Do you have (or can you get) a picture of the Happy Couple? Put that in a nice frame, and bob's your uncle.
I came into work today to find that my boss took the day off. I could do some filing, but I just have no interest.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Really? It was blacked out on ESPN2 here, but we got the NESN broadcast. Unless Cox stuck the local channel into NESN's slot for the night
You're technically out of the local market, so you get NESN. They did mention their own blackout for the direct Boston area. (I have a friend who travels for a living, and in the afternoon she was suddenly like, is Burlington, NH part of the Boston market? Will my hotel have good enough cable to have NESN or ESPN2 or both? Aieee!)
Yes, yes, fewer than 80 miles, and not "local". Welcome to New England.

I like the comic book idea too, especially since he's the one who more or less got me interested in them in the first place. I don't have a picture of them, unfortunately. I have pictures of him, but, um, mostly with me. Not such a good wedding gift. I actually haven't met her yet.

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

Does she like comics? You probably don't want to be the ex that gives a gift just to the groom.

I'm not as intolerant of Pope coverage, as love him or hate him the guy was fairly relevant to about 80 million Americans and a billion people worldwide. For once, there's a good reason for the news overkill.
A nice set of hand towels and matching bathroom accessories (soap dispenser, toothbrush holder, etc.) can be a good gift that doesn't break the bank. Also, Anchorware®.

Right, that's a good point. I think the pretty/funky home decorating gifts are the way to go.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I don't have the link, but Cookie Monster is going health food. The PTBs have decided that he needs to eat more veggies to be a good role model.
Umm. Yeah. Do they get that we always knew he was an obviously, glaringly bad nutritional role model? Or are today's kids dumber about that sort of thing? I can't believe it's the latter.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Warning: Much scarier than usual Michael Douglas picture.
