Steph L on dusting:
Take rag. Swipe across surface of furniture. Repeat as necessary. You can even buy Pledge Wipes now, that are pre-treated and pick up dust just by, apparently, bringing the box of wipes in your apartment.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Cindy in Natter:
Oh, funny story. My m-i-l's birthday is coming up. My kids made cards for her yesterday (on their own). She is going to be 69. On my oldest son's (age 7) card he drew a picture of her wearing a shirt with a big "69" on it, and a cape, like she was a 69 superhero. It was decorated with several 69s all over it.
My husband and I are 12 years old, and unfit to be parents, because we all but pissed ourselves while choking back laughter.

Good morning. I've been spending the morning so far determining how much I hurt. Epsom, arnica and neosporin have been applied. Apart from the sternum bruising (hammer of gun repeatedly driven into cleavage), I have no clear idea where I got all this from. I have an hour to work out if I can kickbox.
Dinner! Yesterday! I met Perkins and Laura and Laura's DH. I still think walking a marathon is insane (it'll help my point if you forget my first paragraph right now)

Betsy comments on parents who made their kid wait 45 minutes with a broken arm before they took him for medical care because "it was his fault".
Sick kids get first priority, period. And injured kids doubly so. I don't care if he was dancing naked on the roof shouting "Saddam come get me!"

Wildlife wackiness:
Perkins: but do evil giraffes make sounds? Billytea may need to correct me on this, but giraffes don't make sounds, IIRC.
scrappy: Giraffes say "Look at my lovely long neck and my beautiful eyelashes. I want you to come pet me and I will nuzzle you softly and be your friend forever." At least that's what they say to me.
Oh, not OUT LOUD, that would make the rest of you feel left out.
Jess PMoon: Evil giraffes narrow their eyes evilly and say "I'm going to eat more leaves than I should."

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Betsy Hanes Perry: I took a Lush bath in my tiara last night.
David S: I would be sad that there's no photographic evidence of this, but the mental image is pretty clear. (With modesty preserving bubbles.)
Betsy Hanes Perry: Screw modesty. There was glitter. There was yonks of glitter. Not a bubble in sight.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I think you should include my enthusiastic "Okay!" to Betsy's immodesty.

If I only had a brain...
Spoilery for Buffy: PMM: I was picturing the FE staring wistfully at a row of Devil Ducks, wishing it could take a bubble bath and damning the whole incorporeal thing, damning it all to heck.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Remember Glory's fondness for bubble bath? And mimosas?
