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.
Global Market is basically Target trying to horn in on Cost Plus and Pier 1.
TRHANK YOU! That's what it looked like from the commercials. And those stores have that stuff all the time!
Colin looks skeezy and/or skanky. Do NOT want that anywhere near my lady parts.
It's 34 degrees here. SO ANNOYING. It just makes for slush and puddles and mud and gross. Yuck.
I have a mouse. I don't know the exact definition of "mouse" in this context, since I'd have called it a slight black eye. Living and learning.
I had a mouse once! It was a puffy area under my eye, not an all-around black eye. But I got mine babysitting.
Bush sounds so annoyed in his press conference.
THANK YOU! That's what it looked like from the commercials. And those stores have that stuff all the time!
Which ties into my horror at being in the downtown store when the Bazaar was first revealed. I was shopping all unawares when a horde of Marketing Managers from HQ descended on the section next to me, and I heard exclamations of "It's so cuuuuuuuute!" and "Everything's so unique!" I turned the corner to see what was causing such a commotion, and was confronted with stacks of chairs that are directly copied from chairs Pier 1 has carried for decades, piles of cheaply-embroidered pillows, and the sight of overly-tanned, Midwestern-fashionable managers cooing over plaster Buddhas.
I had to flee.
Which is not to say there's not good stuff there. Just that being in the middle of a stampede of Minnesota shoppers is never a good place to be, especially for a misanthrope that used to manage a Pier 1.
Oh, what's he got to be annoyed about?
Or is he just annoyed to be giving a press conference?
Oh, what's he got to be annoyed about?
Reality.
Oh, what's he got to be annoyed about?
Well, now that Condi's going to be Secretary of State, her offices won't be nearly as conveniently located....
Reality.
Yeah, that annoys me too. However, at least my perception of it doesn't influence millions of people and dozens of countries.
Shrub, how he hates the press conference. All those people! Asking questions! He so rarely does them.
People asking questions, and then expecting him to answer them! And not all of them can be answered with excerpts from his stump speech.
MEEP! There was a train derailment (commuter train) over by Allyson's neighborhood. That plus the rain must mean the traffic is all screwy.
ita, looking for the bench for you.
