Mmm good - Love that free market! This 'expert' draws many tenuous conclusions from half-baked, poorly supported suppositions surrounded by a hefty helping of bigger-is-always-better rhetoric and corporate libertarianism. Truly an article designed to preach to the choir.

The press lifted him up before Iowa, afterwords, he was dropped quicker than a 50 pound bag of baked potatoes. CNN didn't give him half the airtime as the two "front runners." How many states does he have to win to stay in the race?

In a bowl mix your cream, lemon juice, garlic half the thyme and most of the Parmesan, and season well to taste. Throw in the sliced Jerusalem artichokes. Mix well and place everything in an ovenproof baking dish....

Is it me, or were the Super Bowl ads just a whiter shade of pale this year? It seemed that every ad was buried in nostalgia, or worse, half-baked.

There is a valid argument out there that says, in a nutshell, let Hillary win because that sends a message to the Republican Blue Bloods in Washington that we will not accept these half-baked liberals masquerading at conservatives anymore. We will wait for a genuine conservative to be forged out of our refusal to vote for RINOs.

The Half-Baked Serenade is the second album by Self. Released only though a mail-order catalog, it's become very rare. Due to its rarity, the album is less popular amongst Self fans than Subliminal Plastic Motives, but critical reception remained positive. The song KidDies became a minor hit, in part due to its amusing lyrics which poke fun at Marilyn Manson. With its Halloween theme, it still receives some scattered radio play, particularly during October. The songs Dielya Downtown and Microchip Girl also became favorites of Self fans with the former becoming a live staple of the band. The album was a departure from the previous album in that most of the songs do not feature guitars, yet it was still firmly rooted in a pop-rock style.
