I think there are two versions of KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) - I've seen the versions that are heavily sauced/marinated/dry-rubbed, and yes, some of it comes really close to the 31 Flavours of General Tso's.

The reason I came to this article.

Also, it's near Nob Hill. Too far from my natural commute and I only get a half-hour lunch.

There was a Japanese bakery that did smoked salmon in brioche squares (funky square muffin-like pan, I'm guessing) and those were delish. Piroshkis seem to be all over the place, texture-&-consistency-wise, depending on who's making them, though. I've had ones that are like elongated stuffed buns and I've had ones…

Sympathies and condolences.

This seems too short. Jean Smart for Random Roles!

I have, thanks to last year's Hugo Awards voter packet, a Chuck Tingle story. I've been afraid to read it, but I really think I should at some point. Also, is 'buckaroos' gender-neutral or just male-oriented?

In the midst of all this nonsense, Politico reported this:
