You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

These are all just precursors to the Pacific plate taking a massive quarter turn counterclockwise.

Gonna make that left turn at Albuquerque, is it?

The evil is this way?

Hey, you Californians, stop with the earthquakes. It's been done already.

What are you outfitting, ita, the Batmobile?

Shhh. You are giving away her secret identity.

ita, I understand that the close quarters fighting in Batman Begins can be a tad blurry if you're too close to the imax screen. Just an FYI.

Oh, and I may have been around Macs too much because I almost spelled that 'iMax'.

eta: ita, did you get to use any of those lines on the cheery co-worker?

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

She hasn't recovered from global warming yet, but I know she'll be back.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

For the Ewan lovers among us, and really, who isn't? I would pay good money to hear him sing "My Time Of Day".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And to tie a couple of things together, there was music in Batman that reminded me of a bit of Ewan singing in Moulin Rouge, but I'm not sure why.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Harkening back to the misheard lyrics conversation of a few days ago, I just went to a lyrics site looking for Bei Mit Bist du Shen (Andrews Sisters).

The lyricslisted were

F*** all the boys and I've known some.

I am pretty sure that is noy what The Andrews Sisters were Singing in 1945 or whenever

I'm not sure what that brain article ends up meaning, but I do like the conclusion:

Last year, a worried farming couple brought their youngest child to McMaster University Medical Center.

They were no longer certain whether their child was a girl or a boy

Until recently, reconstructive surgery based on a doctor's best guess was the rule in such cases. But in Hamilton, they counseled patience, Witelson recalled.

"We said, 'Let the child's behavior tell us what sex the child is.' "

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

We've got a new car thanks to JZ's dad. Also, JZ doing all the work involved with getting rid of the old car with the state buy-back program and removing the plates, and cleaning it out (I helped with that.)

Unlike the previous car, chunks of the new car are not falling onto the road.
