Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yeah, that's what I figured.

Found a way to restructure it. Sometimes wish my parents spoke slightly less quirky English.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I've heard "the overheads" if the topic of lighting has already been established, but I don't hear it often.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Gorgeous pics, aurelia!

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

Today sucked.

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

Today sucked.

I'm sorry. It's now tomorrow. How's that working for you?

I hope tomorrow doesn't blow.

'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"

aurelia, what pictures! You got sun-rays and everything -- that's good shooting.

I was quite amused this morning when Colbert interviewed the guy from OK Go whose sister choreographs their treadmill dance. Do you think YouTube will be overwhelmed this morning or what?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Lovely photos, aurelia!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Gorgeous pictures, Aurelia! I miss my lakes. One of the annoying things about my trip to MI last week was that I essentially circled a quarter of Lake Erie and I never caught a glimpse of it.

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

Pretty pictures!

ION, New Restaurant Bears Hitler's Name

BOMBAY, India -- When a restaurant called "Hitler's Cross" opened four days ago in a Bombay suburb, the city's small Jewish community was outraged, but there were few other objections.

Owner Puneet Sablok insisted then -- and still does -- that the name and theme of his new eatery is only meant to attract attention, with its posters of Adolf Hitler and swastikas.

"There is no intention to hurt anyone," Sablok said of his spacious restaurant, which serves pastries, pizza and salad in Navi Mumbai, a northern suburb of Bombay, which is also known as Mumbai.

Holocaust awareness in India is limited. Hitler is regarded by many as just another historical figure. The swastika, reviled in many parts of the world, is also an ancient Hindu symbol and displayed all over to bring luck.
