A finial is a type of architectural ornament, and "cedarn" indicates it's made of cedar. What this has to do with high cholesterol is not yet clear to me.

Unfortunately, the epilogue to the novel has the main beau realizing that he can no longer love a woman who has inferior knowledge of pitons, and abandons her memory for a local chess pro with an amputated leg. The body is never recovered.

But in the sequel we learn that his bittersweet romance with the chess pro is in fact his long-lost love after she lost her leg, regained her hearing, lost her memory and had to have facial reconstructive surgery after the fall! But can she ever love him again?

Little is said, but once her dark secret is revealed, the alarmed protagonist attempts to escape. With the help of her athletic brother, the ever more bitter heroine catches her once lover and has him locked in the basement. His next sight of her is a silohuette in the light of the doorway at the top of the stairs, crutch in one hand and whip in the other.
With the relationship having taken a sinister turn, we can only wonder... where will it go from here?

The random obscure words on there are for when people use bizarre terms like you've used and they're the only hit.

Laurie needs to gets some role where his character's schtick is that he sits in a very comfortable chair and eats gourmet pudding. Now that would be an act.

Absolutely agree. Chris is a terrific writer and clearly loves the English language, so he'll certainly understand when I say, "IT BURNS! IT BURNS MY EYES!"
Padres pitcher Chris Young was quoted in the paper today, complimenting another pitcher by saying, "His arm was literally electric." I know there's a lot of emphasis being placed on steroids, but I think bionic limbs should also be illegal. Yeah, he's a baseball player but he also went to Princeton, so he should be setting good grammatical examples for all the kids out there.

For some reason i can only read that as a triumphant exclamation.
Ha! That'll teach you to have a beautiful relationship with a deaf rock climber!

I put it to you that Cornelius says "Oh bother" just like Winnie the Pooh who is also a bear. There is a fun parallel to be drawn.

I've always thought that Achewood has a parallel to the Hundred Acre Wood. Beef is Eeyore, totally. Ray would probably be Tigger, Philippe would be Piglet, I guess, and Pat would be Rabbit. I actually saw an episode with Rabbit in it not too long ago, and the only thing I could think is "Man, Rabbit is a DICK."

Clearly Pooh would have to be whichever character you could write a book about called "The Tao of XXX." So far "The Tao of Ray" is the one that makes the most sense to me. Although it's admittedly not perfect, I can imagine a sentence along the lines of, "While Roast Beef frets, and Pat chastises, and Lyle pukes, Ray simply is .

Oh, damn. To follow this to its natural conclusion, wouldn't that make Teodor Pooh? Like astro_zombie, I can't unthink this thought.

Cornelius should totally replace Winnie the Pooh. Pooh has been going downhill ever since he started turning tricks for Disney. I heard that he's now virtually a shut-in, eating up to forty jars of honey a day, has to be propped up by Piglet when he goes on stage, stands there sweating and swaying for about ten minutes before being booed off. Cornelius can beat that.

While they both probably say "Oh bother," Cornelius would say it because of a genuine annoyance. Winnie the Pooh says it because he is too simple-minded to comprehend what is going on.

Really. It's entirely possible to be a successful vegetarian without eating anything you need to go to the asshole store to buy. I know people who even manage it as vegans.
Though I guess if you're looking to get in on the "sanctimonious prick" level, then I guess it's pretty much a must.

Hm, that breakfast is not actually proscribed, it is prescribed; the proscribed one is unfortunately Cornelius's preferred oysters and veal. It's a one-letter difference, but Cornelius really ought to know which is which.

I'm glad that someone else feels the same as me about veggie bacon, it is seriously WRONG!
If ever I feel a craving for (real) bacon, all I have to do is think about that stuff and I'm over it for months!
