Oh, Jesse. Why'd you have to go and link that? Why?
Only to share my pain. If I'm going down, I'm bringing people with me!!
Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Los Feliz is PISSED. Standing room only, lots of greaser boys and gurls dressed in 1940s sex-ay attire, old folks from the neighborhood. My neighbor and i got interviewed for the news.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Los Feliz should be pissed. Like LA needs another Whole Foods?

A developer purchased the Derby nightclub, which is a local swing club that was built in the 40s. It's beautiful. One of the Angel wrap parties was there, and I like to go and watch the swing dance classes every now and again.
They want to tear it down, and build a Whole Foods with 80 luxury condos on top and surrounding it, thus killing the local Nature Mart and the entire character of my neighborhood.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
They want to tear down The Derby and build a Whole Foods.

I think we should call Vince Vaughn and make him wear a Save the Derby t-shirt all the time for when he's photographed with Jennifer Aniston.

The Scrabble dictionary disagrees.
Yep. I realize that. But I disagree with their disagreement.
So what will Los Feliz do about it, Allyson?

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Like a bunch of women in lingerie and wings protesting the destruction of the rainforest outside the Victoria's Secret show. Other than the fact that VS has catalogs I just don't see the connection.
The claim ( is that VS saves money on their catalogs by not using recycled paper, and that their catologs contain a high percentage of old growth pulp. If true, not a trivial connection.

Abstract
Among a fringe community of paranoids, aluminum helmets serve as the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals. We investigate the efficacy of three aluminum helmet designs on a sample group of four individuals. Using a $250,000 network analyser, we find that although on average all helmets attenuate invasive radio frequencies in either directions (either emanating from an outside source, or emanating from the cranium of the subject), certain frequencies are in fact greatly amplified. These amplified frequencies coincide with radio bands reserved for government use according to the Federal Communication Commission (FCC). Statistical evidence suggests the use of helmets may in fact enhance the government's invasive abilities. We theorize that the government may in fact have started the helmet craze for this reason.
