Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My penmanship is fairly terrible. A large part of it, according to my elementary school teachers, is because I hold my pen the wrong way, but when I try holding it the right way, it's not any better, and I can only write a few words before getting uncomfortable.

We got report card grades on handwriting up until sixth grade. After that, I switched over to printing whenever I could. I can print much more quickly than I can write in cursive.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I saw some guy on Small Space, Big Style who got rid of his stove/oven in NYC. He relies on a toaster oven and a teeny microwave.

I don't know why I'm so shocked. We didn't get a microwave until I was in 8th grade so I know it's possible.

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

brenda, I think you got those last two links backwards.

I usually write block letters, and yess, it's small caps, but it doesn't usually read as ASSCAPS to me. I think between not being uniform computer font letters, and using bigger caps for the starts of sentences and proper nouns, it helps keep the ASSCAPS effect down.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There are a couple of things I'd like to use it (edit: the microwave, not the handwriting) for, but it's not worth giving up the space.

Oh yeah, handwriting in all caps is totally different.

Mine is a hodgepodge of lower case, upper case, and cursive. But it's legible.

So I was riding a bus to work this morning when I saw a bunch of cop cars in front of a building on Dodge Ave. Then after lunch I drove past the building again - the police cars were still there, there was yellow crime-scene tape and two Police vans marked 'Forensic' on them. It turns out that a four-year-old kid shot himself - he died this afternoon.
