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

Kind of hard to outlaw a naturally occurring mineral.

Well, they outlawed naturally growing plants, so it's just part of the dominion of mother earth.

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

Indeed. And yet they spend a fortune doing so with pot.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The asbestos litigation IS out of control, and this is a good step. If you don't think it is, consider that this is not something that is unanimously supported by manufacturers.

And honestly, I don't think because Halliburton took on some liability it really affects this bill in any way.

Just another lucky break for Halliburton then? They seem to get a lot of them from this administration.

Halliburton doesn't currently have any asbestos liability. They funded a settlement trust earlier this year. The bill doesn't affect them, luckily or otherwise.

My mistake, I still thought they had liability.

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

So I went to the Zam Zam last night after work, and Scarlett Johansson and her entourage came in. It was weird.

So what do famous folks and their hangers-on do in clubs? Do they dance with the hoi polloi or just lurk in the VIP section and feel fabulous?

I've been feeling the lack of that for myself lately.

Yeah, Sarameg. It's also hard to get out of that rut.

Today is a lickity split zippy day.
