The wife of one of the guys in my department took the married name of Christina Christina, FWIW.
I think FWIW would make a good last name.
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just ate breakfast and watched The Daily Show and was pleased to find out that Aasif Mandvi is now an official correspondent there.
Yay, Aasif! Now, if they could just give Larry Whitmore (that is his name, right?), their Senior Black Correspondent, more airtime, I'll be happy. Those two, as well as John Oliver, are the best guys they've got. Samantha does better with the spoof stuff (last night's "TDS" was really funny, and I like her consumer alerts--you're going to die NOW!), and Jason Jones is just annoying to me. John Hodgeman is going to be like Louis Black, a part-time contributor with his special segments, but that's fine.

Okay, I managed zen for about two hours, and now my misanthropy is kicking in hardcore.

And Barq's is the only decent root beer.
Untrue! You need to try more root beers. Virgil's, Henry Weinhardt's...
We like Cheerwine around this house.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
So I'm going to cut off my arms, I think, and then they won't itch any more. This sounds like a plan to me.
Also, the one true root beer is Barq's in a bottle.

Samantha does better with the spoof stuff (last night's "TDS" was really funny, and I like her consumer alerts--you're going to die NOW!), and Jason Jones is just annoying to me.
They are kind of a matched set, though.
Does anyone remember the comedy skit from some 80s variety show that involved people trying to come up with a marketing campaign for Okra Cola?
No but I remember Woody on CHEERS being set up as a spokesperson for a vegetable drink...until he actually tasted it. "You can really taste the kale."

I had a really good root beer on Sunday--Sprechers, from Wisconsin. Very yummy. The only thing that would have made it better would have been some B&J Vanilla ice cream (yummmm, root beer floats...)

My roomates work at the only store in the state of Maryland that stocks Cheerwine. They're very proud of this fact. I don't drink soda, though, so I can't comment on whether they're right to be so.
