And I thought the lunches we get at school were bad--

The NYT fronts a dispatch from the school lunch wars in Britain, where junk food sounds a lot junkier than in the US. Among the lunches popular with schoolkids there: a "chip butty," which the Times describes as a "French-fries-and-butter sandwich doused in vinegar."

We're just outside Raleigh,NC. A very nice part of the country, although with the extremely fast growth and development, becoming a bit too urban for my taste. We had the first frost of the season the other night, which was a bit early. Usually it's not till November, although the daily highs are back in the 70's here now. We are still plowing through the seasons of '24' on DVD. It's like cheetos..not particularly good for you but tasty and a bit addictive :)
