We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Oh, congratulations David and Jacqueline! Zmaybaby! Zmayling!
And yes, I'm back. I suspect it wasn't all that evident I was gone, but I really was.
And now I'm gone again since I have to go to work. Joy.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Thanks, y'all!

I'm still holding out for the typical first-baby severe lateness that would give us a true Halloweenie.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
