Okay, here's a good boundary: I am saying no to staking.

I have the power to make the onesies! I think I should. But I do have to edit the text to read

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Maybe you could have Nathan sponsor the other cutest one.

If I only had a brain...

Can you put Ads By Google on the other one?

[I probably know somebody who'd cough up.]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

(Speaking of, interesting news about the new employee there.)

"Don' be e-scared"

Years ago I knew this actress (don’t try to figure it out, she was never on any of my shows) who purchased, er, adopted twin babies from an Eastern European country. This actress was known amongst my circle to be a particular narcissist. She seemed to approach the acquisition of these tiny human beings as she would any pricey and exclusive boutique accessory. She even considered “returning” the one she deemed the least aesthetically pleasing. Whenever showing off her new items, she always fawned and cooed over what she termed “the cute one” and would mention the other as a disappointing afterthought.

My friends -- awful writer people -- imagined a “Sophie’s Choice” scenario for her. She’s carrying the two infants and some bags onto a train. She’s told by the conductor, “You must make a choice. You may take only one.” Without hesitating, the actress thrusts the less-cute child forward, “take the ugly one.”

The conductor blinks says, “I meant you can only take one piece of carry-on luggage.”

The actress looks to her designer carry-on bags. Considers it.

Then, still holding the wriggling infant aloft says, “take the ugly one anyway.”

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Heh. I like the awful writer types.

Damn, that'd make a pretty good SNL skit if Angelina Jolie were hosting.
