I had a whole section about civic pride.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

GF and I had BLTs for dinner last night. Not sure if they're grown-up food or not, but they were yummy.

ION, we've almost got our living room back following the move-in. It's only taken us three weeks. We packed up a lot of my empty boxes yesterday (I hadn't realized just how many of the boxes on my shelves were empty) and took them out to the storage unit to make room for gf's stuff. Another week and we may actually be able to see the game table again.

I remembered that the vending machine still has mocha frappuccinos, so I didn't have to stab any coworkers for their caffeine.

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 wonder if tired vampires ever suck the blood of the already caffeinated....

I hate FedEx. They keep insisting a postal code in India doesn't exist. Despite the fact that it's listed on the city's municipal site. And they won't even consider they might be wrong.

They did this to me over a medium sized city in the Ukraine once.

I hate them.

How's the GF doing, Kalshane?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Tom Waits wrote "Chocolate Jesus" after his FiL (no lie) decided to sell religious themed breath mints. They were called Sacra-mints.

Nuh-uh. They were called Testa-mints.

IIRC.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

ooh ... sarameg, they did that to me once for an address in Canada. I just about went crazy. And this was AFTER I'd wrestled with their import/export documents. I was about to hand-carry a package up there.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Fedex is not good with international shipping. I've found DHL to be much more reliable, except no US companies have DHL accounts.

What is even happening?

I think the chocolate Jesus statue is offensive (in a petty way, and not because he's nude -- because Jesus probably was nude on the cross) and I don't think it's at all comparable to communion, and rolled my eyes a little at that comparison. But I also think this is a tempest in a teapot. I hope I wouldn't do/haven't done anything that tacky, petty, or disrespectful of another religion, but a lot of people do a lot of things I don't do. I'm glad both that they're free to do things that don't hurt anyone (and this doesn't -- it's just tacky-petty), and that when they do them it isn't an invitation to violence. Art I find icky is not persecution.
