Billytea:

Meanwhile, Huzzah! I have finished my own delaying tactic. Bec and I have been doing a jigsaw in the shape of a frog, and I just upgraded his status from 'has most of his feet and maybe half his head' to 'Awww, what a cute froggie". So, go me!

And Ms. Lizard:

Bonus points for using "huzzah" and "froggie" in the same paragraph.

ita in Bitches, explaining why she doesn't try the 'crazy' card:

I can't spit and not hit a family member that has outpsychoed me without breaking a sweat. So I have a low estimation of my abilities.

Hecubus in Natter:

Emmett: Dad, can you name a monster for every letter in the alphabet, except for the vowels?
Me: So...starting with "B"?
Emmett: No, go ahead and do the vowels too.
Me: Okay. A is...Alien. B is a Balrog.... [bunch of other monsters] and L is....uh....
Emmett: Living Dead!
Me: Right. Good one. M is for Mummies. N is uh....hmmm.
Emmett: National Living Dead!
Me: Excellent choice.
Emmett: I know a good one for Z.
Me: Okay, I'll save that one for you. [bunch of other monsters] ...and U is for Undead. And V is for Voldemort. W is Werewolf. X is X-Ray Vision Man and Y is for Yeti and Z is?
Emmett: Zombie!
Me: Perfect.
Emmett: I helped with some. Like National Living Dead. That was a good one. It would be like a sport like National Football League. Except they wouldn't have any balls they'd just kick around their heads and their hands.

Michele T.:

Well, the crazy-cult-clone-hoaxers believe we all started as alien-created clones, right? Only, now, when I think of aliens coming to earth, I find myself visualizing Tom Welling, so I guess that puts me in the pro-crazy-cult camp. Drat.

Anne W.:

Rather than Buffy, we here in the U.S. are being graced with "Funky Flubs" this evening.

I swear, television programming has dug through the bottom of the barrel and is speedily tunneling its way through the earth's crust.

Anne W., in Natter:

You know how cats can sleep really, really soundly? It's really funny to see them wake up in mid-air.

I think I'd rather wear a tiara than a veil if I ever got married. With veils I'd start thinking about all kinds of women-as-virgin-property issues, whereas with a tiara I'd just be in a princess-ish powertrip.

BHP, in Bitches

The "Who's Got The Brain" game makes my family giggle. They also like "Guillotine".

Remember, when somebody's up in a clock tower shooting at you, it's probably my kids.

Non-traditional COMM: Found poetry, by sarameg, in Literary

"That woman is writing in her books!"
"nominal" "Twelfth Night"
I very often underline words that I don't know, but that is about it.
Gone With the Wind "Mac Classic" GWTW Maltese Falcon
"Because I want to,"
"You're supposed to use yellow!" "But I want to use green." "It's supposed to be yellow!"
"you're supposed to use yellow"
"Then that's reason enough to use green."

Anne W., in Buffy, speculating on a possible series closings:

Now I'm thinking about an ending that has Suzanne Pleshette waking up next to Bob Newhart and telling him about the weird dream she had.
