Man that Mexican Coca-Cola is a crap shoot...and I don't mean that because of its water content. Sometimes it's amazing...sometimes it doesn't even taste like coke.

I saw a bottle of Mexican CocaCola at the local grocery, in a glass bottle of course, and had to buy it. I actually thought it tasted BETTER than regular coke. Had trouble getting the top off as I don't have any bottle openers at home.

Well he came back last week to stay here and work from here (but he wont be working for a month to help me with babby) then on April we are going to stay in London for a month to see if I like it there so we can move there indefinitely or just stay here. Thats IF I feel like I can go (he will be working like 20 hours a day so it would just be me and 2 kids. Bananas)
He used to fly here every couple of weeks (while i stayed with his dad, but only because the doc was here) but it can be hard cause he works a shitload

Vestiges of the old system where the church and state were the same, I suppose. Germany was of old an opponent of papal authority, which might explain such a tax on Catholics. It was for this reason that the establishment clause was added to our constitution in it's very first amendment...to prevent the establishment of state churches at the detriment of those of other faiths.

Man, even tho I was raised a protestant I so don't understand religious people. I've traveled quite a bit (both private and work related) and the only kind of religious ppl I've ever felt a kinship with are Hindus.

Still if there has to be a monotheistic afterlife, I hope I go to hell.
For if Dante is to be believed, the greatest plague that ever escaped Pandora's box (hope) is not present there. And that absence is the only thing that would make an eternal existence tolarable.

The same company sells these three refrigerated pastas can be found in the cheeses section: Wild Mushroom Agnolotti, Chicken Marsala Ravioli, and Butternut Squash Agnolotti.  I really like the mushroom one.  I haven't gotten to try the chicken one yet.  I don't know if the stores around me sell that one.  The butternut squash was a swing and a miss.  It's accented with some cookie crap and it's too sweet for me.  None of them have sauce, so it's not comparable to what the same company used to sell because the sauce really added flavor.  But the mushroom one is okay with some olive oil.  There's also this other brand I found that is striped in red and yellow.  It's a butternut squash one that's decent.  (Since it doesn't have the sweetness the other one has.)  You can find these at Super Target.
