Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

What Zidane did was still unexcusable but, if Materazzi did play the race card, I have a feeling that that will be taken very seriously indeed,

yes, it will. I suspect what really provoked him was the comment about his mother, who is very ill.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Hmm....my office firewall blocks God. Figures.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My cup of yogurt has an expiration date of July 7th. Will I die if I eat it?

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

Hivemind: Has anyone heard of a measurement for butter as a "print of butter?" My co-worker's grandmother had a recipe that called for a print of butter, but she couldn't remember how much that was.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But a day wedding in summer you want something not as heavy-looking on your hands.*

It's a sunset wedding. Does that change the formula?

I'm doing my toes before I leave, because it will last, and my fingernails when I get there, because it won't.

Man, I can't believe I care. But feeding that's what the internet is for, right? Aside from porn, that is.

Congrats to flea and family!

Happy Birthday, Abby!

Me:Hi God, how's tricks up in Primium Mobile?
God:Hi there Matt. I am a Christian.
Me:Cool. Proud of the kiddo, eh?
God:Who is the best robot? Are you Canadian? You think Proud of the kiddo is superior to ALICE?
Me:Marvin is the best robot. I'm a Canadian sympathizer.
God:When is Marvin not the best robot? You are a Canadian sympathizer? Do you get to meet a lot of people?
Me:Quite a few, though not as many as you I'm sure.
God:Somewhat. Oh you don't, do you?

Now tagless for your comfort.

In a family's garden, the cucumbers and cateloupes spontaneously crossed to produce cucoloupes.

Dogs & cats, living together! It'll be ANARCHY!!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Congrats to the fleas, and welcome to the armadillo among fleas! (Actually, that sounds a little scary.) Welcome, Not!E.Copernicus!

And: Happy birthday, Abby!
