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

I've had fun chats with Ple when she was snookered on vodka and Red Bull.

Oh, no. Sorry, Hec. I hope Emmett is feeling better soon

He is already. Though it could be the Dayquil his mom gave him. But I don't mind because his energy level has ramped down to where he's fun and sociable instead of bouncing off the walls and obnoxious.

One of the secret vices of parenthood is that your kid is often their cuddliest when they have a fever.

f it'd happened to me, either my mom would have owned that school, or he would have been nicknamed "Lefty" from that point onward.

heh. my mom would have owned his ass.

I rarely took sick days, my mom was actually kind of a bitch about it. I remember one day my dad came into my room, I told him that I didn't feel well. He said "okay, you're practically an adult, you can decide if you're too sick to go to school." Great, back to sleep. My mom comes in a little later and starts yelling at me. I say that dad said i could stay home, and she said she didn't care, I had to go.

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

Not much different from vodka & Red Bull, I'd think. Not having had either mixer, I could be talking out of my ass.

Red Bull and vodka = yummy.

Like alcoholic Flintstones.

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

Bummer.

LAGOS, Nigeria - A Nigerian murder suspect accused of killing his brother with an axe told police investigators he actually attacked a goat, which was only later magically transformed into his sibling's corpse, officials said Thursday.

The man, whose name wasn't released, offered police his explanation after his arrest on Tuesday in the death of his brother the previous day at Isseluku village in southern Nigeria.

"He said that the goats were on his farm and he tried to chase them away. When one wouldn't move, he attacked it with an axe. He said it then turned into his brother," Police Commissioner Udom Ekpoudom told the Associated Press.

Murder suspects in Nigeria, where many people believe in black magic, sometimes claim spirits tricked them into killing. In 2001, eight people were burned to death after one person in their group was accused of making a bystander's penis magically disappear.

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

In that situation, as in so many, I go for Irish coffee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When I was in college, my best friend's dad took us out for hot Benedictine brandy and coffee. "Because you get drunk, but you're still wide awake!" Man, that was nasty.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

B&B and coffee is my dad's favorite thing to have after a nice dinner out. Add a dessert, and he's happy as can be.

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

Dammit! When I took Polgara to dinner for her birthday, we had this lovely sake and I thought I'd memorised the name, but upon google, it doesn't seem that "Tamade" is right.

Grr. I suck at being good at wines. I wish I didn't, but my brain doesn't keep that info. Yet, I remember Ciroc from one glass weeks before.

Does he make them heat it up? That was really the odd part.
