True, but not an overwhelming difference.

Butternut squash and pumpkin are almost identical. You can use a butternut squash puree instead of canned pumpkin in any recipe.

That IS a fun fact! I knew I kept reading through all of these bullshit posts for something. :)

The Eclipse-class SD was in some EU book, I can't remember which one. But I'm almost positive it's longer than the Executor. I'll have to check the numbers when I get home.

Am I the only person who NEVER had these as a kid?

I've never understood berries or peaches/nectarines, which my Mom loves. I do, however, love bananas on Cheerios.

I've actually never seen one, and your comment made me curious.... Behind you 100%. Hideously tacky. They look like things my sister picks up at Goodwill simply for the wacky factor.

I think I'm going to have to go with those claiming mental illness. Maybe not Down's, and maybe not anything severe, but this just doesn't say "immature ragey person" to me. There is something about her sentence structure, defensiveness, and repetition that makes me think it's something else.

Actually, just heard it on the radio on the way in. Cuccinelli is leading 37% to 31% in the polls. I was very sad.

I came down here to say just this. I couldn't believe what I was reading.

Yes, please. When are you coming over to cook?

I definitely thought the same thing. As I read, I was like, "What, he didn't like garlic-braised bok choy? Oh, with dal.... Guacamole?! No WONDER he was unhappy."

Sounds like my area. "Blood is thicker than water", as they say. The folks around here would lose their mind at the thought of a stranger raising their grandchild.

My sister went up to get a bowl of ice cream one day, and my dad stopped her and said, "You don't need that. Do you want to end up like kontxesi?"

Why wait when there is money to be made?

I was really excited when I was put on Topamax. No headaches, lose some pounds, not be depressed.... But good God did I react to it. I was on it for one week, and I ended up throwing a complete fit and screaming at my boyfriend in a parking lot before driving off in a rage. I don't do public scenes; I was completely…

Definitely, getting your whole wardrobe worked on is a ridiculous amount of money. A taper and sleeves would run about $20 per shirt where I worked. I just don't understand why the concept of big boobs is so hard for people to work around. If it's so easy to fix at the machine, why can't they just make it that way to…

Is there a reason the seamstress can't shorten the sleeves for you, or is it a price issue? Most sleeves can be shortened, but some are more time consuming and therefore more costly.

I don't know if I'd go so far as saying I suffer from this, but I sure can't stand the sound of people chewing. I remember one Starburst commercial with a llama in it, I think, that was NOTHING MORE than awful, terrible smacking sounds. I lost my mind.

That's ridiculous. You're comfortable peering into another woman's vagina, but you can't ask her about how it's treated/used/abused? Please.
