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.

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

Merry Maids did a fantastic job cleaning up my old apartment and house when I moved out of them. Reasonable prices and I got my security deposit back from the apt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, you wanted a scatter chart. With lines.

Ah! Thank you!

So, I'm watching the Boondocks show, and I wish I didn't know the boys were voiced by Regina King. Now I can only picture her .

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Can you write "Not nice!" on the ballot? Maybe shake wee fists of fury?

I WOULD LOVE THAT! I'm going to ask. The press calls it a vote to ban gay marriage, which, I mean we don't have same sex marriage here anyway. No this goes further, it says that only a man and a woman can get any of the legal benefits.

I'm also obsessively checking email to see if my friend in Paris has news, or is ok or whatever.

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

Wasn't Merry Maids one of the companies in Nickle and Dimed?
I rather hope not since I used them for a while and they aren't the cheapest service out there. Given that I was having it done while we were both (at the time) gone at work and we couldn't find any good personal recs, I demanded the bonded and insured parts.

They always did a really good job.

I read about that one when I was out thataway. I think the fist shaking and "not nice" are exactly how you should vote. Also check the box though, just to be sure. Meanies.

Who wants a cute puppy story?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I do!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

So, Oz is a teeny, but enthusiastic little puppy. Usually this results in his teeny body enthusiastically, but harmlessly, hurtling into things. Mr. Jane and I both got home tired from work this evening, and decided pizza was the thing. So we're watching tv, when suddenly the bubbe (Oz) leaps into the air several feet and launches into the door which flies open to reveal a startled pizza man with bubbe standing proudly on his feet as if to say "PIZZA!"

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

I'll bet he was startled, Daisy.

I'm sitting here wondering what's the likelihood that my daughter will wake up if I go into the kitchen and heat up the last wee piece of blueberry pie. I'm thinking it's worth the risk.

Startled, but charmed, or at least I assume he was since he told us we had to give the dogs a piece.
