No, not for the salt! God, I hate salt. I want a lemon square.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It's been an interesting year.
That's for damn sure.

Silence means security silence means approval
That overpass is right by my parents' house.
Well, fuck. Hope they still have a house when they get back.
Aha. They are so cool, they do not need a 4th call letter.
There are a surprising number of radio stations that have held onto their three-letter callsigns all these years. KGO, KOA, WLS, WKY, WSM, WSB, KVI....
TV stations were allowed to use three-letter signs so long as they were owned by a radio station with a three-letter callsign. However, when the ownership of radio and TV station split, the TV station has to get new call letters. Thus, KOA-TV in Denver became KCNC, WKY-TV in Oklahoma City became KFOR, etc.
The three-letter call signs were usually initials or short for a slogan. WLS stood for "World's Largest Store," being that they were originally owned by Sears. WSM stood for "We Shield Millions," the slogan for the insurance company that owned the station.
Anyway, I can't remember what the two W's in WWL stand for, but the L stands for Loyola, the university that ran the station initially.
Hi, DW, by the way. Do you know it took me like an hour of "DW" posts to figure out that you were not "dear wife" or some other cheeky nickname? I am slow at that sort of thing.
I sign nearly everything dw now; I started doing that on e-mails six years ago and it kinda stuck. And it makes more sense than the reversed Dylan W I use for my e-mail.
And I ain't no wife. I have so much testosterone the hair on my head never had a chance.
For the record, I have no firsthand knowledge of the noodliness or lack thereof of any of Dylan's appendages.
Can we keep it that way? Thanks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I want a lemon square.
Oh, okay. Because I didn't even want mine.
I only ate it for shrift.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ah.
Imbraguglio learned that she lost her home when the St. Bernard levee broke.
That's why that area is flooded.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I've been singing the WWL radio jingle in my head all day.
"double-double-u-ell-eight-seven! news radio!"
