Aw, damn, Jack Palance died. (Chicago Tribune reg. req'd. to read.)
Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Damn!

I'm really more of a pour booze in glass. Drink sort of person.
I had a friend get a screwdriver recipe named after him. Basically, you fill a glass with the vodka of your choice, open the refrigerator, show the orange juice to the glass of vodka, say "that was almost in you," and drink.
Maybe close the refrigerator door at some point.

Aimee, I'm sorry to hear about Joe's woes. Hope things turn around soon.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
So after five hours at school cleaning out drawers and making files and organizing, then half-falling asleep while getting ready to leave, I run into the principal on the way out. I explain that I'm going home to nap. He suggests that I GO SEE THE CITY! NOW! With lots of detail about taking BART to a trolley to a bus to the bridge... god, I hate perky people.

Sad about Jack Palance, but he's had a pretty good run. Wasn't he half a billion years old already?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, no! Jack!
ita, here it is on YouTube, for a quick fix:
Man, the audio of the 80s holds up much better than the visuals.
I had some sort of incident with Malibu rum in my dissolute youth, and can't go near the stuff.
Yesterday someone broke the leftover bottle of rum from the krav Halloween party. Everyone's freaking out at the alcohol smell, and I just felt at home. I was sad when they mopped it up.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sounds similar to the (probably urban legend) Winston Churchill method for mixing a martini. (Fill a martini glass with gin while looking vaguely in the direction of the vermouth.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Half a billion SEEMS old -- until you are 499,999,999 and then...

I've seen at least one recipe that instructs you to wave the vermouth bottle over the glass of gin.
