So the question is why are the movies given so much more time than a TV show?  And will they have Watchmen on the ballot for next year?  

I know the staff of my local store enough to chat a bit with them when I see them. One of the managers is a young man who happens to be Egyptian-American, and he was pleasantly surprised when I looked at his name-tag and figured that out. (I had an Egyptian friend in college - the last name was the same.) We always…

My late mother loved her coffee strong and black - no cream or sugar.

My husband and I went on a month-long trip to Great Britain last year - we were celebrating the completion of my husband’s PhD. We’d been hoarding credit card points for well over a decade while he worked on his Master’s and then PhD, while simultaneously working full-time with a heavy travel schedule. (And then had…

Peterson is the most right-leaning of the Blue Dogs.  He’s pretty much a “D” in name only in a pretty conservative part of Minnesota.

I believe Jonathan Pryce picked up on that pretty effectively back in 1999.

I went to the Tardis Wiki, and usually it takes at least two or three days to get more than the television blurb (which was what I was looking for).  It had already been updated to reflect the return of the Master - I stopped reading it out loud to my husband to avoid him getting spoiled.  But it was fun to watch it,…

I do not understand Mayor Pete’s appeal. Being mayor - with some pretty controversial issues - of a smallish Midwestern town does NOT qualify you for a jump to the White House. Period.

I’ve never been a fan of the Chicago dog - it always feels like too much - but after recently visiting Cleveland’s Happy Dog, it looks better to me.

Oh, no need to guess.  The caption names them left-to-right

Looks like it’s his agent.  If you click through there’s a screen shot of his bio, which mentions he got Antoni the gig.

Nate Silver retweeted this after the Tory win last week. Seems to fit here:

One of my favorite cooking videos is about croquembouche. When Julia notes Martha’s is so much prettier, she deftly replies, “Yours is the country-style!” In other words - it’s croquembouche, it’s a pain in the ass to assemble, but are you going to complain if someone makes one that’s not a glorious pyramid? It’s…

Not like NorthWestern wasn’t HQ’d here before Delta bought ‘em or anything.

As a Twin Cities resident, mostly, I just want to slap the dude.

If you are struggling for an article topic, may I suggest “What’s your dumbest cooking injury?” Because I just sprained a finger kneading one a batch of one of my stiffer Christmas cookie doughs.  Ugh.

Eh, I’m not exactly skinny and my husband thinks I’m hot, so I won’t count you out.  Or, enjoy being single because there are days I miss the hell out of it...

Actually, we just gave him the cash. He was very excited.

No - just essentially responding to your first paragraph.

Hmmm.  Well, my mailman will accept them, I know that.  But we chat a lot and I even knew his wife had a nut allergy and he appreciated I actually bagged the peanut butter cookies separately for him.
