Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

ita, our music intersection, it is small. My gym list is about 7 hours of music that varies in tempo and pleasure giving. 7 hours is about how long it would take me to marathon, or to commute for 5 days. Depending.

It does, however, have We Used to Be Friends (currently my second favorite part of Veronica Mars).

How is this pronounced? I can figure the last name (it's actually not unlike mr. flea's), but I don't think I've ever heard the first name spoken, and really, it's not intuitive to a non-Pole.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I just read a report that the SUV was left on the track by a man who intended to commit suicide, changed his mind and got out, leaving his car there.

flea, my senior sem prof, who worked with him, pronounced it as Z-Big-New. But take that with a grain of salt.

I always say it z'BIGnyew br(ih)zhinsky. With zh being sorta the same sound as in pleasure.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I just read a report that the SUV was left on the track by a man who intended to commit suicide, changed his mind and got out, leaving his car there.

And is now being charged with murder.

As he should be.

It was oddly comforting listening to an angry Chief Bratton on the news this morning. He hasn't lost a lick of his Boston accent, and I felt weirdly soothed that he was the boss for this reason alone, which is not based in any rational thought.

Yeesh. Though when I first saw the bit about a car left on the tracks, I kinda wondered if Al-Qaeda was finally trying creative small-scale terrorism. So I'm glad it wasn't that.
