Recently Jaybird was having an issue. His custard wouldn't set. Well being a helpful soul, I decided to Google and find out why he might be having any problems making his custard for a sponge cake. One of the things I discovered is that the altitude may be an issue.
Another thing I learned was about something entirely different. The Centennial State is the thinnest state of the Union. How does Colorado stay so thin when the pickings are so poor like Denny's and the like? This site seemed to show the way.
Typical recipes for making cakes at higher altitude will increase the amount of liquid, decrease the amount of leavening and also decrease sugar and fat. The amounts of egg or flour may be increased, too.
Aha! The food's just healthier due to the quirks of high altitude cooking! Let's not forget that everyone's overexerting themselves due to the reduced air pressure.
I'm really rusty and don't remember a lot. The game master (GM) hasn't done anything for six years. Jaybird and maribou have never participated in an RPG.
As it stands, the first game is on March 10th and will happen on a monthly basis.
maribou recently told me that she discovered that two patrons were having sex in one of the bathrooms. A sixteen year old girl and a twenty five year old guy. The young woman, who was busily scrubbing everything down from the noises behind the door, claimed that she wasn't doing anything of the sort. Either way, maribou had to wash everything down with carbolic acid.
Now the procreative act isn't unknown in the fashionable downtown shopping district of Colorado Springs. maribou once stumbled upon two homeless people having sex in an alleyway.
An acquaintance of mine, Kayti from LambdaMOO, once had sex in a comic book shop. Of course that business has been shut down long before my arrival in the Centennial state.
What is your favorite word?
Cooze, because it's so fucking trashy.
What is your least favorite word?
Work.
What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
Reading. I can't get enough of it. Shamefully, maribou reads more than I do. Plus she seems to read more worthwhile things than my scienty fiction.
What turns you off?
Cruelty. Needless cruelty.
What is your favorite curse word?
Cunt. Only because fuck has become so watered down and only cunt still has any teeth. GET IT?!?!?!?
What sound or noise do you love?
The sound of raddidge giggling at the top of the stairs as she lets herself into my apartment. Spot giving a happy welcoming mrrow when she hears my keys rattling at the lock.
What sound or noise do you hate?
The fucking punk students at Colorado College. Also people who go "duwhutnow?"
What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Writer.
What profession would you not like to do?
Hired killer. Drug mule. Anything involving fringe banking like my current job.
If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
I'm sorry for the inconvenience
