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

And does anyone know anything about a schizm?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, I have some News You Can Use: My aunt's mother (aunt by marriage) was on the local news here last night, because Ticketmaster gave her the wrong price for tickets, and then came back wanting her to pay the rest. The story is here: [link] Fun!

From Jesse's article:

The Ticketmaster agreement allows for such errors. It states prices are subject to change.

yes, but not AFTER you make the purchase. that's not her fault. They need to suck up the $600 and reap the PR benefits.

Math and logic in the wrong hands. I'm just... I don't even know what to say about this.

The probably of God's existence is one in two. That is, God either exists or doesn't.

The probability that God became incarnate, that is embodied in human form, is also one in two.

OMG. I'm even a Christian, and this makes me LAUGH OUT LOUD.

Nice, right? They traded her for the cheaper tickets. So big of them.

Oh, and FYI, everyone -- it's 50/50 that I will, in fact, be elected Queen Of The World and Ruler Of All. I mean, either I will or I won't, right?
