To me this sounds like "There's nothing good on TV, and if you're foolish enough to try to go out somewhere, you'll need a chainsaw to cut through the crowds."We can use chainsaws? Rock!
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Which is why I don't go anywhere the day after Thanksgiving. Except maybe the bar.

This thanksgiving we'll be going to northern Iowa so we can have thanksgiving with my kids' great-great-grandmother. She's 110 so this could be the last chance. The only downside is that it's been about five years since I've had thanksgiving with my extended family, but I can't argue with the age factor. My grandfather is 98 though, so I want to do thanksgiving there next year.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Just bopping by to say -- Colbert had the Segway inventor on his show last night, and Stephen got to drive a super-spiffy wheelchair around the stage -- it runs on two wheels like a Segway, but converts to a four-wheel drive for going up stairs, and lowers down like a regular chair. I've never been more than lukewarm about the Segway becuase I'm mostly, "well, wouldn't it be just as easy to walk?" but DAMN if research for that invention has led to this invention, I take it all back, so to speak.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
but DAMN if research for that invention has led to this invention, I take it all back, so to speak.
I'm not positive, but I think it was the other way around.

Yeah, I was thinking the wheelchair came first.

This may be the coolest thing I've ever seen on DealNews:
Starting at 1 pm ET today, Sam's Club offers its members the Cessna Citation Mustang Light Jet for $2,734,600. That's about $1 million off list price and the lowest we could find for such a jet. Plus, you'll also get a Sam's Club Lifetime Membership with this purchase.
