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

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Aimee in Bitches, on Emma Jayne's being head down and ready to go:
She is fully aware that there is only ONE exit available to her unless it is an emergency. And as far as inflatable safety devices go, she can grap a boob.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Aimee's on a roll....
It started off from an old comedy bit where someone said that when they get pulled over, they keep a maglite in their and when the cop flashed the light in his eyes and ask what he doing, the comic would do the same.
My mind processes being what they are (read:insane) I always thought that would come in handy for those yearly womenly exams. Doc goes down there with his light and there's a little foreman guy who is all dressed in sperlunking gear with a miner's helmet on, wondering who the hell's out there and what's up with him bringing the sun. Anyway, that is VAGINA MAN. He leads the way to the cervix, he's kinda this gruff Jersey construction guy...."Ya gotcher cervix up here, it's strong. Had a baby once-nastiest thing. Took us forever to get shit shored up right again."

Alibelle's commentary on an article about soldiers in Iraq.
But Nadine Stratford of Rock Hill, S.C., said her godson Colin Durham, 20, has been happy with his time in Iraq. She has not heard from him since the platoon was detained.
"When I talked to him about a month ago, he was fine," Stratford said. "He said it was like being at home."
What the hell kind of home is he from???

Hey. New board.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Not a funny, but definitely worth preserving:
Deb in Great Write Way--
And trust me on this, because I have never not wowed people, not ever, not once in my life. And my superwomanness, when it comes to whatever I make, is about as relative as dust and about as insubstantial as a ray of moonlight. That stuff doesn't matter. It can only hinder.
Not easy, but true. The creation is the stuff that matters. Give it every weapon you can.

Jesse , in Natter:
And, after watching America's Next Top Model with two straight guys last night, I realized the full brilliance of the show -- it stereotypically appeals to EVERYONE. Straight women like examining other women, straight guys and lesbians like hot chicks, and gay guys like fashion and cattiness. It's perfect!

Cindy talks about reading Bill Clinton's book, and provides the setup:
Dear Self,
Do yourself a favor, and stop reading Bill Clinton's book until the election is over. If it goes the way you want, you'll enjoy it more. If it doesn't, you can lose yourself in it, and probably ration the pages such that it lasts at least 1/2 way through the next term.
Love,
You Know Who
