It's been a while, but I remember doing OK scoring the top with a sharp knife.

I just stab with a fork to perforate the crust. Seems to work.

Reading the directions for microwaving a beef pot pie:
"Slit top crust before baking"


... X-squeeze me? It's frozen solid and I don't have the handy-dandy Popiel Pocket Chainsaw!

Dates in the fridge could be fun... you'd be able to just chill....

What? You don't want a hot date?

Anyone else keep fruit in the fridge? Apparently this is weird, according to offline friends, but I like apples and oranges cold!

I keep mandarins, grapes, pineapple, strawberries, and others in the fridge. I don't keep bananas, apples and dates in the fridge.

Another food question: what is the proper way to eat halva? I see it at the supermarket and it just looks like a block of cheese. Are you supposed to spread it on things like crackers, or just cut it into slices or cubes?

Yep, just cut slices off and eat.

Agreed, I keep apples and oranges in the fridge.

What's the difference between novels and novellas?

In a word, length. Here is a discussion.

I was putting clothes in the dryer when I suddenly realized I knew the ending to my splatterpunk romance vampire novella and I guess I better get on that soon.

I used to think the first line in the closing song lyrics was "Jukebox bartender, tonight!"

They may as well be. Apparently the lyrics are just jibberish anyway.

From Wikipedia:

The closing theme was a different song with more of a hard rock sound performed by Atlanta musician Jim Ellis, played over scenes from the episodes followed by a still photo of the Cincinnati skyline.[28][29] Ellis recorded the song as a demonstration for Wilson, and as he had not yet written lyrics for it, Ellis mumbled nonsense words. Wilson chose to use the demo version because he found the gibberish lyrics funny and a satire on the unintelligible lyrics of many rock songs. Wilson also knew that the lyrics would not be heard clearly in any event, as a CBS announcer always talked over the closing credits of the network's shows.[30]
