i have found blue moon ice cream again. blue moon is my favorite flavor of ice cream EVER. yes, even beating out mint chocolate chip.
i have found it at an ice cream store on clark about a block from wrigley field.
keep in mind here that i have not had this ice cream since i was about 10, at the ice cream store next to my dentist's office (i know, great business strategy, eh?)... and i remember searching northeast ohio for the flavor and was completely unable to find it. but now i move to chicago and they have it.
pure bliss, i tell you.

According to a recent round-table interview in Rolling Stone, Democratic Sen. Joseph Biden had a recent "frank exchange of views" of his own with Dick Cheney, and in the Oval Office no less. But as far as we can tell, unlike Cheney's recent outburst, Biden didn't need any four-letter words to get his point across.
Here's what the ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee says he told Bush and Cheney in a recent visit: "I was in the Oval Office the other day, and the president asked me what I would do about resignations. I said, 'Look, Mr. President, would I keep Rumsfeld? Absolutely not.' And I turned to Vice President Cheney, who was there, and I said, 'Mr. Vice President, I wouldn't keep you if it weren't constitutionally required.' I turned back to the president and said, 'Mr. President, Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld are bright guys, really patriotic, but they've been dead wrong on every major piece of advice they've given you. That's why I'd get rid of them, Mr. President -- not just Abu Ghraib.' They said nothing. Just sat like big old bullfrogs on a log and looked at me."
He hasn't given the president a pass in the past, either: "About six months ago, the president said to me, 'Well, at least I make strong decisions, I lead.' I said, 'Mr. President, look behind you. Leaders have followers. No one's following. Nobody.'"

fuck wal-mart:
The judge cited a declaration by one woman that a store manager told her: "Men are here to make a career and women aren't. Retail is for housewives who just need to earn extra money."
He cited a second woman who said that when she sought a job in the hardware department, a male manager told her: "We need you in toys. You're a girl, why do you want to be in hardware?"

in addish, i'm sweet with tools. or rather, i have the capability to be. i helped ryan put the new gas tank i his vespa last night. and by helped i mean that mostly i aimed the flashlight in the dark and held some bolts & washers. but whatever. i could've done it myself, too.
mostly, it made me wish i knew more about working on cars, etc. le sigh.

ew. milk.
i'll spare the rant about how unnatural drinking a cow's milk is, since i do love a cold glass of skim with some chocolate chip cookies, but... really. gross.
