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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But the possible hookerificness left about 1/2 an hour ago.

Have five years of Buffy taught you nothing about leg irons!?!

Hee! Computer science joke.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I hear him on NPR all the time, but this is the first time I've seen him sitting next to anybody.

He is wee. Which always made him look kinda funny next to the decidedly bearish Bill C. (Although iirc, he and Shalala were about the same size.) (Actually, Clinton surrounded himself with munchkins. Exhibit C: SnuffleupagusStephanopoulous. Definite Oz vibe there.) (Dorothy in. Although the other Oz is apropos as well.) (These parens brought to you by 1/2 bottle petite syrah.)

This might okay for the IM ignoring. You wretch. And I was bragging about the Fencing camp they have in Emmett's school district.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Good to know I'm not the only similarly-fueled on the board.

I never drink on weeknights. It's so weird...

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Yeah, amych, now that you mention it, Madeline Albright is pretty wee, the only exception was the Attorney General (who's name escapes me at the moment).

No. This is the sign for "Geek."

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Since y'all enjoyed my Sister Patricia story so much, here's another (she was my first grade teacher). One day she told us to line up for the restroom. I stood up and promptly fell down. She came over and yelled at me to get up. I couldn't and I was scared. She continued to yell and tell me I just wanted attention. I started crying. My mom was called as I couldn't ("wouldn't") get up. Well, I ended up in the hospital for several days, got a spinal tap, couldn't walk. Turned out to be a mysterious ailment that went away on its own ("Must have been a virus settled in the child's spine"). Did the nun apologize? Hell no.

Oh, you're going down, man. You'd better watch the annuli and nuclei of your vertebral disks.
