The Episode voting page doesn't say which TGS ep is nominated, it just links to the TGS home page. But the Pod voting page links to the Rameses ep so I guess that's what I just voted for. (IOW, "Visit Entry" arrows on the TGS badges seem reversed.) Good luck!

"My husband complains about the cold," the man said. "Can you teach me a spell to keep him warm?" "I can teach you to bind hair into a net to catch heat," the wizard said, "using arcane counting and a pair of fine wands." After a while, the man said "Isn't this knitting?" "This, too, is magic."

I tried Green Doctors in 2023. I waited forever for them to develop some sort of blush (which never happened) to indicate they were ready. They never tasted ripe. I don't know if I had the frosted variety or the lime variety. So if you need short season, avoid this variety.

If you add up the number of books in the Iliad and the Odyssey, then divide by the number of books in the Argonautica, you get the number of books in the Aeneid!
