I suppose I don't dislike Cushca, it's the anger I don't care for. Hey, I've been drinking arm Irish Mist for quite sometime now. That's my excuse, I'm sticking to it.

Mrs Dr GB:
Strikey. Life's a bit tired at the morning. It's 9.00 am. I've been at work for half an hour. And no coffee yet. It's inhumane. I'm drafting a letter to the Court of Human Rights, I'm sure they could sort something out.

isn't that guinnea pig a hoot? I can see him making an "oooh" sound.

Heruka:
I witnessed it. You could come and work for me, can't pay you, you'd be planting tulips all day...

Mrs Dr GB:
I'm afraid not. I don't like gardening: it's just housework outdoors.
(Wed Oct 10, 2001 - 4:06:01 am)

Heruka:
oh no. Gardening is architecture for the outdoors. I've long held a theory that our surroundings forms our mental state. All we see here is stright horizontal or vertical linws. Amweeicans ae followers. Fortunately, they're followers of great men. Our gardens represent the world around us, in miniture. I think I'm nuts.

Heruka:
Y'know, the lounge and WB page before us has been a home for us. If it weren't for these we'd have no home on the net. This is my home. Everything I do is from here. Strange but true.

Science Fiction: A struggling artist teams up with a kind hearted prostitute to win a wager. In the process they deflower Parker Posey. By the end of the movie they buy 23 planes and end up winning the admiration of their universe, living happily ever after. Think Die Hard meets Apocalypse Now.

"The Watermark restaurant here in Cleveland is my favorite place to take out-of-town guestsÑand I find other excuses to go, too," writes Bob Charleton of Cleveland, Ohio. " Last time I went there, I had lunch in the Garden Room, a glassed-in space overlooking the Cuyahoga River. The highlight of the meal was an unusual pumpkin soup topped with cheddar cheese."

Surprisingly easy to make, this soup is flavored with cumin and chili powder.

3 cups chicken stock or cannedlow-salt chicken broth
1 cup whipping cream

1 15-ounce can pure pumpkin 3 tablespoons (packed) dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 cup (packed) grated sharp cheddar cheese
Chopped fresh cilantro

Bring chicken stock and whipping cream to boil in heavy medium pot. Whisk in canned pumpkin, brown sugar, cumin, chili powder, coriander and nutmeg. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until soup thickens slightly and flavors blend, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Soup can be prepared up to 1 day ahead. Cool. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium-low heat, whisking occasionally.) Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish each serving with cheddar cheese and cilantro and serve.
