Actually, that's probably really true. Very good point.

Noting only that "Wally" means "fine" or "splendid" according to various name dictionaries.

(No, I didn't just look it up)

I'm being very productive this morning. So far I've made coffee, walked the dog, done two dishracks of dishes, cleaned out the fridge, cleaned the balcony furniture, and written thank you notes. I hope this energy keeps up. I've got major party shopping to do this afternoon. Plus work.

"If you were travelling in a car at the speed of light, and you turned the headlights on, would they do anything?"

"F, C, M: Chartreuse, the collected works of Samuel Beckett, nanobots."

"Why don't the Chinese ever use this finger? ...'Cause it's mine!"

"If we can send a man to the moon, then why - why - did Claudia Schiffer shag David Copperfield?"

"Is it the aim, or the courteous wipe-around?"

"If you found yourself confronting the members of the Backstreet Boys, and you only had one bullet, which one...?"

"If it made the difference between you getting this apartment and not, would you be willing to wrestle a badger best out of three for our personal amusement? ...How about if it made no difference at all?"

"German honeybees have hairy eyeballs." Why German? And can we blame techno?

"What Would Jenna Drink?"

"Can you hear the drums, Fernando?"

Hey, it worked for me. It left me with a shortlist of my brother, and I heartily recommend this outcome.

Bwahahahahahaha!

I'm thinking that's not going to work well with the group I'm interviewing, but it gave me a good laugh. I wish we had one of our brothers in the area to room with. That would be fun. Unfortunately, not workable. And darn that Lilty for making us have to go through this process :)

Did we know that the much-beloved Photo Finish now comes in color-correcting formulations?

As someone who is way too pink all the damn time, I'm intrigued.

As someone else whose pink is not so secret, I am also intrigued.
