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

My favorite Overheards In New York are the PA announcements, especially on the subway. [link]

Pilot: Okay, so they've delayed us for about an hour, people. But it's not my fault. I don't want to be here either. But listen guys...I've got this trick. They tell me to stay put but I don't care. We'll inch up right by the runway because sometimes there's a little window of time where we can go. Yeah I've got it all worked out...be glad I'm sneaky.

Cracks my shit up!

I rather like

Conductor: To the young lady who was screaming on the platform: It's not the four-legged creatures you need to worry about. The creatures you gotta watch out for are the two-legged ones. Thank you and have a nice day.

...and it is less likely to make me envision dying in a traffic accident on a plane!

Now tagless for your comfort.

It looks like the FDA is reconsidering the appointment of a male veternarian as head of the Women's Health Office

Even though they back peddled on this, my rage knows no bounds. WTF? Have they learned NOTHING about agency appointments????

No they have not.

The Bush administration is seeking to appoint a lawyer with little immigration or customs experience to head the troubled law enforcement agency that handles those issues, prompting sharp criticism from some employee groups, immigration advocates and homeland security experts.

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

Also, they've announced that OSHA will be headed by an incontinent monkey, as their plans to nominate a garden slug proved too controversial.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Huh. I thought his incontinence was still a secret.

Nah - I'd call what he did pissing on NOLA.

Ann, that's a ferret.

No, he's the one who was too controversial.
