It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Re: Dyan Cannon: why would you want to show that chest off? She needs some kind of complicated system of levers and pulleys to keep the boobs up, not to mention the gross skin. Also, girl, get some matte on that. Shiny does not work at your age.

i wonder how many people, if asked, believe that the sun revolves around the earth.

Do you really want to know?

In a 1999 Gallup Poll: 18 %.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

That's not what he told the good child, Beverly. He tells him, "You are always with me, and everything I have is yours. We're celebrating because your brother was lost, and now he's found. He was dead (the "to us" is implicit), and now he's alive." And of course, that was a parable, not an account.

What I get for accepting what I was taught in Sunday School...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

More than half of Americans believe in Creationism/ID/Not!Darwin....

Holy crap. That's boggling. Of course, I believe that the whole shebang was indeed created, by some kind of intelligence, but in my mind those are both "why/to what [Pooh case] Purpose" questions and don't interfere in the least with accepting that Darwin and the various brilliant folks who've followed him are perfectly right about the mechanics of the how and to what small-p purpose.

Is there any breakdown of that more than half by specific faith/sect? 'Cause, thinking it over, I don't know if I've ever met anyone in my own sect who believes in young-earth creationism.

t thinks

Maybe one person. Maybe the one. But just the one. I think.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Holy crap. That's boggling.

I'll just let JZ speak for me from now on.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

BB: AS watchers-- who do you think will get thrown out tonight, and do you think there is any reason to care?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Hmmm, conversations about religion/belief and boobage running side-by-side...must be Natter!

BB: AS watchers

I always get a twinge when I see that, because there's invariably a millisecond when I think "Ben Browder watchers? HELLS YEAH," and then I remember Big Brother and get all disappointed.

I'll just let JZ speak for me from now on.

Except for the gracious and elegant world of tea lore and rituals, in which I entirely defer to you.
