Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

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

It's like a good/bad day for ita.

On the one hand, she saved a life. On the other, she didn't get to beat the crap out of anyone to do 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.

How extra-cute are these considering they're touted as completely slip-proof?

Even on ice? If so, I could use a pair....

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

ita, have you ever worn their shoes? Cause, especially with the rain here, I could use some less slippy shoes and I just found a pair that I want and are a great deal. Tempted to want, buy, have.

eta: Great deal because they are out of my size. Feh. Still trawling the site though. I definitely need a new pair or two of shoes for winter. Something with closed toes perhaps. Maybe even a closed heel.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm in agreement with Edna from The Incredibles in the dangers of superhero capes. They're a liability.

Also, toddlers in parking lots give me hives. I won't even set my own on the ground if I can avoid it. I park next to the cart corral and pretty much move the kids from car to cart without having to put them on the ground. I've actually driven away from stores if the cart corral is empty.

I like you people.

I think ita would much prefer superhero shoes. Or maybe I'm projecting. You know you must have interesting shoes when the head of facilities remarks on your shoe habit. And the funny thing is, I probably only wear 3 regularly in rotation. But I guess they are different enough to gain notice (two fluevogs and the sketchers mjs.)

Jack Palance, the craggy-faced menace in Shane, Sudden Fear and other films who turned successfully to comedy at 70 with his Oscar-winning self-parody in City Slickers, died yesterday. He was 87.

Someone in FL apparantly used a very rare stamp (worth about $200,000) to mail in an absentee ballot. [link]

God, that is someday going to be me, what with my lousy mailing stats.

OK, so my safeway card (I'm nominally neutral negative on shopper cards, but..I shop there regularly) says I get a 10cent/gallon discount on gas through the end of the month. But doesn't tell me how. Lame!

I'm now subjecting myself to local news to hopefully figure out why there were police helicopters over me for over 2 hours. Was freaky. And I gotta admit, I was maliciously hoping it was after my neighbor's son and his friends. They are loud jackasses. I've called the cops on them once, witnessed 2 other cop visits and and planning on reporting it to the leasing office (hey, I've gotten one other resident evicted, right?) The neighbor and her husband are nice. But their teenagers? Jackasses.
