'Out Of Gas'
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.

Yes to the going with "Small World". No to the "afraid he thought I knew about the connection". I undertand your wondering if I was really clueless enough not to know what to say next. Yes Virginia, there really are people that find this whole "dealing with other human beings" thing hard.
Ooh, they printed my Overheard!

It's totally rude. I do always answer the phone by saying my name though, and it irks me when people don't.
