I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

From Natter:

Steph L.: (Note: gold stars have no cash value. Do not eat gold stars, put gold stars in eyes or open wounds, and do not feed gold stars after midnight. See your doctor if you experience any of the following: testicles growing in stranges places, the uncontrollable urge to sing that song John Ashcroft wrote, or a deep and abiding love for Zamfir and his pan flute.)

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

billytea: Rice in a tube still strikes me as more acceptable than cheese in a can. Neither, however, compares to Chicken in a Biskit.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

billytea, in F2F: context be damned. DAMNED, I SAY!

Pardon me boy... Is-that-the-Calling-of-Cthulhu? Track 29, madness outside of time...

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

In high school a friend of mine had a step father named Roy. When they got a cat, the cat chewed his new pair of shoes.

and we always used to sing...

Pardon me Roy, is that the cat that chewed your new shoes...

and I think of that every time I hear the song.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

AmyLiz, discussing the scintillating cocktail party chatter of two relatives: Their first topic of conversation? The comparative price of milk in different parts of the country.

tommyrot: Well, it's a significant issue after Katrina shut down all the Gulf coast milk refineries.

AmyLiz: ::smacks forehead::

I forgot!

tommyrot: Plus Katrina caused a milk tanker to run aground in the Gulf. Disaster was narrowly averted when the National Guard decided not to wait for FEMA authorizaion to activate the Emergency Cat Division.

brenda m: Which authorization might've come in a lot sooner if W hadn't had appointed a (wealthy and conservative) terrier to head Operation Spilled Milk.

Gudanov: Limbaugh characterized media complaints about the delay in authorization as "just crying over spilled milk".

tommyrot: Meanwhile Limbaugh was having his maid buy black-market half-n-half for him. Limbaugh continues to deny rumors that he has a gray Persian named "The Gray Lady" and a Russian Blue named "Mister Piddles."

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

And dw brings the follow-up:

The highlight of the incident was when Sen. Landrieu was paying compliments to various politicians and talking about the billions FEMA had put into cat deployment when Anderson Cooper cut her off.

I haven’t heard that, because, for the last four days, I’ve been seeing people in the streets here in Mississippi with mouthfuls of Oreos and nothing to wash them down with. And to listen to politicians thanking each other and complimenting each other, you know, I got to tell you, there are a lot of people here who are very upset, and very angry, and very much want to toss their cookies.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Allyson in Natter (now THAT'S how to attend a Hollywood Movie Premier):

Kat and I developed an intracate form of sign language to snark on the movie without offending the producers and studio people in front of us.

It was like MST3K for the deaf.
