How did the dog get injured? Did it really swallow a foreign object?

Have you met a dog? What are the chances it didn't?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

So they were going to hijack a plane with a shoe bomb? Color me confused.

ETA: Wait- are these the same people who were going to take out a bridge with blowtorches?

Oh dear, I think my public defender friend needs a vacation. She just admitted that she said, in court "They're being poopie-heads and, well, I'm trying to make them not be poopie-heads."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

It's very quiet today.

Kelly Clarkson won 2 Grammys. I like her, but I have to wonder if that woman who won the acting reality show is gonna ever win an Oscar.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Best first line for a story evah:

Al Michaels was traded from ABC to NBC for a cartoon bunny, four rounds of golf and Olympic highlights.

The bunny in question is Walt Disney's precursor to Mickey Mouse, Oswald the Rabbit. [link]

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

Man killed with coffee mug. (Not going to post an excerpt because it's a pretty graphic article.)

Happy Birthday, Maidengurl! I hope you brought some good reading material to your treatment. *g*

Zillow says my house is worth at least $50K more than I thought it was. As in, it's more than doubled in value since I bought it.

Man, it makes me want to sell, cash out, and go live in the South Pacific.

Happy Birthday Maidengurl!

Okay, my upstairs neighbors are very nice and have been really quiet lately, but they are pretty flaky sometimes. I was sitting down after supper, and the doorbell rang. All my friends know my front door doesn't lock, and just walk into the foyer and knock on my door. If the doorbell rings, it's almost always for upstairs. So I ignored it. Then someone upstairs comes down and opens the door, and it's one of their friends. Then they stand in the foyer and have a conversation trying to figure out which doorbell is for which apartment, and proceed to ring my doorbell about 5 times in a row. At which point I open the door and say, "You're ringing my doorbell!" And they're like "Oh, is that your doorbell? We weren't sure." Aaah!

It's not a huge leap of logic that the lower doorbell belongs to the groundfloor apartment and the upper doorbell belongs to the upstairs apartment, is it? Because it seems to be beyond the cognitive abilities of most of their friends.
