You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

More people should be laughing at me. My siblings agree.

Just so long as your GF doesn't.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Just so long as your GF doesn't.

She's allowed to laugh too. Just not to point and laugh.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yeah Plei, I think it's really wrong of you to make motherhood look hot.

It's a pyramid scheme. I think after five friends sign on to get knocked up, I get an iPod or something.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

LAistas met my nephew last night. Which is as close to sprogging as I will get. They can tell you of his cuteness. I can tell you of my being so glad that as much as I love him, he's returnable.

I'll just buy my own Nano.

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

The Cass Nephew is very cute as are Lillibean and Annabel.

I made it home. I'm very glad I ated too much cake earlier, because the pieces I brought home with me didn't do very well.

I want too much cake to eated tonight. I had scary clown cookie instead.

Nephlet is wonderful. Hugalicious. And he was mesmerized by all of the Buffista foaminess but in a nine-year-old way. So it was the fun colored hair and the paying attention to him that made an impression on him. Grown-ups who talked to him like he wasn't a dumb kid....

I still want more cake.

Glad you are home safe, Perkins.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Now this is a typo that deserves - nay, demands - further explanation.

When you've got rubber globes you don't need to explain.

I picked up Under the Cherry Moon for $1.99 in the discount bin. Whoa. This is a thoroughly ridiculous, but not a boring movie. It is so swanky/eurotrashy/slashy and (I think I mentioned this) ridiculous. But with Prince, of course. And introducing...Kristin Scott Thomas.

move out and draw fire

Speaking as a former teacher, group projects are... but even that frustration can be educational.

Yes, but the lessons you learn doing a group project in school don't really apply in the workplace, because your goals are different. At least for me, my goal with group projects in school was to not have the other students hate me. In the workplace, I don't care if the other folks hate me. And I can use different tactics: the goal is the important thing in the workplace, not the process, so I can involve managers to prod people; I can turn into a manager myself and demand to see work at incremental stages; I can take tasks away from one person and assign them to another; I can patronize, chivvy, tickle, and harrass.

Not that my workplace experience has been anymore successful in achieving the goal by the date specified than school projects were...I've been pretty convinced that none of my cow-orkers learned anything from doing group projects in school anyway.

But if it's brown mold, it will feed off heat, and must be killed with cold!

I was thinking the same thing.

Go Allyson with the new look!

And, well, I realize these are all first world problems.

They are not, though. They are the epitome of universal problems. It's only in the first world that some people DON'T have budget problems. And nothing sucks like budget concerns.

Lily is too cute for words. I love the way she's sleeping, and I love her little leopard-print outfit.

Go Gris!

Annabel is absolutely beautiful. She also looks very intelligent and thoughtful.

Silence means security silence means approval

Demolished houses make me so sad, even if they needed it.

I went back and took more pictures: [link]

They didn't bother to take the renters' stuff out before they started demo'ing. They gave them the 90 required days... we think. If no, I guess a lawyer will be subpoenaing my external HD full of photos.
