Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Not unless Melville's Pierre said I DON'T CARE.

No he just (probably) slept with the woman who was (probably) his sister. Although if I remember correctly, he does get eaten. Or consumed. Or maybe just dies of consumption.

No, I believe that was Bartleby.

Bwahahahahahaha!!!!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

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

Someone needs to do "Bartleby the Scribner" as a children's book. Let's see - what animal should Bartleby be? I'm thinking wombat.
