I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

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

Is b.org really slow for anyone?

Which season was that so I can track down the DVDs?

Um, I think the bit with Ducky was in the very beginning of season three, although you'll probably want to check out the end of season two for more of the sexy terrorist backstory.

Maybe Chicago is instituting random security checks the way they are on the MBTA in the Boston area.

In that case, I do not think "random" means what they think it means.

Do they start to twitch and sweat profusely when they can't get to their favorite sites?

I'm really hungry. I'm trying to decide what to get for lunch. I've narrowed it down to "meat." Perhaps a hunk of cow.

Officials at an elementary school south of Boston have banned kids from playing tag, touch football and any other unsupervised chase game during recess for fear they'll get hurt and hold the school liable.

Recess is "a time when accidents can happen," said Willett Elementary School Principal Gaylene Heppe, who approved the ban.

I remember when Steffie T walked into a pole at recess and split her top lip open. She had a visible scar 15 years later. They should banned walking!!!@!!

"Addicts" showed signs of compulsive internet use, habitually checking e-mail, websites and chat rooms.

Did people used to be "addicted" to newspapers? Telephones? Mail? Or is it only contemporary basic communication that is considered pathological?
