Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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

What about Michael Moore? I'd say he's mass market liberal.

Also? I am crazy because I am willing to host a family Thanksgiving meal. I am not, however, crazy enough to cook the turkey myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What about Michael Moore? I'd say he's mass market liberal.

But not with a regular outlet. We were talking about Fox News, and saying how the audience for Air America, say, was so small compared to theirs.

That's true, Jesse. Plus Air America is a bit of a snooze. He needs to bring on the funny.

Silence means security silence means approval

The Astros did not score a run in their final 19 innings.

The White Sox went 16-1 over their final 17 regular season and playoff games.

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?

Go Sox!!

Do all the Chicagoistas get tomorrow off?

Unfortunately, no. I've got work and school. Blech.

::scampers off to write paper that's due tomorrow::

Shit's all sorts of different now.

THANK YOU, Aimee -- I knew I was wrong, but couldn't get it together.

Hee! White Christmas is one of my favorite films. Yeah, Rosemary Clooney! One of the things that clicked KristinT and I together so quickly: She was over on one of her visits before she moved and for some reason, I started singng "Sisters". Well, she jumped in, sang the other beautifully and the rest, is herstory.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Missed the game, but went and saw The Squid and the Whale this evening. If it comes anywhere near you, and you are a fan of beautifully-observed, heartbreaking but hilarious, intimate filmmaking, GO. Really really impressive, and those of you who were kids or teenagers in 1986 will have a lot of fun moments of recognition. Funny LA thing--on the way out, there was some sort of lame premiere and a little red carpet. Who was just stepping off of it and in front of us as we walked by on our way to get some dinner but a true D-List celeb, Richard from Beauty and the Geek.

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

Kat, Lorelei was sympathetic, because this was easily the best written GG of the season.

Grr. One of my travel dates was sold out and in the time I spent trying to figure out which one the fares went up. Amtrak's website sucks.
