I thank God for my college math prof, who was also the head of the department. She was great about stopping her explanation of whatever if she spotted a confused look on a student, even in a classroom of 100 students, and saying, "What don't you get, because I won't go on until you understand it." It was probably one of the lower levels of math (basically pre-calc), so I was surprised to find out the head of the dept. was teaching it, but she was wonderful!
My god...he's gonna do the whole speech.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Also, that article failed to mention if velociraptors can work old-style elevators with the cage-type doors you have to open, and then press a button to get to my floor. Also, do they have a good sense of smell, and if they smell the cat box that hasn't been cleaned in a while, will that attract or repell them?

you should never be farther than 20 feet away from a tire iron.

Re: baseball. How much longer is the World Series? I tried to look it up but all I found were detailed stories about somebody's pitching hand with dirt on it and all that. I just want to know how much longer I have to do without House and Bones.

Baseball's off tonight, but they've played two games so far and it will go to a minimum of five games since they've split the two already played, so the earliest baseball will be finished will be Thursday or Friday (can't remember if they take a day off between games 4 and 5).

Not if they go after each other.

Swords are better, unless the velociraptor happens to be wearing chainmail.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
How much longer is the World Series?
It can be over as soon as Thursday, but as late as Sunday. So new House next week.

Good point. So what you need to do is cover your floor with sticky stuff. This will delay the zombies just long enough for a velociraptor to show up.
But not vice-versa.
