Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

THE OTHER WAY!!!!!!!!!!

Hee. I'm laughmaster tonight at Toastmasters. That was one of the jokes I was thinking about giving. (I'm going with the more genteel option.)

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

Oh yeah, I never told you guys about my widow....

I think this would have to follow by definition.

Oh, it does, I love that one. But I fear it may stop the pacemakers of some of the more elderly members. (I tell a lie. I'm simply saving it up for when I bring a guest along.)

So how are you guys?

Crap. The NASA and Space.com sites seem even more loaded than when the rovers landed on Mars.

I didn't feel like going out amongst the crowds of people and drinking and watching fireworks.

Subsequently, life is boring.

I've found spray bleach and bathroom cleansers to be quite effective against large bugs. Seems that breathing through the skin thing isn't so advantageous when you're covered in something sticky that burns and dissolves the walls of your body's cells.

I may have bug issues.

I went to the super market to get stuff for our family picnic tomorrow and as I was leaving discovered that the Shoprite parking lot was a fireworks watching hotspot -- complete with picnics. I loaded my stuff into the car, had a killer view of the finale, and drove home.
