Happy Birthday, JZ.
Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Many joyous birthday wishes to JZ! I am so lucky to get to share your generous heart, wise council, cool fashion sense and snarky wit here in Buffistaland.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOVELIEST OF JZs!!!!!
I hope Jay-Z doesn't get all bent out of shape over this. Though, to be fair, I'm pretty sure I was JZ waaaaaaay first, so he's really just a JZ-come-lately anyhow.

Happiest of birthdays to JZ!!!!
I hope replacing side mirrors isn't too expensive for those who have to do so--when mine was stolen (yes, it was there when I came home from work and not there the next morning), they had to replace the entire thing and it ended up costing me $210 (it would have been twice as much if I had the power mirror that I have now).

Ann, that's a ferret.
I hope Jay-Z doesn't get all bent out of shape over this.
I doubt he'd want to be called "lovely." Just doesn't seem to fit his image somehow.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I'm still wondering what happened to the side mirror on my old car. I was parked at a friend's house nearby, for only an hour or two, but when I came out, the whole assembly --housing and mirror-- had either been wrenched or knocked off. Since we couldn't find it anywhere on the street, sidewalk or underneath nearby cars, my best guess is that it was straightforward theivery. Still, it was broken off to judge from the plastic left behind....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
From Feministing:
Our crush of the week is Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, after seeing a recent speech he made at an event for Equality Now. Check it out. So hot.
The speech itself was top-notch. What I think should be the take-home part is,
- "Why do you write these strong female characters?"
-"This is ridiculous... why don't you ask a hundred other guys why they don't?"
or the final answer, "Because you're still asking me this question."
I haven't actually watched the interview yet....

Woe to the fucking wicked.
It's not an interview. It's a speech. His central theme is that people keep asking him why he writes strong female characters (dozens of times a day during press tours), and his speech is primarily made up of answers to that question.
