Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, msbelle, are you giving stuff away on craigslist? I almost forwarded a post to you, and then realized it was probably from you.

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

Apparently, it's more like 36.5 million from Walmart and the Waltons: [link] Not to mention, they sent out three trucks of water early on (which FEMA refused, naturally).

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yay for the good news, Dana!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

But oh, they're going to find their associates spots with other Wal-Marts in the region. Whatever. It's more like "We'll give you a $7/hour job in west Texas, take it or leave it."

Well, not having to job hunt isn't nothing. Not extending benefits is shitty though Jeeze. It's not like they can really cover their COBRA at the moment.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Not to mention, they sent out three trucks of water early on (which FEMA refused, naturally).

FEMA. I understand (but don't excuse) how the top management can be so screwed up by political appointees, but I don't understand all the stories about FEMA officials who were in the city turning away help and supplies. Is it misguided idealism to think that career emergency management people might think and act on their own based on the conditions around them?

Oh dear, shirtless Harry Connick Jr. evacuating an elderly neighbor should NOT be making me tingly. I'm evil. Evil. But Godalmignty is he pumped.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Then there was the story of FEMA disconnecting communications cables....

I swear, FEMA must be run by Cylons.

Seriously? That's weird. Someone in your neighborhood had posted both sewing stuff and some merch from a place you used to work.
