Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hey, have you tried JDate?

I don't know if I'm Jew enough for JDate. I don't observe the Sabbath, and bacon is fantastic.

But i make a mean matzo ball soup and remember the Sabbath prayer pretty much.

I'm such a crappy Jew.

Hey Jilli. Happy birthday!

Was thinking of you, was looking for a plush bat backpack for my nephew. He goes to school now.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Oh, whatta story! I love good beat reporting, and I love happy endings. This is both: a straightforward Metro Section story about a housefire, and neighbors dashing outside barefoot, and a quilt stretched out for children to fall into, and a determined mom making fast decisions about how to save her five kids. A great story well-told, that ends well, and proof that crymaking drama is as effective on the small scale as in any epic.

I love rescue stories.

Yup, Mountain Meadows. Not a subject of popular discussion in these parts. To the church's credit, they do cooperate when historians want to investigate the matter.

How exactly did the commemorative statue to Major John Lee that was almost erected in 2004 get commisioned, anyway? Seems to me that would be like Berlin putting up a statue in Hitler's honor.

Usually I am all for kink, but apparently that doesn't apply when there is the potential for maggots.

Yeah, I mean how difficult could it be to find a furry with a deer costume on Craigslist and avoid all the ickiness? Well, some of the ickiness, maybe...

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

Congratulations, Allyson!

Were you able to find a plush bat backpack for your nephew? Or should I check some of the usual gothy places for you?

This is the bat backpack but I can't figure out how to buy it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Allyson, they have a questionnaire on JDate that covers your degree of observance; it's a pretty popular service at least out here and I wouldn't avoid it just because you're not observant.
