Tell him they speak Jawaiian.
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I told him they speak English, but that didn't matter since he'd not understand it anyway.
How can you not want one of these?

A co-worker just asked me if they speak English in Jamaica. I forgive him because he's a nice guy and is taking all my vacation advice.
When my (Canadian) mom was signing up for classes at a local college some years ago, the clerk complimented her on her english.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
So far this morning, which is only half an hour old for me, I've discovered that the NY library made one small mistake, which was followed by another small but understandable mistake by our mail room, which together forced me to send out an all office email that made me look like a BIG GIANT GOOBER.
I wanna go home too.

See? There's that pesky "reliability" problem taken care of right there.

This way you keep them on their toes, Perkins. They'll never know quite what to expect from you.
If I leave in an hour or so, I can be home by the time of my first conference call of the afternoon.
And horizontal. Want to be horizontal.

The bling-bling binky is...interesting. And ita, step away from the creepy little-girl-glamour sites.

My brother has a theory that you are either a Keillor person or a Glass person, and that it is not possible to like both.
What if you love Keillor's voice, to the point where you often express the wish to have him read you a bedtime story and are willing to listen to even the most tedious Lake Wobegon story just for the moment when he gets all hoarse and meaningful ... but think This American Life is worlds more brilliant in terms of writing and content?
My One True NPR host would probably be Glass, with Keillor's voice. Discuss.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
(I just thought I was nimble enough not to get shocked! I was wrong.)
I'm going to have to list "Unfounded Confidence In Ability To Move Faster Than Electricity" next to "Thinks She Can Beat Up A Cheetah" in the evergrowing list of Nutty's Charming Quirks.

Reminds me of Elizabeth Taylor saying the very best part about being married to Richard Burton was that he read stories to her in bed.

Never work. Ira's voice is better suited to his content.
