Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

MG - glad you found your mom!

And man, from the teeny tiny flakes that started coming down at lunch -- it's really coming down now -- it's lovely.

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

I think the last one is the prettiest, Perkins.

MG, what a nightmare! At least there's a good ending.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I agree with ita.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yup, last one is good.

Mom is now home, tucked in bed, pain meds taken, food eaten, ready for nappage.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I liked the last one and the second to last one. Pretty shiny baubles.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hey, Teppy -- I know YOU have food year-round but... [link]

HEY! Maybe "the smell" was the return of Mallomars!

Oh, and guess what! We're getting a Trader Joe's! Now NYC is perfect.

Glad to hear your Mom is home and resting, MG. I bet you are, too.

Meanwhile, is anyone hiding the statistics on the outcome/resolution of every patent claim filed in 2004 (including how much the plaintiffs asked for and how much they were actually awarded) up their butt? Because I can't seem to pull this information out of mine, and the attorney doesn't believe it.

MG, glad to hear your mother's found, home, and all right. May she be pain free.
