I find it so cute that some TV networks think they can somehow defeat the internet's desire to (1) see a show, (2) circumvent restrictions on videos, or (3) both.
Now if we can just convince the BBC that these less-than-12-show seasons are a bad idea...
I've had the "stings as much going out as coming in" experience a few times - usually when "grandpa" was cooking at the family-owned Thai restaurant we used to frequent. It can be handy, if you want to know how long it takes things to make it through your system (although I suppose corn would do that too, with less ouch). Also - Dirk Gently? Woo!
There's a Thai restaurant we love near us that won't serve you the REALLY spicy stuff until they know you. I guess they've had too many dishes sent back with complaints even after the customer ordered something "really hot."
My pal, "Nelson" is pretty much an adjective in their kitchen, I think. There's a soup that's various shades of red when ordered via the menu's normal 1-5 star system for spiciness. His comes out to the table pretty much black.
I...kinda feel sorry for the schlubs who have to audit the results of that DHS screening list, in a way--video game discussions *alone* would trigger far too many of them (especially since one of their keywords also happens to be the name of a major MMO company...) ...though it does amuse me a bit that a discussion of lunch at the place with $5 foot-longs will also possibly get tagged by that list. ;-)
I'm wondering how their net activity gets monitored? Because, yeah, if those were the search terms I had to keep an eye on, I think I could do that all day long. :)

7 million Scovilles? May as well be eleventy bajillion, for all the taste there is left after a few bites. (my lower alimentary canal is equally reluctant to imagine either passing through it, as well)
That was an obstacle. I will say whatever peppers were in the center of the burger (either very strong habaneros or perhaps "white devils") had a very distinct flavor I usually refer to as "green." It was kind of a bitter vegetable taste that somehow shoved its way through the taste of AAAAAAGGGGGH!
I was hoping some kind of endorphin rush was going to kick in at some point, but alas, I think it was dragged away and pummeled into submission.
I'll track down the e-mails (I'm getting g-mail to behave properly), and I think we re-sent your order last week. I'll be going to the post office again tomorrow, and I'll ask how long they expect mail to Singapore to be in transit.
