Ilsa, Ilsa, gimme your other hand honey, I can't hold you!

Nicolle’s Chicago Style Pizza ————————– Okay, due to popular demand I’m going to present here my secret -passed down from the Moors of Scotland- pizza recipe. This is all from scratch, and it takes a generous amount of prep time, and anything worth doing is worth doing right, so take your time. I like to [...]

ahhhh, zee Patriot Act, how you depress me

Well as uninformed as I am, I did see last night that the good ol’ Patriot Act was up for renewal (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2005/12/09/MNGPGG5BDE1.DTL) in Congress next week.

Tonight’s thesis will be a brief examination of what will be the first of many car-entries. I, like a lot of [...]

passed down from the moors of Scotland

Well, I see I’m going to need to be extra diligent about posting on weekends when I don’t have a connection and I tend to be extra busy. Saturday brought a bit of idle time in which I became inspired to do my world-famous Chicago style pizza. This pizza of legend is something I really [...]

a small rant about butch

Now that I’m doing the compulsive blogging I wondered if I might need a little boost in my material, you know something with a bit more weight, like the other day being World AIDS Days and a reminder that December is AIDS Awareness Month. Because the planet is really doomed if things keep up the [...]
