Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Threshold:

I like Dutton okay on the show. It isn't a perfect show by a long shot, but I don't think Dutton is worse than any of the others - with the except of Dinklage who is the best.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

It's funny you say that, Laura, since for me grapefruit=run screaming from the room in loathing

Me, too, Robin. Hate the stuff. It's just way too sour for me.

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

Me, too, Robin. Hate the stuff. It's just way too sour for me.

Even the pink stuff? Even if you sprinkle sugar on it?

I can't eat grapefruit, as one or more of the drugs I take has warnings that if I do, my head will explode.

I have to pour sugar all over it, a sprinkle isn't anywhere near enough. And, at that point, I figure that I might as well have a doughnut.

Sophia, why does the watch need to be fixed at all? I'm assuming by "broken" you mean "has stopped" or "doesn't tell time correctly", not "has springs and bits of machinery falling out of it". As long as it looks okay, what's the problem?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Oh no-- the band broke off the watch.... It does not look OK! It in fact also does not tell time, and the watch repair people thought I was craxy because I just wanted them to fix or replace the band.

I may have signed myself up to rewrite "The Music Man" with John and Rodney.

gives new meaning to "Seventy-Six Trombones", I think

Oh, gotcha. I thought maybe the director or the actor wanted the watch to work because it would, I don't know, help the actor stay in character or something. Which, while a laudable attitude for, say, the Lord of the Rings movies, maybe doesn't have to extend all the way down to university theatre on a tight budget.

I am also extra cranky today because I am doing data entry in a database where I have to PAGE THROUGH ALL THE RECORDS to see if I am entering a duplicate!

Also, the heat in my apartment is not working (I pay for it), so I need to clean my kitchen so I can call the landlord. I am-- it hasn't gone below 55 in the apartment, but much colder and I'll be worrying about the kitty. (although I do have to say that last night I was quite toasty with just a comforter and the cat. )

No, it is totally a costume thing-- like he never even is scripted to look at the watch or say something about the watch. it just makes this boy look more like The Secretary of Defense (or as he is called in this play "The Secretary of Offensive Defenestration")
