Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

You have to drive to work? The theatrical life is a hard life.

(I work at home. My morning drive consists of stumbling down the corridor to the coffee pot. )

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti

And about 3' of height.

I naturally read that as 3" and went through a period of wondering how the camera could have lied to me so. It could have been some kind of perspective trick with a giant-size microphone and a ceiling that got higher as it neared the stage. Janine Giraffealo.

Our wings are not tired.

YaY! It's Friday!

YaY! Consuela's back!

Still smiling about the cuteness that was OC. Already forgot the not cute parts.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Consuela being back is indeed a good thing!

Even though I woke up at 4:30, I'm still feeling pretty good. We'll see if this feeling lasts after I get to work....

I hope so Theo. Being sick over the weekend would not be a good plan.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

From Wired:

Semenchanted Evening
An Illinois man has won the right to sue his ex-girlfriend for using his sperm to impregnate herself without his permission. Richard Phillips, a family doctor in Chicago, says he never had intercourse with Sharon Irons, also a doctor. They did, however, have oral sex three times during their brief affair; Irons apparently saved some of Phillips' semen and secretly impregnated herself with it. Phillips broke off the relationship when he discovered Irons had lied to him about being divorced. Two years later, she sued him for child support, and DNA tests showed he is the father. While the Illinois Appellate Court ruled that Phillips can sue for emotional distress, it rejected his claims of fraud and theft, agreeing with Irons' lawyers that "when plaintiff 'delivered' his sperm, it was a gift.... There was no agreement that the original deposit would be returned upon request."

What is even happening?

tommyrot, I gotta go with the woman's lawyers, myself. Did he say he wanted it back? Did he stipulate, aforehand, that it was only for certain uses?

Also? LMAO
