Mission fat-free whole wheat tortilla: 5g protein, 130 kcal :: index .0385 Flatout "light" sun-dried tomato flatbread: 9g protein, 90 kcal :: index .1000, better than a turkey dog on a single slice of pubilx blended-grain bread; almost but not quite as good as a double-meat Chipotle salad with chicken, beans, red tomatillo salsa, guacamole and no dressing.

Stupid Flaming Lips. I've had that damned Waitin For a Superman song stuck in my head all weekend. I think I was better off with Patsy Cline. I'd be better off yet with something, y'know, not-depressing. Like this: Ran dark laundry, picked up a lot of the little scraps of trash around the yard.

As of Thunderbird v17, Mozilla has taken a page from the Google Chrome playbook by hiding the program's title bar.
