And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Pizza farm

(No, not what it sounds like. But still kinda neat.)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

It looks for all the world like a slashed carotid.

I figured that was the picture behind that link.

I can't even.

I looked and looked for a description. Apparently I did a piss poor job of looking (and looking).

I didn't click, was that the Clint Malarchuk injury? Really horrible-looking and scary, but apparently not life-threatening, if I remember the reports on the scene at the time. The medical response was top-notch. Of course, if it had happened in some little arena in the backend of beyond, he would have been hosed.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

(No, not what it sounds like. But still kinda neat.)

It really is. (Though I wish it really were a true pizza farm.)

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Yes. If todger is penis slang, there is no better name.

What, not even "Yakov"?

Also.

There should be a "Jolly Todger" joke somewhere in here, though, under the circumcisions circumstances, probably not so jolly.

It reminds me of the BBC special "Spaghetti Story":

A film story about the abundant spaghetti harvest in the Swiss valley of Ticino, near Locarno, because of the mild winter and the near elminiation of the spaghetti weevil.

(Aired April 1st, 1957. Note the date...)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Dani, what part of that hockey player was injured? It looks for all the world like a slashed carotid.

Um...helloooooo they skate on BLADES! I remember that when it happened. Scary stuff. But then I seem to recall a poor hocky player getting impaled on the posts for the goals before they had break-aways. It's a contact sport. It's dangerous.

And sexy.

In other scary news...

SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian man built up a 40,000-volt charge of static electricity in his clothes as he walked, leaving a trail of scorched carpet and molten plastic and forcing firefighters to evacuate a building.

Frank Clewer, who was wearing a woolen shirt and a synthetic nylon jacket, was oblivious to the growing electrical current that was building up as his clothes rubbed together.

When he walked into a building in the country town of Warrnambool in the southern state of Victoria Thursday, the electrical charge ignited the carpet.
