Was going through my mp3 jukebox and listened to this song I hadn't thought of in a long time. Always loved the melody and the lyrics which surely came from a heartbreak of the songwriter.
I read a little about it while searching for the video; I was surprised to see it wasn't as big a hit in the UK as it was in the US.

Mystery Ingredient
One of my favorite recipe sites is Recipe Lion. It offers a newsletter, a recipe box to save your favorites in, specialty and holiday recipe collections in downloadable pdf format and many other features.
In today's newsletter, one recipe caught my eye: (because I'm a poor man) Poor Man's Steak. I clicked on the link in the email and went to the site, hoping that it would be a recipe worthy of saving. It seemed easy enough and sounded like it would be a tasty and inexpensive dish to prepare. I saved the recipe, then had a closer look at the ingredients. Here's what I saw:
One of what? A can of some other soup? A diced onion? The finger you lopped off slicing up the loaf? A mystery ingredient, indeed.
I worry about "mystery ingredients" when I get fast food at places where it looks like just teenagers are working

Holidays for the Lonely
Laura Kightlinger: Holidays for the Lonely:
It goes: Christmas, New Year's Eve and Valentine's Day. Is that fair to anyone who's alone? Those are all days when you gotta be with someone. And if you didn't get around to killing yourself at Christmas or New Year's -- boom! there's Valentine's Day for you. I think there should be just one more holiday after Valentine's Day, just for the stragglers -- and it should be called, Who Could Love You?

auscultation
From the Word of the Day:
auscultation - aus·cul·ta·tion [aw-skuhl-tey-shuhn];noun
Medicine/Medical .
1. the act of listening, either directly or through a stethoscope or other instrument, to sounds within the body as a method of diagnosis.
I'm sure this would be a great technique for diagnosing heart or lung problems, perhaps even something to do with the circulatory system, but since I'm no medical expert, I can't think of any other problems that could be figured out by sound. When my bones creak and pop, I know that's just a sign of old age.
I guess having a chronic gas problem could be diagnosed by sound, but I figure smelling it would be the first clue.
