KATE!!!!!
Super smoochies winging eastward.
Ooo! Shiny!
Innit?
The Astronomy Picture of the Day and BRQG are my double home pages in Netscape. Love those tabs.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I was going to say -- no Boston columnist ever wrote a (bathetic, untruthful) history of the tragic Patriots. Because they aren't terribly tragic. Their winning has been good-but-not-shocking guys doing good-but-not-shocking wins in orderly fashion. (To get any dramatic reaction out of Bill Belichick, you would probably have to apply electrodes to his nuts.) I think that 4th-quarter loss to the Nobodys 2-3 weeks back got more coverage than their wins, because of the shockingness.
Also, baseball is in Boston, where it's convenient for TV cameras and half-assed columnists; baseball has a lot more games over a lot longer season; and baseball happens when it is not cold enough to die while tailgating before the game.
Although I do enjoy watching games played during and just after snow. The one where the frostbitten fans threw snow-fireworks after every touchdown in the playoffs last year was hilarious. I don't remember a thing from the game itself, just my amazement at the persistence of the fans.

OK, can someone please tell me what the movie reference in Shrek 2 is when the giant gingerbread man starts referring to himself in 3rd person as Mongo? Please!?!! It's been making me insane.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Haven't seen it, but I'm guessing Blazing Saddles?

Huh. And yet it was familiar to me despite never having seen that movie. Weird.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
brenda has correctly answered sarameg's question.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Blazing Saddles, sarameg.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
The person in charge of stocking the soda for our department sent us diet Dr. Pepper instead of diet Coke, and then to make up for the mistake sent caffeine free diet Coke.
Oh, the humanity.

The evil is this way?
caffeine free diet Coke
Free of calories, free of caffeine, free of taste, free of any point whatsoever.

free of any point whatsoever.
It'll still make you burp!
Fleeing homeward.
