Today is my birthday, my immediate family didn't remember and my wife/child who did remember are out of state for two weeks so I figured I'd just be spending this B-day alone at the house, chillin after work. I was pretty bummed to say the least, but my boss scheduled his lunch time to coincide with mine and took me out to eat (he remembered my b-day, neat!). He ended the meal by giving me a card that let's me train in his martial arts studio any time I want, learning Kuk Sool. Very cool of a boss.

I normally have to be reminded by my best friend at least a couple times to remember an upcoming holiday. I usually feel bad, but in this instance, I do not. You did not tell me it was your birthday!!

[size=100pt]HAPPY BIRFDAY M'FRIEND!!![/size][/i]

Don't you hate having a secret that is great news and you want to tell people but you can't?

News Corp was denied the right to takeover BSkyB

FUCK YOU MURDOCH!!!

*Ahem*

But seriously, this makes me extremely happy.

Well, they withdrew their bid because of pressure - but, still FUCK YOU MURDOCH!!!!!

It's not over yet though, we need to totally discredit them and chase them out of UK media altogether. Petition for enquiries into how much tax The Sun pays - friend of mine has been looking into this for years and it seems at the moment as if it 0.

Murdoch's back-up plan is to sell off all his UK newspapers - they're a relatively small part of his empire. Let's help him, and the companies that advertise in his papers along with that decision.

That carrot cake was absolutely stunning

Here's the recipe, I highly recommend you people give it a go.

E: I tried making the topping with both Philadelphia and the frosting thing, and I'm pretty certain the recipe means the Philadelphia stuff.

Okay, yeah, you're making frosting. Don't use frosting to make frosting; use frosting instead of making frosting.

For the carrot cake topping:
200g (7oz) cream cheese
Few drops vanilla extract
3-4 level tbsp icing sugar
Orange and green food colouring

@ Boog:

I read the page of whatever book that is, and had a half-disturbed laugh by the end of the paragraph. The scary part is "This has been going on for years." Hahaha

Edited for typo

Anthropology: And a Hundred Other Stories by Dan Rhodes. Right?

Gunnerblaster · « **Reply #990 on:** July 14, 2011, 11:09:10 AM »

What's the name of that book, Boog? Is it a short-story/poetry book?

I read the page and I enjoyed it! Lol.

I have no idea what that book is! You could google the passage and it would probably give you the name of it. I just lawled and it was on my tumblr dash this morning.

Sorry if this post is full of errors. My phone keyboard sucks!
