Dear Massachusetts,
After careful examination out of the window, it has come to my attention that your weather sucks.
Please cease sucking, forthwith.
Yours, Etc. and so-forth,
Tom

(and, be it noted, that my fists are not wee and cute like, say, Teppy's or msbelle's gittery fists or ita's fluffy bunny fists; no, I have the big hammy - and, incidentally, very threatening when waved at slippery eel continental references - fists of a woman of 5'10").
(I myself am only 5'5", which is mostly irksome but sometimes troubling as I can imagine somewhere in the world a woman of 5'10" with little itsy bitsy fists that scare nobody, looking at her tiny faerie-like hands and weeping, "Why, God, why?")

Thanks... I have become one of those crack- addicted animals that hits the Read New button...

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Damn, I already read *that*...
t hits Read New again...
edited because New and Now are different and though what I meant is "Now!!!", the button is clearly labeled Read New...

Madrigal Costello in F2F:
Well, I'm ferrying some people to and from Klingon Language Camp and Klingon Warrior Training, so it's going to be a bit like camping, and for a sing-along, I'm going to make them sing "Backdoor Lover" in their costumes.
How can you help but love her?

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
NoiseDesign: Running lights on modern gear is pretty much all about hitting a button marked GO when the stage manager tells you to.
Theodosia: The trick is pushing it with panache.
NoiseDesign I tried pushing it with my panache, but the police had words with me about doing that in front of the children.

P.M. Marcontell on gardening:
Oh, the Morning Glory had spread while I had my back turned, and resulted in me only managing to get rid of half of it. Hate that stuff.
Hate hate hate.
However, I LOVE my weedwacker, and I love using it on things I shouldn't, and getting covered in green slime as a result. I also love my pruning thinger. Clipper.
I must have a chainsaw, so as to speed the trimming of large objects.
Gardening is like fighting nasty green demons with the largest possible tools for me.

On the characters to be in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen:
Shawn:
Can someone explain what Dorian Gray's power is supposed to be?
Penny B:
Quipping? Someone should explain to the producers that one can't get by on quipping alone - there has to be slayage also.
Matt the Bruins fan:
I'm afraid that they've turned him into a Jasonesque unstoppable killing machine, but how great would it be if we got Stephen Fry belittling opponents with witty bon mots until they ran off sobbing?
