I saw Jehovah today for the first time in weeks. Seems like our Lord is displeased with automobiles; he kept making "PSHHHHHHT!!!" noises at the cars driving by and shooting them a wrathful finger.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am sentimentally over-attached to GEB, and bristle at the idea that there's anything better.

What is even happening?

I totally get that. He might be a useful carpool buddy in a bad morning commute.

Sure it's not just foreign models? I remember some of my MI relatives having the same reaction to Toyotas in the '80s.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I just heard a promo for the Columbus Day Parade here, with Antonin Scalia, Maria Bartiromo, and Joe Piscopo. Is that the most random group of three Italian-Americans you've ever heard?

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

You posted this JUST to bait Hec, didn't you?

Only if he is up for belly-raspberries.

Are you offering?

Cindy, I have a vast collection of TV themes and have studyied the subject. It's cool when you find out that Earle Hagen wrote the whistling them for Andy Griffith, as well as the super moody "Harlem Nocturne" and the spy action "I Spy" themes.

Jeff Barry (as I've noted before), the Archies honcho, wrote The Jefferson's theme. He had one of the cast members sing it too, I recall. Maybe the daughter of the mixed race couple?

Raq, I did have some snarky allusion to Rebecca Gayheart and Dead Like Me but didn't want to be spoilish. But I'll white font and say She got kicked off DLM and Firefly very early, and I can't help but wonder if it's related to her manslaughter charge, where she went around a stopped car at crosswalk and ran over a kid. Not that they were directly related, but just that she might have a particularly selfish and reckless personality.

This filming is SO cheesy.

When I was taking karate, it was made pretty clear to us students that ideally we'd never use our skills in a real life fight, because our goal was to live life so rightly that we'd never get into a situation where the skills were needed. YRightlyLivedLifeMV

FWiW, though, just acting confident and calm will head off a lot of trouble, and that's the sort of attitude that karate, tai chi, and other martial arts (as well as yoga) fosters.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

It might be related to the fact that Rebecca Gayheart can't act. I've hated her since her soap days.

Are you offering?

Now, which one of us has a fuzzy belly? I ask you!

Hint: not the one who can't grow facial hair.

It's the attitude they're supposed to foster. Depends on the quality of both teacher and student. It's really easy to avoid being inculcated with the psychological attributes.

I'm thinking that with yoga, it's harder to get the psych bits than not, because of how it's now presented.
