Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I just figured out who you are.

I haven't. I got stuck on carnation.

I haven't, but I freely admit that my brains have turned to mush recently.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I can't decide if I feel better or worse that I don't feel like I've even covered half of what I have to say in jackass paper and yet I've just about reached the jackass short page limit.

This class is making me nuts. Actually, a friend and I Took Action today and sent an email about it to our department chair. I was writing out the email all reasonable and measured, but A insisted I end it with "PS: A says, "This class sucks!!" The chair is the kind of person who will think this is funny.

THAT'S NOT A FLOWER!!!

By which I mean, that's not a flower I would ever have thought of, only much more petulant and whiny.

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

Maybe they can even find a way for her to shoot Gina Torres again !

I also really enjoyed Marshall and Rachel geeking out on each other.

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

In Nuttyese: "Bring it on, Bitch!"

No, no, no. It is Nuttyese for "I would like to butt in now, but am too polite to do that till you finish your sentence, so hurry the hell up."

I am large with the nonverbal language that way.

oop, marhsmallows are done melting!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

DJ, I want to know about FEMA and their transitional housing when you have a minute and want to rant. Consider this an open invitation.

Dude. My whole job is to help people get into houses. We're just now getting the last people out of the shelters- but to where? Hotels mostly and apartments, some of which are charging horribly high deposit fees after 3 months- you see, they'll get their go'vt money and still recoup the rent. Any sensible agency would've located vacancies, locked in rates, and then put people in them. Got to be better than a hotel. And, of course, this should be done on top of any aid money to the victims. Thing is, even if they could competently negotiate housing, their application process and communication is so freaking poor, none of these people know how to get the aid and the housing. Half the time, I just bypass FEMA and go directly to whoever is offering housing. Third, they need to be offering housing closer to NO (which HUD did) and temp jobs so that people aren't forced to choose between not returning and surviving.

I haven't. I got stuck on carnation.

Hmm. Think fields of. Or Mexican. Or grey.
