I'm earwormed with Southern Cross Brit now. Grrrrrr.
Thanks a *lot*, Cass. Really.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

Trust my rage
And consider the source.
I'll tell him. He's always interested in what the buffistas have to say. The not so (funny) part of the whole story is that he hurt his knee the first time playing soccer for PT. THe Army went to this "no games during PT" thing a while ago, but lots of people violate because games are more fun than constant weight lifting and running. Still, I think Joe proves why it is a good rule.
Amiee, that sounds like a great apartment. Are you guys moving?

We're thinking about it. We're being very very very picky.
It might very well be a crack den. It's above a street we wanted to stay below, but we'll go see. I'd rather hardwood, but I'll settle for carpet if I get 1300 sq ft.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Sorry, brenda, I just had to share.
I'm boggling at the rent. $1250 for a place that big???Me too. That would be $1800-$2800 here, depending on location. At least. Huh.

And definitely go see the place.
The house I rent is waaaaaay below market. We managed to find it before it was even advertised so I figured it was meant for me to live here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My brother once found an apartment that was hundreds of dollars below the market rate. Turns out the landlord/owner was an old lady who had owned it for ages and never bothered to raise the rent along with the market rates. Turns out she had a hard time renting it, because most people must have figured there was something wrong with the place, given what she was charging. My brother and his friends figured that too, but they figured it was at least worth checking out. Good thing they did.

Librarian Warlord
Apparently librarian work is very stressful
I've seen this kind of result for librarian work before. I just wonder about where they got their librarians from -- "trapped between bookshelves" doesn't sound like professional work. Heck, I feel like I rarely touch a book and whenever anyone asks me about being a librarian because s/he "loves books" I tell them to learn Latin and look into being a rare book librarian because the rest of us are on computers all day.
I boggle at the price of that apartment. There was one here in Berkeley that was 2400 sq/ft for $2500 that I drooled over during an open house once.
