Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Obviously I knew that Armenians are a people; I didn't realize they had a sovereign nation. Pathetic!

For Xmas my husband gave me a box, with a hole cut in it, and inside were pictures of Dick Cavett, Dick Van Dyke, Dick Van Patten, Moby Dick, etc.

That is so awesome! I have to remember to send the link to my parents, once my father has the new computer up and running. I couldn't get it to run on the old one.

And why is it that most scofflaws are of the parking ticket variety?

Well, especially in San Francisco, parking just sucks far beyond the telling of it, and it's almost impossible to live there without getting a parking ticket.

In SF, parking scofflaws are usually just refered to as "residents."

Been spending the long weekend in front of the Discovery Channel, Sean?

Yes. There has been jack else on the last few days.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Kergistan, is how it's pronounced, I think.

Dear client,

I do not know what to tell you when you call and say, "Someone told me to call this number." I do not know with whom you wish to speak or what service you need. Also, this number rings to everyone's office. Please, in the future, listen to the message someone so thoughtfully left for you (and no, I don't believe you that they didn't leave one) and then call when you know who and why you are calling.

Thank you, Admin.

PS That's Admin NOT A FUCKING RECEPTIONIST!

Ah, this reminds me of when I was a receptionist back in the heyday of pagers. "Someone paged me." Um, do you have any idea who? "No. They called from this number." Yeah, sorry, this is the number for a hundred people. No clue? "Who paged me?"

Question: what do you call a long opiniony piece from the NYTimes magazine? Not an article, right? Because it's not news? "Piece" is the other thing I can think of, but that sounds weird to me.
