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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I probably also meant to spell oppressors correctly.

Swouncing

Cashmere, I just love walking around the streets here in Sukkot, and just notice all of them hiding in back parking lots and roofs and such, each of them a nice little surprise.

I believe he had a few musicians with him, too, who were playing

Oh, during Jewish holidays (and saturdays, too), one is not allowed to play an instrument, so all the dancing is done in rhythm of the songs that are being sang (again, without music) by those who dance.

And the look on his face was utter joy.

Oh, that's lovely.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Is Whedonesque broken for anybody else, or is it just me? I can't see any comments on it.

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

When they put up the "please don't wet the toilet paper rolls" sign in the bathroom -- lo, they stopped getting randomly wet.

The sign is gone now.

The rolls are getting wet again.

Really wet.

What is wrong with people?

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

I picked this up somewhere else. It's a passage from Harriet Miers's answers to the Senate questionnaire.

My experience on the City Council helps me understand the interplay between serving on a policy making board and serving as a judge. An example, of this distinction can be seen in a vote of the council to ban flag burning. The Council was free to state its policy position, we were against flag burning. The Supreme Court’s role was to determine whether our Constitution allows such a ban. The City Council was anxious to encourage minority and women-owned businesses, but our processes had to conform to equal protection requirements, as well.

My City Council service and working in economic development activities afforded me with special insight into the importance of a stable, respected, and fair judiciary in which the public can have confidence.

I copy-check my email better than this woman copy-checks an application to the US Senate to become one of the most powerful people in the world.

ETA: of course, having said that, I've edited this twice. But how was I supposed to know the italics tag doesn't persist across paragraphs?

ETA: make that three edits.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Hi everyone! Thanks for the birthday wishes. And Happy Birthday, Calli!

Nilly, I'm so glad you are still around. I love your explanation of Jewish traditions and services. I was hoping you could explain to me what it means when someone dies between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. That's when my father passed away. I know it's propitious, but I don't really know why.

Yep. Me, too. Suddenly Miers's assessment of Dubya's brilliance is coming into focus.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

When they put up the "please don't wet the toilet paper rolls" sign in the bathroom -- lo, they stopped getting randomly wet.

This is really really gross.

Working fine for me, Kevin.
