"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
refer to "Malcolm the tenth" once.
Oh, this is so cute. Did this kid think he was the king of Scotland?
Which would put a weird spin on Idi Amin's Scottish jones, wouldn't it?

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

For values of kid=fourth year psych major, possibly. Though actually, it came up during Black History Month because one of her other students was president of the League of Martin (black police officers' society).

In the aftermath of the historic GOP losses Tuesday night, moderate Republicans quickly concluded that the party needs to be more moderate. Conservative Republicans declared that it should be more conservative. Main Street is angry at Wall Street, theo-cons are angry at neo-cons, and almost everyone is angry at President Bush and the GOP congressional leadership.
They just need a little more factional infighting and they'll be just like the Democratic party.

They just need a lot more factional infighting and they'll be just like Thunderdome.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
My thoughts exactly, Gud.
In the midst of my politcal squeeing, I also have a sinking feeling that the Republicans are going to use it better than the Dems did, and have the advantage in 2008. Hope I'm wrong.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Lee, I think a lot depends on what the Democrats do in the next 2 years. Go in acting like the grownups are now in charge (and yes, that's where I stole the phrase from), pass solid legislation. If that's the case, it may not even matter what the Republicans do in 2008.

To robots, people taste like bacon:
Researchers at NEC System technologies and Mie University have designed the cute little guy to the right: a metal man gastronomist, "an electromechanical sommelier", capable of identifying wines, cheeses, meats and hors d'oeuvres. Upon being given a sample, he will speak up in a childlike voice and identify what he has just been fed. The idea is that wineries can tell if a wine is authentic without even opening the bottle, amongst other more obscure uses...like "tell me what this strange grayish lump at the back of my freezer is/was."
But when some smart aleck reporter placed his hand in the robot's omnivorous clanking jaw, he was identified as bacon. A cameraman then tried and was identified as prosciutto.
