I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine

Fun with Supreme Court rulings, courtesy of Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me:

Q: Earlier this week, the Supreme Court ruled that seizing private property to pave the way for private development also falls under the realm of eminent domain law. One entrepreneur immediately applied to the government of a New Hampshire town, asking them to seize a piece of property belonging to whom?

A: Justice David Souter
The California entrepreneur swears he's serious, but his application says he'd like to create the Lost Liberty Hotel, with the Just Desserts cafe next door. [Full story]

If I only had a brain...

SNERK. From a corporate FAQ:

Also, it's not "the" 101 unless you're in Southern California. No article is used in Northern California. Just "101". Gah.

Ok, Corey Haim needs to change that Imdb picture. I saw him on the 100 Greatest Child Stars and HE IS HUGE. He is no longer skinny.

I know! I was kind of watching it, but I wasn't really paying attention, so when I looked up, I saw him, but I didn't know who they were talking about and then, I realized and said DAMN! He's gained weight.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I loved Haim in middle school until I saw The Big Easy and fell in love with Dennis Quaid- who I still adore and wanted to snuggle in In Good Company.

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

Had we known that Victor Garber married Bennifer?

What is even happening?

Oh, man. I fell hard and fast for Dennis Quaid in The Big Easy, too. I don't think I've ever gotten completely over that one, Heather. Thanks for reminding me. :)

I did not know that. I'd seen a picture of him with Jennifer, and figured he escorted her, or something. Heh. That's sweet.

Always Anti-fascist!

Dennis Quaid=Still pretty.(And one of the only people who could call me darlin, or something, and still, like, live.) But as much as I love Fortyish! Dennis was completely unprepared for the foaminess of Breaking Away!Quaid. I believe I actually said "Damn!" Like...forget the bikes. I would have found my ride in that movie.
All of you condiment haters= mysterious. Love the condiments.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Had we known that Victor Garber married Bennifer?

Awww, that's adorable.
