In Bitches:

omnis_audis: ::links to poll:: "should we remove 'in god we trust' from our currency?"

billytea: Maybe they'll replace it with "Now watch this drive".

calli: Given the way the US dollar has held up lately, I'd go with, "Now watch this dive."

WindSparrow: I remember having a conversation with my dad about the fact that the currency was no longer based on the gold standard, what was it based on. He got out a bill of some denomination, pointed and said, "Why do you think they put, 'In God we trust' on it?"

Miracleman: No wonder our economy's in the shitter. You can't walk into a church and demand a dollar's worth of God.

You wouldn't get good value for the money anyway.

Metaphysical musings in Natter:

Tommyrot: I'm wondering - if our pets go to heaven, how about all the animals I ate? Maybe in heaven I'll run into a cow who'll say, "Dude. You ate me." And I'll be all, "Sorry. But I was hungry. And if it makes you feel any better, you were very tasty."

Not funny but I wanted to put this somewhere it will be remembered; Connie Neil in Natter:

The Western mountains are rugged and majestic and gorgeous and dumb. They don't know what's coming to them. Sure, you can get lost in the wilderness, but they have no subtlety.

The Eastern mountains are old and canny and keep their secrets. You can hide in the shadows of the winding hollows and ridges and listen to the millenia of living things that have hidden there too. They look easy, but they're just waiting for someone to get stupid.

The day has that "Must throttle the next fool I meet" feel to it.

kaiser, by the look of it.

Fay in Bitches:

I mean, when I was a kid/teenager I used to go to the library with a carrier bag tucked in my pocket. Biggest haul was 42 books, iirc. Which I returned in a mostly timely fashion - but as I got older, the promptness of the book-returning began to get, ah, less prompt. Yeah.

And then after a certain number of weeks it just gets very embarrassing, and my Run Away impulse kicks in.

So in the end I fled the country.

"Chickenhawk" scans older gay guy or Foghorn Leghorn to me, though.

"Son, I say, son -- you wanna fuck?"

Alibelle: Jobama did not send me an email, so I plan on voting for McCain. Dude, I want approximately seven homes too.

Alibelle in Natter:

Everyone's so naked and fit in the diving world, I'm kind of surprised that they're not all gay.

In Natter (this just made me laugh and laugh):

Barb: I was proposed to in a bathroom.

Steph L: Don't brag.
