangria, and pour it into a pitcher."
Posted by: Betsy | 01:08 AM on March 29, 2008
Cat, if you can still spell 'exponentially,' you haven't had enough to drink, either.
I think I had enough. I just line danced to AC/DC. I think. And Heart's 'Rhiannon.' We shoulda been struck by a country lightning bolt. Just plain sacreligious somehow. Now I feel dirty.

Morning, El. Another lovely week in paradise, eh?

Morning, Scott.
Well, it would be if it would just stay warm. And if I wasn't on Day 2 of dealing with septic tank issues.
Otherwise, it's all good. :)

Ew! Well, as long as you're up-wind it could be.

At least you're on the right thread, El.
Mornin', folks. I think there's some leftover cold pizza if anyone's hungry.

Y A W N . . .
The sleepover is over. The Dance Dance Revolutionaries have been fed raspberry pancakes (yay for Mom) and the coffee is starting to kick in...
A day at the mall is planned with the daughters. Bathing suit shopping. Thank goodness it is for them and not me. At their age, that is still considered fun. At my age, notsomuch.
MORNIN', BLOGITS!

Waves raspberry pancakes under the blogits' noses.
Come out, come out, wherever you are...

Oooh, rats, those look great. But I just had surrender French toast.

Meanie, have a pancake. I don't make 'em every day.
Posted by: Cat R | 12:31 PM on March 29, 2008
You *burp* talked me into it, Cat. *Excuse me* Mighty fine.

Alas, the shoppers beckon. Nothing gets them moving on a Saturday quite like Mom's debit card.
*Puts out juice, pancakes, coffee, coffee, coffee, cheese danish (- SLAP! - that danish is for Eleanor -), and assorted bagels, scrambled eggs, etc. for the hungry blogits. And a Pepto for Meanie.*
Have a lovely Saturday. I hope to check in this evening for more merriment. *Slinks out®*

*swipes pancake, leaves more merriment for Cat.*

Posted by: Eleanor | 03:04 PM on March 29, 2008
Hey, no need for war El. I'll just split the danish with ya and give you back your zip. *offers olive branch in the form of a Shiner Beer*

Typical guy. Shows up with a beer and half a pastry and assumes he'll be forgiven.
*smacks Doc with olive branch*

Hey, it's better than the machete and I like olives.
