Silly New Englanders complaining... Drive, what, ten minutes and you're in a new one!
A lot of those New Englanders are in Boston, where if you drive ten minutes you end up in the afterlife.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Trump wants to tear it down and put a skyscraper in its place. He probably set it himself.
That would be my guess. I could do without the nasty smoke smell that filled my office and the approximately 800 news choppers flying around my building for a good portion of the morning though.
And this is only a few weeks after the 7/11 across the street went up in enough smoke to nearly get us evacuated and sent home - damn those efficient fire fighters.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
See, I told you it was a bad idea to name our soccer team The Chicago Fire.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I really was all happy bouncy last summer when we got to the airport early and so we drove another ten minutes. And voila! one more state I had visited.

Question for those familiar with French: In Moliere's play Les Femmes Savantes, is the correct spelling "savantes" or "sauvantes"? It's spelled two different ways in the document I'm adapting.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
savantes.

Such cute wee states.
Maine may be smaller (not sure where you are Cass), but it's not small. Empty, but not small.

See, I don't know why people go nuts over Nascar, when you could film Storrow Drive or Route 128 aka (sometimes) 95 aka (sometimes) 93. You get almost as many crashes and it looks a hell of a lot more challenging than Roundy-round.
Although that said, getting onto Storrow isn't quite the competitive sport it used to be since they got rid of the 5-lane crossover over 1000 yards coming from the North that you used to have to do.

What is even happening?
Ah, the good old days, Frank.
(Cass, and Matt, I thought you were both funny. Also? Right.)

My reply was completely meant to be humorous too, cass. Sadly not much of an exaggeration, but funny nonetheless.
