The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Well, at least the SoCal people will cry for me.

I will too!

at least on the inside.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Dude, I think Boston weather is better than Dallas weather these days. Probably a bit colder but we've had quite a relatively warm streak (which has come to an end but can bounce back to) and practically no snow whatsoever. like less than 2 inches totall all winter.

You're probably right. We're going to be at about 28 tonight. However while he's up there with y'all, we'll be in the low to mid 60's (which is right about my chilly/too cold to be outside point).

Always Anti-fascist!

Damn y'all... Just like Dag, that's cold. We were tripping a few weeks back cause it was 37.

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

Stupid Comics

Just what the link says.

As a special Christmas treat for you, Mister Kitty takes a look at annuals from a vanished industry that many people outside England never knew existed - British girls comics. For almost fifty years publishers like IPC and DC Thompson were cranking out weekly titles with names like Tammy, Judy, Mandy, and of course Bunty, the first British girl's comic. As literature for young ladies, these comics naturally featured lots of stories about plucky ballerinas, airline stewardesses, and horses. But just like their more masculine counterparts Starlord and 2000 AD, British girls comics seem to have a flair for the goofy, the bizarre, the surreal. Just check out the hook in our first example.

The example is the comic, "My Brother's a Chimp!" The other examples are equally stupid, if not more....

You know, I am reconsidering coming to Chicago. Ever again.

It'll be warmer in two weeks! I hope!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Below freezing is not warm!

Hey, the normal high for this time of year is above freezing.

Anything near freezing, close to freezing, or in shouting distance of freezing is NOT WARM.

Comparatively speaking, I'll be ready to bust out a T-shirt and sandals and head to the beach if we get close to freezing.

Er. This isn't helping, is it?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

This is why, the first day that comes anywhere near 60 degrees, people head out with summer wardrobes.
