Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
But I was using a melon baller, not a knife, so it's not violence.

What color is the sky in your world, Allyson?

Gore Vidal made quite a case in his novel Burr for Jefferson as villain. Historically, in spite of saying some noble things against the institution, Jefferson did a hell of a lot to increase the power of slavery in this country. Vidal always does good historical research for his novels - which is not the same thing as saying he is always right, or for that matter that he won't ignore the facts in favor of what makes a better story. (If he wasn't willing to do that they would be biographies, not novels.)

Will no one defend from Allyson's interwebtastic violence?

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Well, none of US have The Inside DVDs, either.

Don't worry. I don't think she really has a melon baller.
ETA: Though, if she did, you ripped her face off first. I think a case could be made for self-defense by melon baller.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
The beagles won't defend you? Maybe they're cranky about the crates.

Oh and, Perkins, no worries on the t-shirt. I mean, it would be cool but don't make yourself crazy over it.
