We've had that stuff freeze up twice so far this winter. But at least it doesn't freeze solid & crack the resevoire.
in other news, my car needs new brakes.
;;;;;;
There was an article here a month or so ago showing many different brake pads that are made in China & other places were junk & could actually break apart & ruin your rotor's.
It was a well done piece with photo's of many different examples, some of them being quite expensive. I don't have the article any more Malachy (I used it to start a fire in my stove) But i do remember the best brake pads they tested were all - Made in the U.S.A.

I just want to point out that pudding wrestling is a waste of good pudding.

Would it still be considered a waste of good pudding...if it gets licked off after the match is over?
I am here today to volunteer for one of the pudding licker positions ;)

Or mud. Or jelly. Be creative! Since when have humans let delicious and wobbly matter get in the way of a good fight?
Oh, and by the way, I call the spot as depressed and weak-looking but utterly demonic teenager, should this scheme of ours ever turn into a game. Which I sincerely hope it will - that would be AESOEM!

Would having the creamy mixture licked off by the male winner alleviate any tensions concerning the wanton waste of good pudding?

That would depend entirely on the quality of the pudding in my opinion. Sure, custard is tasty, but I draw the line at mud, since mud is not meant to be consumed by human nor superhuman beings. Bottom line is, what people would consider to be "a good cream" and a quality flan is, I guess.
Also, one more option that sprung into my head: Creme Brulé. We could just bake this huge gellatic pastry and have this showdown on it. The best part is that it probably would stay intact even after everyone has had a sound thrashing and a winner has been declared. That means we could most definitely eat it afterwards.

yeah, snow tires are a good idea.
I started keeping a spray bottle of that stuff in my car, because the Rain-X aerosol deicer that's readily available around here starts to freeze up and sputter right around 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
lol, I've never had my wiper fluid reservoir freeze up, the sprayers will freeze up all the time if it gets cold and not shoot out any fluid, but as I said, I don't use it when it's that cold out. By then my windows are plenty clear. And at those temperatures, there's no snow falling.

By the sounds that my wife is allowing it to make, I may need at least one new rotor. She's got disc brakes on all 4 wheels I'm pretty sure. At the moment the rear right tire is the only one that's at metal/metal grinding horror, but I drive my own car so maybe she's noticed it doing it on another wheel and just hasn't told me? at nearly 50,000 miles, she's do for it anyway. Since she drives a hybrid and has some special engine braking, her brakes have lasted a good long time and are in pretty good shape.
My dad always does the same thing with a new car: First change of brakes he gets a whole new set, rotors, pads, the whole shabang, and buys the lifetime warranty. That way, whatever is run down or needs changing, he can change the whole set, for the life of the car, at no additional cost. And since he does all of it himself, I've never had to pay labor for stuff.
I change my own oil and brakes. I do all the maintanence on my motorcycle and my wife's car. My dad does brakes and things for the cars. The only thing I'm going to need to shell money out for soon will be a new rear tire for my motorcycle. They need some special machines to get the tire on there...and I don't want to fuck 1 wheel on a 2 wheel vehicle.

He wanted to swear the other night during the address. I can't quote it exactly, but he paused for a long moment after leading up to describing how he, "can't just pull ideas out...[pause]..." of somewhere, assumedly, his ass. It really, really, sounded like he was talking casually, then remembered that he's addressing the country.

And then people would make topics about it. And then someone would link to the video topic, and then the topic would get locked and the video topic would remain unloved out of spite.
Maybe you could find a part in the fight video that's apparently happening. We still need an ex military and a guy with a freaky haircut.

I've got an idea for a prank, and I need some SERIOUS INPUT.
Saturday is valentines day, and I want to send a single red rose to a random member of my workplace with a tag saying "Thanks for a great time" and leave it unsigned. Because there's going to be roses for several people at the customer service desk, so that would be the perfect day to do it on anyway.
The question is... to whom do I send this rose to?

Proteas, you gotta send em to yourself.
Anybody else and you're opening up a can you might not want opened.. plus you get the enjoyment of being the only one who knows the truth, and can play it for as little or as much as you want.
It's out of your hands otherwise.

Leave it for some random manager in a department you aren't in, or never associate with. All you need to do is figure out his/her first name and leave a rose for them.

Plus they'd never know you knew you had flowers. When you come in next week you'll get to hear a good story, with the option to inflate it even more. If you give it to someone else, you're pretty much out of the gag until it resolves.

The problem with sendign the rose to yourself is that it sends attention to you. Poeple will speculate, peopel will give you funny looks, people will ask. This brings pressure onto you to keep it up. The perfect prank is something that you can just sit and watch happen.

The perfect prank plays for two weeks before it's grand April 1st unveilment.
I'll take wagers on the prank backfiring, regardless of what Proteas chooses.

No that's not true...I was actually just in agreement with Skunky, & that idea to salvage the pudding poped into my head.
Not to mention the 'fun' factor & enjoyment involved in removing said pudding
Man I really hope they use chocolate & not lime !

Alright everyone, I'm out of here for a few days. Next time I make an appearance I will be Mrs. Ridiculous Geek.
Thankfully I'm finally starting to get over my incredibly awful cold, and won't look like death on my wedding day.
http://webcasting.cashmanpro.com/sh/ for the live webcast, 5 pm local time (PST) on Friday. Sarah Boyle - Steve Petrucelli. Yes, these are our real names, please don't get all internet detective and creepy on me. I will be sure to post links to photos after we get back.
He followed me home, can I keep him?

DON'T DO IT!
That sort of prank has the liability of sticking the reputation of being mean spirited (among other things.)
And, let's face it.
It's a very girly girl's holiday, and once you hit into girl's territory-- you walk through it in your own peril.
Trust me-- I have these particular insights.
Instead, why not give the rose to somebody who you either like... or some girl who needs it.
That's always a sagway to a beautiful relationship (... and if anything... then maybe some sex.) And you don't lose anything... except the price for a rose.
