It's 2009. Get an automatic ice dispenser.

I was looking into installing an icemaker in my fridge. I looked it up, the part only costs 50 bucks and I think I could install it myself, but then I realized that I'd have to run a water line to the fridge and that's something I don't think i could do myself and it would cost a hundred more.

It's actually pretty simple if the fridge is near a sink.

The oven is between the fridge and the sink. I thought of that too.

Is the oven built in? If not, you can easily run the line behind the oven. Otherwise, unless you're in an high rise or something, you just find the cold water pipe underneath the kitchen, and run the line up through the floor.

I'm in a condo, 4th floor. Oven's not built in, but I don't really want to mess with it with the gas lines and all.

My concern with the oven would more be heat damaging the water line. You could run the line up along the hood or something. They do give you 25 feet of tube.

AWKWARD

That's not something we really talk about. Thank goodness.

I recall her believing in something closer to intelligent design, in that she understands evolution and why it's demonstrably true (her major was "ecology and evolutionary biology"), but she is unwilling to believe that God is not guiding all these processes.

'sup?

EDIT: Post the status update for lololo

i'm not one for piling on. one of my buddies left a snarky comment--something about "mythology"-- and then another, the friend I have who thinks every female introduced to our group of friends wants to date him immediately, expected me to join in the conversation after he gave his unrequested two cents.

i mean, i don't know what to say because it's baffling to me that someone who grew up near Philly and lives in the metro area now thinks evolution is crap. but i'm also not a big enough jerkoff to say something snippy to my best friend's possible future wife about her personal beliefs.

Today I decided it would be great to have a British/American themed party to watch the US - England soccer match 6 months from now:

Q1: What British food could I serve that's not ridiculously heavy? Nothing like Shepherd's pie on a hot June afternoon

Q2: Given soccer's lack of popularity, how many friends/acquaintances would I have to invite to guarantee 6 people show up? 100? 200? Do that many people exist that would acknowledge knowing me?

by **Bakestar** » Thu Dec 10, 2009 11:19:05

Maybe just stick to English beers/beverages. Or stuff with limes (GETTIT LOL?).

by **jerseyhoya** » Thu Dec 10, 2009 11:25:27

We're playing England

Our food is better than their anyway

Make American food

by **EndlessSummer** » Thu Dec 10, 2009 11:30:22

The best English food is Indian food, which would be confusing. Maybe make burgers and give people the option to throw some English cheddar on 'em? The drink route is easier: Bass & Boddington's beer, gin, and Pimm's.

Are the going to have to wear long pants? If so, you might need to invite around 7,000
