thought for food
happycapA plate of freshly made french fries is a beautiful thing, especially when topped with gravy and mozzarella cheese. Tonight though I asked myself if my love for fries is actually a front for an obsession with ketchup. If there was a way to fry ketchup would I still love french fries? I'd like to think so, but fried shoestring ketchup sticks topped with bacon and hot sauce could be pretty delicious.

GumbabyThe Gumbaby Project is an attempt to gather together a directory of comments posted on blogs (and guestbooks, and other inappropriate places) by people apparently led astray by search engines. Certain threads on some sites seem to attract confusion over and over again. People arrive at a blog, mistake the author for a celebrity, an expert, or an authority, and they begin talking as if that's who was listening.

I really hate......Wanky websites that make you download and install a new plug-in before you can use them via a process which means you have to close all your browser windows except that one so suddenly all those tabs you have open that you want to record in some way require bookmarking which adds another foot or so to your bookmark list which is already horrendously unwieldy and is soon going to collapse under its own weight and become a bookmark black hole into which links vanish never to be seen again even though all you really wanted in the first place was a wee bit of info and a name and address.
However, run-on sentences with no punctuation are fine.
