Cake! How charming.
Well, it's that or death, and they tried that the first time.
You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

Ken Buddha:
Sorry people, until you drive in Massachusetts, you don't know what aggressive driving is really like. Lately, I've been noticing us having a profound affect on the surrounding New England states - Maine drivers used to be polite as could be (and generally still are off-season) but if there's a possibility that there might be any Mass-holes driving in the vincinity, Maine drivers turn into, well, Maine-iacs.
Factor in the fact that most Mass. drivers are also really, really BAD drivers, and that the road systems were mapped out by 17th century cows, throw in the lovely New England attraction that is the Rotary, and you have some of the most exciting driving in the country. And that's when it's not crappy weather-wise.
I've found it helps to treat it like a video game that can actually kill me.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Narrator, continuing the driving theme:
Texas drivers are aggressive, insane and armed.
Note to self: Stay out of Texas.
The Massachusetts drivers are armed too, and an RX-7 can be a lot deadlier than a 30-06 in the wrong hands.
Note to self: Stay out of Massachusetts, too.
Utah drivers are unarmed insane idiots with children, so they're OBVIOUSLY the most important people on the road.
Note to self: Well, you were never going there anyway.

billytea: Y'know, it's really ok. I mean, it hurts, because otherwise I'd feel pretty silly calling it pain. I might call it 'whiffle-bat' or something, and then where would we be? "Oh, woe is me. Share my experience. Feel my whiffle-bat."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Catching up in Natter--
Madrigal: I think of all the Beatles except for John have done cameos on "The Simpsons" - and since then George Harrison and Linda McCartney have died, so maybe it wasn't such a safe choice for Ringo. There's quite a number of musicians and singers who've died after appearing on "The Simpsons": Barry White, John Entwistle, Tito Puente, Joey Ramone, Johnny Cash, etc. It's almost as dangerous as being a drummer for Spinal Tap.
DX:

Does the irony escape him much?
Jaqueline Zahas:
The irony not only escapes him, it has leapt out the window, hopped in a cab and then sneaked onto an international flight, hidden for several years in Stockholm under an assumed name, returned home with a full set of beautifully crafted fake identity papers, settled into its new life, lived that life fully and richly, and died at an advanced age surrounded by its fat and snarky grandchildren, before he even notices that something ruffled his hair as it sailed over him.
