And almost sixty-five percent of that was actual compliment. Is that a personal best?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Midway is virtually closed down because a plane had a bad landing and busted through the fence and ended up on the street. No one on the plane was hurt, but I heard 3 people on the street were wounded when their cars got hit by the plane.

Damn. A 737. Not a small plane.

{{{Teppy and Chikat}}} I'm so not going in if it is bad out tomorrow. Not for retail wages. No way.

And here, where we should have snow, it rains. Yeah for the snow days but boo for the crappy commutes.

They'd all probably work on you, but I do favor the first (and shortest) cut.

Why am I not surprised by this?

eta: Re-reading, it kind of looked like I was complaining about not getting the snow. I'm not. Really. We can keep rain. No snow or ice is fine by me.

Always Anti-fascist!

I would be snotty and smug right now, but this is like the one time of the year when living in a soulless armpit on the surface of the sun works out. But I still have to be *here* so, really? Not ahead by much.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Adding it all up, tonight I have drunk an ENTIRE BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE. Maybe a little more.

This year's holiday party = better than last year's.

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

Uh. Oh. I've heard the delays at O'Hare are over 2 hours. Midway is virtually closed down because a plane had a bad landing and busted through the fence and ended up on the street.
Yeah, I suspect he is stranded in Denver for the night. He's a priest and doing the services so he wanted to get in as early as possible to just be there for the family. Looks like all of the siblings and cousins will be arriving tomorrow after all.

Oh, he's calling now. Let's eavesdrop and see what happens... [time passes] Flight's cancelled.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

The 13-mile (I just checked on Google maps) commute that generally takes me 20-ish minutes took me 4 hours and 15 minutes.

Lord, Teppy. I'd be a raving, sobbing, drooling maniac.

Cripes. I believe I mentioned the hundred and some people who are supposed to be coming in tonight for this super important conference tomorrow?

I took one look at the streets and took the train home. Eight or ten block walk on the other end was nothing compared to how long it would have taken on my usual "express."

They are saying don't go out unless it's an emergency. But it's supposed to stop snowing later tonight, so hopefully they'll have gotten some plowing done by tomorrow morning.

I'm getting the pig!

Hoping everyone in the path of heavy snow stays safe and warm, or as warm as possible. Safe is the biggie.

My tv just had a southwest airline commercial advertising low fares for flights to Midway.
