I’ll be taking a break from the daily domesticity to do a radio show with Ace. Not sure who the guests are, but that’s okay, because I’m not sure what the topics are, either. And really—unless we’re going to be discussing the cost/benefit of going for the higher end stainless or brushed aluminum appliances vs the basic designer black, I’m afraid I’m going to be rather unhelpful forwarding the discourse.
You can listen in at Rightalk. The call in number is 866-884-TALK, should any of you wish to know what I think about the Kitchen Aid Ultra Blender.
No stainless steel. Shows fingerprints like it’s the appliance’s job!
He’s home, Toto, he’s home!
Oh, Great Pumpkin, my wife works for Williams-Sonoma (or Pretentious-Kitchen-Stuff-For-People-With-More-Money-Than-Sense)
The brushed aluminum vs steel discussions never end… (argh!)
Unless you currently get a lot of use out of a mixer, I’d opt for a high-end bread machine.
Delicious warm bread with every meal?
A wife enamoured with your bread making prowess?
I think you smell what I’m stepping in.
While a fine scotch has a point, I traded in the black shiny appliances for the stainless steel. Both are fingerprint magnets, but the stainless clean more easily. Also, the stainless looks way cooler than the black shiny shit.
BTW, the time stamp on the individual entry is an hour earlier than on the main page. And a good percentage of the time, the bottom of the main page looks like HAL2000 worshipping the porcelin god instead of the obelisk.
… and it happened on this page after submitting the comment. I had to open a new window and paste the URL in to get the comment box.
It’s been impossible to comment, but I just got the full page to appear so I’m going for it. I wonder if someone’s url screwed the blog up. Or an unclosed tag. Also, the page refresh isn’t working. And Preview fails.

It was great to hear you, Jeff, even though the overall message was dismal.
I’m almost–but not quite–mystified by the ease with which the Democrats have been able to out-psych us with a stupid trick we anticipated they would pull. After all, the Repubs have a respectable record to run with. The Dems have nothing.
The only possible answer, it seems to me, is that the Dems have a better grasp on information warfare than we do. It may serve them well in the short term, but we’ll ultimately catch up with them.
It works for me. And after seven or eight tries, the whole page does finally load.
Though the 500 errors when posting are annoying, even if they haven’t meant my comment was lost. <knocks on wood> So far.
Hate to be the bearer of bad tidings but there’s a comment attributed to you here under the Ed Bradley/CBS post that I’m pretty sure isn’t yours, since you have well more than two brain cells to rub together and are involved in a legal dispute with the blogger. She’s been doing that a lot lately; guess the lengthening shadows of autumn are aggravating whatever disorder affects her. You might keep your lawyer informed. All the best.
– Post Alert – “Friend” is bedhead-deb in one of her many guise’s, back on the trail of link whoring under “old tricks by old lunitics”.
– Apparently shes juggling three balls in the air that she doesn’t have, along with the missing penis she envies. Don’t bother. No comment I could discern mentioning Jeff, just the usual inane insanities of the attention deprived, depraved, variety. Maybe after a few years of hermetic existence in that shanty in Ory-gone, she’ll headline as the Uni-Bitch-bomber. WTFC.
– We wade into the gore and puss so you won’t have to.
What time, Jeff?
Black is cheaper. And magnets for some reason don’t stick to the stainless-faced fridges. I don’t know why, they just don’t.
I lost a bet with the wife over that.
Do a black fridge, dishwasher and microwave and a stainless stove.
