A Spoonful of Spenda(r)
FOUND by Matthew in Silverlake, Los Angeles, California
Found on the street near a "special" guest house.

Was it found by a guest house with little flower pots for the empty straw wrappers?

Or maybe somebody's been mashing up roofies and sticking them in pink coolade again and freezing it! Nothing says a good time like a roofie party! Haha!

I love the little ® after Spenda.

is the medicine LSD? I guess that wouldn't otherwise be injected, though would it?

Hmm. What medicine's good for the heart chakra and radiations of pure love? (extasy?)

Thumbing their corporates noses at the New York Times crossword puzzle folks, the recently-incorporated Gridless Crosswords Co. published its puzzles on blank graph paper, forcing solvers to come up with their own grids. The hardest versions, like this one, includes crypto-quotes from Deepak Chopra.

Seems to me that Spenda (R) kind of contradicts the whole get back to nature message of alternate therapies involving love and chakras.

Well at least it explains the empty Splenda packets in the bathroom over the last several months and weeks...

so, is the medicine in a cube of suger or a cube of sugar? cause if it's a cube of suger, that could be hard to swallow with all the gargoyles and whatnot.

Isn't that supposed to be "Splenda"? My wife's nickname is "Spenda".

Haha! I thought it DID say Splenda. How did you find the R-in-a-circle on your keyboard, chim chim cheree? I can never find those symbols when I need them!

Berney, MY nickname is SPENDA! Says my hubs.

ALT-0174 is the R symbol: ®

Here's a list of the rest:

Clover, you can make them in Word by just typing (R)* and hitting enter, or you can go to character map (start>programs>accessories>system tools> character map on my computer)
to get symbols and explore your fonts. (can't wait to make one based on my own handwriting!!)

(that's an R inside parentheses.)

fooch, up too late in the morning to beat HPD to the comment
ah, well....those journalism students now have some answers....
+ October 01, 2009 12:21 PM +
duhhh me
(with no asterisk. I was supposed to put an asterisk at the note on the bottom and forgot. So disregard the asterisk altogether.)

For those of you whose husbands say your nickname is Spenda.. is there last name? like maybe lottamoney? lottatime?

Hey, that's easier, isn't it? hold down the alt key and type the number code.
(learn something new every day)

I couldn't follow the link provided for other alt codes, though, so here's what google gave me.

If you have a Mac, hold down the "option" key and press "r" (do not press shift or caps lock), and it will produce ®.

not an albertan in alberta

no one has mentioned that it is impossible to shoot ice cubes...even melted that would be a lot of liquid for the average syringe....alternative medicine? alternative addiction? hope she had a good sugar rush

excuse the last comment, she's using the syringe to shoot into the cube of sugar--who knew slenda came in cubes?

I love how the layout breaks down toward the end (putting "Mary" on the wrong line then crossing it out. Must have misplaced the whiteout). This person needs to work a bit on his OCD, looks like.

Yeah, Andy in RI- and if only the writer had gone with Mary on that line- even though it screws up the double spacing- there would not have been that last ten letters OFF THE GRID!

(which is a bigger affront to me and my OCD than the inconsistent spacing would have been.)

So how can s/he spell sugar correctly at the end if not at the beginning?
+ October 02, 2009 10:42 AM +
boxed in .
@ bored: maybe the writer helped him/herself to the medicine by the time s/he was writing the end. I'd need a little sump'n if I had to put every flippin letter in it's own little box. Where's my splenda cube? Just reading that thing gave me anxiety/claustrophobia. Maybe some chakra would help. . .
