Fresh spinach. I buy the extra-big bag at Walmart, and usually go through two a week.
Right, Dan. He’s “Vlad” to his Undead fans.
What does Bill want?
I use fresh spinach mostly on sandwich days. When braunschweiger is on sale, I get the dollar store’s Nature’s Own whole wheat...mounds of spinach, braunschweiger, horsey sauce, smoked muenster and a dab of brown mustard. Nums.
I do apologize for the cold injuries that occurred.
Though next time the visitors briefing could stress that “signs stating that you will be horribly injured or disfigured mean exactly that” and reinforce it with the view from monitoring cam A-7-43.
That should stave off curiosity.
Do you still have that “statue” of the ten-year-old kid with his tongue stuck to a pipe?
You actually rake leaves?
I delay the last excursion with the tractor (with mowing deck attached) until most of the leaves have carpetized the lawn. Then I utilize the magic of twin whirling sharpthings to create a profusion of pleasingly minute partitions of the once leaflike ground carpet that blend well into the general visage of the lawn instead of their previous apparition as a multi-hued ground cover. In other words, I mulch them. ;-)
Whatever falls after that date can age on the ground while seasoned by assorted amounts of often solidified glowbill warmthing until the dawning of the age of Aquarius or spring, whichever happens first. ;-)
A viable solution right up to the time that the _resident (or Son of FormerEmperorCuomo) decides to tax fallen leaves that are not removed daily.
Yikes.
Thawed out without incident, right?
“Yes.”
Anyone still asking about that?
As soon as we find a safe thawing and revivication method, what do we do with the world’s oldest ten year old?
I guess it depends on whether he's old enough for social security when he thaws out.
Captain America pajamas?
May your surgery go as well as the last one!
Newest ensign I guess.
Though we will have to keep him clear of further cold injuries.
Yeah.
Like falling over.
“Klunk”?
Worse. Consider the difficulties we had when you were cleft in twain.
Now give some thought to what would be involved with someone cleft in ten million.
Idea seed for Ensign Klunk inbound.

Stafford: “What is that? A colony ship?”
Carter: “It’s a medical library data-bank, a project.”
Stafford: “It looks like a fuel depot, or a giant beehive.”
Carter: “Kind of a beehive, I guess. They’ve got a frozen body in there, sliced into cellular layers, and still frozen. They’re tracing all the connections between cells, the position of each enzyme molecule, and the nerve connections between layers. The top half alone houses the brain.”
Stafford: “Wait a minute, that whole ship, one body? Who’s paying for this?”
Carter: “I told you. It’s a research project. Do you want that telemetry information or not?”
Stafford: “Oh, I want it! I can’t wait to get away from this place again. What do you plan to do with this body when the project is finished?”
Carter: “I’m told they plan to bring him back to life.”
Stafford stared at the huge ship, slowly turning in its remote orbit.
Stafford: “Okay. Too much information. I’m sorry I asked.”
Carter: “Kinda funny to hear you say that.”
Stafford: “Yeah, I guess. I still want to leave, though.”
Carter: “For some reason, I’m not tempted to go with you.”
Stafford: “Don’t worry about it. I’ll be all right.”
Carter looked at him for a moment, and then shrugged his shoulders. They moved on down the corridor.
Now why am I envisioning someone inappropriately singing the Faith No More song “in pieces” at exactly the wrong moment?
Just a slice of our kind of Americana.
