And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Face/Off.

DH and I rented this recently, and realized while watching it that it was pretty much the last really good movie that either Travolta, Cage, or Woo did. (And admitting at the same time that Adaptation throws off this theory for Cage.) But other than that, it's like the movie sucked up all of their collective remaining talents in one fell swoop.

I thought a kick pleat was when a skirt had one big pleat in the side or the front. Presumably to facilitate kicking.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hey, Nonian, just so you know, I've been looking up stuff for your blog question and hope to post some semblance of an answer tonight. It won't be all that informative, but it'll be something.

Mom used to refer to it also as the vent in the back , but I am no tailor.

I saw this really bad Travolta movie once. It involved stealing a stealth or something. It was painful, even dubbed in czech with subtitles. Uhg.

ita needs to buy the top dress on this page and wear it for me, vicariously. [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Broken Arrow, also Woo, with Christian Slater.

Terrible.

Betsy, I'd totally wear that.

I'm pretty sure the slit in the back hem of a jacket is called a vent. If you have two on the sides (like James Bond), you are British, or at least your jacket is.

Slater was in that? I totally blanked that. Probably from the trauma. Now if I could erase the memory of having watched Doom Generation I'd be ecstatic.

I don't know if I'm remembering the slit on the back of the coat being named something to do with motorcycles or horses, or I'm just forming it from its function.

I did shoulder therapy today. They took a little machine and connected it to electrodes on my shoulder that made the muscles twitch. It was nifty.

Trust my rage

Actually, I would suggest the Honda Odessey.

Is that their mini-van? My friends have that car and love it. I'm looking at it, but I'm not sure I can emotionally drive a mini-van yet.

This afternoon, I was sort of equally interested in either, but the more I talk to people, the more convinced I am about the Pilot. I've heard lots of good things about it.

Hey, Nonian, just so you know, I've been looking up stuff for your blog question and hope to post some semblance of an answer tonight.

Cool - I'm still curious about it. Of course, it sounds like you've been defining busy these days, so I'm glad about this part:
