Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oo, Robin, I am jealous! What a lovely evening.

ita, I'm glad there was cake, and that the migraines were on their best behavior.

So lucky! What fun!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It'd be okay. The problem would come when you had to keep changing the kid's name every other month when a new version of the product came out.

Or the company gets bought -- isn't that what happened to the new Boston Garden? It was the Fleet Center? But then there was no more Fleet Bank? Edit: Oh yeah, that's tragic: now it's the "TD BankNorth Garden." [link]

Sounds fun, Robin! You found just the right lure for her!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I see that people both came up with my naming solution for the twins and my guess as to who Robin's skating partner did. Still, even though I was beat to it, I have the satisfaction of knowing I came up with the "right" answers.

Hell, I'll take my satisfaction whereever I can possibly shoehorn in the slightest amount of satis.

Today will be enlivened with a visit to an orthopedist to try to figure out what is wrong with my shoulder, which is still hurty if I try to stretch my arm too high overhead or touch my opposite shoulder blade. If it was just that it hurt when I threw a javelin, I'd give up javelin-tossing, but I'm too young to have to give up reaching for stuff on the top shelf, you know? I suppose there's going to be x-rays and or MRIs and fun stuff like that there. I suppose a small amount of shoulder-ma would be in order....

My coworker just uttered the phrase "There's nothing wrong with sweatshops, those people need to support themselves too."

Quick! Remind me that murder will land me in jail. (I don't know that it would be "wrong" in this case.)

To slightly misquote Doonesbury: "Murder may or may not be right or wrong, but it sure is illegal!"

Don't do it, Ailleann!

She just.... it just baffles me how she can hold some of the views she does. I would never deny her the right to her opinion. I just can't believe it.

In other news, people should really watch Beauty and the Geek. The premiere of the current season was this week, and they're so cute.

You could always frame her for someone else's murder. Any unsolved homicides in your area that you could drop a few DNA sample-laden items at the site of?

I'm not helping, am I?
