Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

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

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

sarameg: First, Canada was missing.
shrift: Hee. May I just say that I love this problem? I mean, really. I'm tempted to run around the office yelling "Canada is missing! Canada is missing! We're going to fall into the Arctic Circle! We'll crush Santa! Heeeeelp!"

Followed by:
Beverly: Erm, how do you misplace whole countries, sarameg?
Ouise: I also am curious about the disappearance of Canada (you'd think I'd have noticed).
Anne W: Me, I find that they tend to slip inbetween the couch cushions along with the spare change.
Beverly: Is that why the couch is sitting so lumpy these days? Why, look at at that!
Anne W: Yeah, the Andes range can be hell on the back if you let it sit there.
sarameg: That also might explain why some cats insist on peeing on certain pieces of furniture: someone lost portions of the great deserts there.

I love John Glover. Can't get enough of the creep factor he brings to his scenes.

Oh, hell yes. Lionel could order toast in a diner and leave me all paranoid and questioning the implications.
meara:
Hah!!! Well, sure! Cause, ya know, why is he in a diner? Why not a nice restaurant? Is he skulking? Why not a full breakfast? Why just TOAST? Is it a code word? Is he meeting some employee there, who's familiar with the diner, and who he couldn't meet in a nice place, and he's afraid to eat anything cause it'll be gross, so he figures they can't mess up toast??

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
