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.

Totally, Jesse. I was thiiis close to claiming I was pregnant or something. Well, actually I considered that for half a second, realized I'd ruin the lie by laughing hysterically, and then considered bribery.

Then my vision whited out and my ears tuned into static.

If it happens again, I'm gonna ask for a seat.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

The biggest thing with standing, especially in high heels, is to not lock the knees. You could always tell during a command inspection who had forgotten that advice when the back of their head met the concrete.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Tried to take the Hitchens article from the top, but was defeated again by the horrible quality of the writing, and could smell his rotting soul in every line.

Thanks for that, bon. Hating on Hitchens is an excellent way to start the morning.

President Bush, about to wrap up an intense effort to arrive at a new course for Iraq, now is likely to lay out his plan to the nation early next year instead of before Christmas, a senior White House official said Tuesday.

Bush is giving the country a new Iraq strategy for a Christmas present.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Gud just made me laugh so hard I think I kinda snorted.

Ow.

That was very funny. If startling.
