Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Ye gods, my cow-orker was just talking about how we're in so much danger and that I should "start picking out my burka."

(I used the wrong spelling intentionally, because she wouldn't give forth the effort of finding out the right spelling of burqa.)

I can't imagine what it must feel like to live in that much fear.

(Cause we're not in danger, right? Right?! Please, someone send me a comforting blanket of liberally-biased truth.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, in an attempt to avoid doing my actual work, I just moved half my office stuff. Slowly, slowly, but some day I will have an actual office all to myself!!

Jesse, that's a good way of avoiding actual work, IMHO.

You may change your mind. I mean, I thought ASH would always be Taster's Choice Hottie, back in the day.

At least I was doing something actually useful, as opposed to now, when I'm trying to read the entire internet instead of working.

We are in no danger.

The Hollywood/designer cabal would never allow burqa's to take over the world. How would Paris and Lindsey and Nicole get their faces all over the net?

Of course, you could freak out cow-orker by imagining the kinds of bling that could be used with a burqa.

Wise child. Where is he from again? And how old is he?

squirrel sighting

Which I learned from my cousin's visit can be a hysterically funny thing, especially given the sheer quantity of them and the fact that squirrel can be exceedingly hard to pronounce.

Thrive to spite them

I've found a product that claims to be the World's First Cellular Headset Preventing radiation from reaching your brain [link]

The pitch is "The WaveShield FR 4000/4001 not only gives you hands free communication to comply with state regulated laws, but als gives you the maxium protection from any harmful radiation reaching your brain."

This sounds like another Earth Pad rip off thing.
