Jayne: We was just about to spring into action, Captain. Complicated escape and rescue op. Wash: I was going to watch. It was very exciting.

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

Comma which! Comma which!

You know, MS Word did something right: their grammar checker ingrained in me the correct way of doing that/which. But I'd say about half of the incredibly smart people and excellent writers/grammarians I work with are ignorant of the distinction.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Comma which!

Pez witch!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What is even happening?

The Office!
UK or US?

YES!

(Okay, lisah beat me to the punch with "BOTH" but I had to pick up my kid from school, and I was totally thinking "YES" beforehand.)

That said, I will throwdown on behalf of The Office (US). The UK original only had fourteen episodes, total. Forty-one episodes of the US adaptation have aired, as of last night.

It's its own show, in its own right, and as of this third season (which, so far, is even better than the awesome second -- the 2nd season being when the show stopped leaning so heavily on the original) it's become my favorite show currently on TV.

I'm not saying the US version is better, but I am saying if I could only have one, I'd give up the UK version (with a bit of a heavy heart, but I'd totally get over it, because I love the US version that much).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm not saying the US version is better, but I am saying if I could only have one, I'd give up the UK version

That's okay, I'll take the UK version for you.

Thanks Ginger! I'll pass it on!

Everyone wins (well, everyone who is us).

Now tagless for your comfort.

Is the WHCA saying stupid people don't understand Stephen Colbert?

A couple of zingers? Not sure if they were on the right CSPAN. Maybe he was watching BookTV because I was rolling.

Always Anti-fascist!

At first, I didn't get the Report either. It helped to see Billo do his thing. Also, *very* dry humor...sometimes if you blink you miss it.
