So, I gave this spaghetti making thing a try. Who knew a 12oz box of hardened mini-wheatsticks would make so fucking much spaghetti?  I was short a 1/4 lb of hamburger and a 1 1/2 cups of sauce.  You'd think as big as those jars are, there'd be 6 flippin' cups of sauce in there!  Ultimately, I don't think the stringy shit got cooked enough since it didn't swell up as much as I remember Mom's spaghetti swelling.  Mixed the mess together, which looked a lot like an animal had crawled into the pot and exploded, then cooked it some more.  Yes, I drained the water first.  Wasn't as horrible as I'd feared it would be and I'm still alive 10 hours later so I can't complain too damn much.  I should make this food-making/learning thing at least a requirement every other week.  I want to know how to do fish.  Muhahahahaha, I shall kill and eat some fishes!

Started playing GTA: San Andreas on the Xbox but haven't gotten very far. It's pretty involved. So, I decided since I'm not going to have much time with it, with just two days off this week and next week, I'd just go cause mass mayhem and death around town. Can't seem to get the damn cheat codes to work so fuck it, I'll wait a month and buy it used to play it at my leisure when I stop this overtime binge I'm working currently. I won't be happy with it until I'm laying waste to the populace with flamethrowers and grenades.

For the record, the classic method of determining wether spaghetti is done is to toss a piece against the nearest wall. If it sticks, it's done.
And if you're interesting in fish, you want my Mom's uber easy recepie for salmon steaks? 10 minutes and almost no involvment on your part once its in the oven.

Yes, no involvement is good for a first time whack at this. Lay it on me, what's it take to do this fish baking thing?

GTA update: I have figured out the cheat code problem and now caused mass mayhem and death around town. Seeing an animated, three dimensional stack of polygons get their head blown clean off is strangely disturbing and fun all at once. They also bleed a lot and if you run through the puddle, you track bloody footprints for a while.
