nic at night: National Novel Writing Month strikes again
http://nicatnight.blogspot.com/2006/11/national-novel-writing-month-strikes.html
When all the best thinking gets done. National Novel Writing Month strikes again. For the fifth year in a row, I'm participating in National Novel Writing Month. The difference between this year and the past 3 years is that I might actually make the word count this year, and win, as I did in 2002. Dana's former place of residency, to a word war, on behalf of our new home town of University Park. But we're currently trailing them pretty dramatically. Posted by nic @ 7:38 PM.

When all the best thinking gets done. So, what is. The "right" reason to go on a show like "the bachelor"? Having tuned in out of a morbid curiosity regarding the car crash looking for a place to happen that is the o'connell brothers, I am fascinated by the moral cache that seems to come from being on the show for the right reasons. Or am I missing something obvious? Before it seems that I'm rearranging my schedule for this show, I must say that I'm satisfying most of my curiosity by surfing the web duri...

When all the best thinking gets done. After picking berries, I've been going to the movies. And I have this to say about the movies: going alone, in the middle of the afternoon, in grubby clothes that are a mix of pj style pants and biking tops? Truly, it is fun, I'm enjoying it a lot. Especially since the same bored teenagers take my money every day. Since they're Canadian, they're not surly or rude, but since I'm. Don't they have skateboards? Don't they have friends with cars?

When all the best thinking gets done. We went to see tmbg. Last thursday. it's weird to see a band live for the first time after listening to them for 15 years. it was great. I highly recommend it. Posted by nic @ 4:40 PM 0 comments. The past couple of weeks have flown by. Of note, classes started. they're full. of students. whom I'm now generally 10 years older than. I then celebrated labor day by, well, laboring. we did celebrate labor day eve by having a house-warming grillfest, so it was all good.

When all the best thinking gets done. Not having ever been to a demolition derby, I didn't expect the one at the montgomery county fair. To be so much fun. it rocked. I could do without inhaling carcinogens for hours on end, but the smashing and yelling and fires breaking out completely made up for it. Several funnel cakes and a ferris wheel ride later, we called it a night. but not before we wandered through the animal section and got snarled at by the pigs. Posted by nic @ 1:37 PM 0 comments.

nic at night: stocking up on curries for the winter
http://nicatnight.blogspot.com/2006/11/stocking-up-on-curries-for-winter.html
When all the best thinking gets done. Stocking up on curries for the winter. From The Vegetarian Epicure. 6 medium-size russet potatoes [I used 12 red ones]. 3 tbs Ghee [I used safflower oil]. 1 tsp each salt, cumin seeds, turmeric, ground coriander. 1/2 tsp each mustard seeds, cayenne pepper [I doubled all of the spices because I find the original recipe too mild]. 2/3 cup cooked peas [I used frozen cut green beans, because the peas were totally freezer burned]. Curry of Eggplant and Potatoes. 2 1/2 cup...

Bee Policy: October 2006
http://www.beepolicy.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Those who have handled the sciences have been either empiricists or dogmatists. Empiricists are like ants, who only collect things and make use of them. Rationalists are like spiders, who weave webs out of their own bodies. But the bee has a middle policy: it extracts material from the flowers. Of the gardens and meadows, and digests and transforms it by its own powers.". Monday, October 09, 2006. Bad logic meets good science. Mostly I keep Truth Tables. But I've just posted a critique of a New York Times.
