Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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

I think a $228 bra should be pretty much invisible. Much more than that one.

Regexp humour.

IKEA! I must go to IKEA this weekend! Not so much because I need a whole lot of furniture, but because it's THERE.

Somervillains, who wants to go with me?

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

Jess, I need a skirt(s) to go with the red boots I bought in Minn. You could help me find one.

Ooh, project!

ION, ew! Poor turtle!

All Marjorie Morris wanted to do was pour her freeze-dried coffee into a canister.

But as she dipped into the package of Folgers, she got an unexpected surprise -- a dead baby turtle.

"I thought it was a toy at first," said Morris, 77, of Ainsworth.

Lee, I'd pair them with something like this.

Or this

OK, I like that Marjorie. Perfect response. Plus, free conversation piece!

Our wings are not tired.

Poor baby turtle. Blaming it on the hurricane was kinda lame.

I'm going to a HS football game tonight with the boys. My local school is doing particularly well this year and DH wants to go cheer them on.

IKEA? It's not as much fun if you don't go with someone else.

There must be someone on this board who needs a Holiday Edition Darth Vader.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Lee, I'd pair them with something like this. Or this

Oh, nice! I like them both.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm going to a HS football game tonight with the boys. My local school is doing particularly well this year and DH wants to go cheer them on.

I'm listening to my alma mater's game on the radio tonight--it's the quarterfinals, and Joliet Catholic (ranked #1 in the state, and #4 in the country) is playing #2 state-ranked Morris. The state playoffs are split up by regions, not seeded like the NCAA, unfortunately, so this matchup is considered the game to watch, not the finals. Definitely looking forward to hearing JCA stomp all over them! (They've outscored their opponents 542-181 this season.)
