The Talk (story!)
I came up with this one to explain how the ponies reproduce without apparent genetalia. Also to explain pony reproduction in as safe a G-rated manner as possible, without excluding GLBT coupling
Warning: There is a sad patch.
The Talk
“Applejack, can ah aks ya a question?”
Applejack kept working as she spoke, “Ain’t nothin’ so far ‘as stopped ya.”
“Where do foals come from?”
Whoah nelly. She’d been dreading
If I could carry a sign in an OWS march...
It would read:
One people
One planet
One chance to change
For the better
Pay attention 1%!
I don’t suppose anyone would like to carry my idea in a march?

All my life [that’s 39 years and counting] I have used the word “piker” to mean “someone mean with money”. Usually in the following situation:
::self finds 5 cent coin::
“Wealth beyond the dreams of Avarice!” (beat) “Avarice was a piker.”
It’s a routine I inherited from my parents and it used to be a bit of harmless fun. Something funny to say.
I have since learned via an internet

Happy new year!
Here on the east coast of Australia, it’s been 2012 for five hours and forty-five minutes. So far, it’s all going fine.
I slept through new years’ for the first time since I was a little one and I’m wondering if it’s because I’m old.
Though I was woken up by the sound of the neighbourhood’s illegal fireworks going off, and Chaos’ screaming when it was all over.

At last! A recipe with more than just vague hints [seriously, we’re on the internet. You should know how to google stew recipes] and some actual directions.
You will need these tools:
1 large cooking container. Woks are great, but you don’t have to have them
1 means of cooking rice. Rice cookers are great, etc. etc.
1 or more handy heat source(s) like a cooktop
1 big sturdy spoon or spatula. Trust me, I mean it
How to Stretch a Stew
There are as many recipes for stew as there are people who cook it. You might like a different kind of stew, but the core is the same:
* A lot of water
* Some kind of key protein [meat is traditional, but not necessary]
* Lots of vegetables
* Thickening
One of the key ideals of stew is that it can be stretched. You might portion yours up and freeze it straight after it’s cooked, but even then, you can stretch one portion

Many of you know a few tricks, but these are some of mine. If you only have a little left to spend on food after taking care of all those bills, you need to make it stretch. And you also need to make sure you get a balanced diet. We’ve all heard the urban myth about the college kid who made a buttload of porridge etc. etc.
Anyway, over the next few days I’ll be sharing some budget-stretching

I say “Yuletide” because it roughly encapsulates all the other names for the celebrations that happen around this day.
I didn’t write this, today. Of course not. Today, I plan on being busy catering to the season, running around like a fly with its bum on fire and generally getting some kind of swag.
December 25th is the day the world - more or less - stops. Traditionally, wars enjoy ceasefires, combat slows to a crawl and general
