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

5 continents, 60,000 miles -- perfect.

Now THAT's the kind of TAR I'm talkin' about!

The entire office is pretty much shut down right now while we all try to figure out alternative commute options in case there's a strike. I can take LIRR, kind of, but it involves a 30 minute walk on both ends. Or I can work from home, kind of -- I'll only have access to email, not anything else on the server.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

There we go! That's the TAR I want to watch.

I think Phil seemed relieved that they were going back to classic format.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The president's bubble requires constant care. It's not easy to keep out huge tragedies like Katrina, or flawed policies like Iraq. As Newsweek noted, a foreign diplomat "was startled when Secretary of State Rice warned him not to lay bad news on the president. 'Don't upset him,' she said."

Isn't it nice that the very day the Newsweek issue comes out with Bush in the Plastic Bubble on the cover, he does his up-close and personal interview for Dateline and specifically tells everyone that he's NOT in a bubble.

Just 'cause he says it, doesn't make it so.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Real TAR will be back in February!

I guess it's not "real" caviar, but I've seen Romanoff red and black lumpfish caviar for under $8 per 3.5 oz jar.

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

Network at work is down. Way down. Except I can still surf using the blackberry. Can't do much work, though.

NYTimes guides to champagne and caviar.

Two of my favorite things. Mmmm.

As her xmas present, I'm taking my minion over to the Caviar Bar at the Ferry Building this Friday. I needed an excuse to sit at the Caviar Bar anyway.

WHY did we not go there when I was in SF?!?

Okay, okay -- the Mission: fun; Ruby the pug: top-notch; leather stores: excellent; Zam Zam: super-keen. (But -- caviar bar! Yum.)
