Damn! DX beat me to Tom's goad post.
It was the "chicken in a hat" bit that left one small cat and part of a larger tabby covered in (luckily lukewarm) Medaglia d'oro espresso roast.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In Natter:
Sean: I mentioned that one of the things that I love about Judaism is the *great* storytelling. Really gripping, dramatic stuff. Jewish religion and history has some of the most powerful and interesting stuff in all of human history.
Phill: Excerpt from any conversation in my family: "...he what? What? No! Well, cancer-shmancer, as long as you're healthy. Did you hear that Lois is seeing Sol. I saw them at Kessler's at he counter. Nu? Who does it hurt. By the way, did you see that Tiger Woods, what a punum on him, such a cutie..."
Yeah, we're gripping. For every "Walls of Jericho Came Tumblin' Down", there is an equal and oposite "Judy said her youngest is going to Skidmore".
Sean: Maybe it just gets morphed over time. So that several thousand years from now, "Judy said her youngest is going to Skidmore," becomes "and Jude's youngest child, through much hardship and many plagues, parted the admissions process at Skidmore, fleeing finally into advanced education. But as the attacking army followed her in, the admissions process closed in, sweeping them away to their doom," or something like that.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
So glad someone COMMed Julie's post. Agree about the FAQ. Jess, third paragraph, can you edit "advise" to "advice"?

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