Ooh, except I'm pretty sure Groton is "grotten" not "grow-ton." Unless it's pronounced differently in CT, which is definitely possible. See "grennich" and "greenwich," both in New England.
Kristin? Anyone?
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

I think it's Groton like grotty, but Croton like crow-tin. I remember being corrected when I said crotton for Croton-on-Hudson, and thinking at the time "Well that's dumb; it should rhyme with Groton."

Oh, maybe it was Croton, not Groton. Apparently Connecticut has one of each.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I love FNL.
Me too, with a love that could rightly be considered unholy.
C'mon, sarameg, you know you want a Coach Taylor of your very own. I can think of lots of other things to do other than kill him. Damn.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I love FNL.
Agreed. There's not an ep that doesn't end with me and Mr. Jane in tears with him yellling, "Damn this show!"
That look in Mac's eyes when he knew this could be his whole career. And then his talk with Coach. KILLED. ME. DED. Show! You made me feel bad for a racist!?!

Yep, Groton in CT is pronounced "grotten" (rhymes with rotten...not a coincidence IMO).
I've never heard of "Croton," so I can't help you with that one.

Found it! This is one of the many reasons I love FNL.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ita, I love black and cream -- less severe than gray, and also easy in the goes-with-(almost)-everything-else way.
Black and cream is an excellent color scheme for a classic car.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've been listening to this and giggling today. It's a mp3 snippet of a recent performance at the Met where a soprano briefly loses control of her vocal cords: [link]
Heh. That's especially funny because she's doing so well up to that point and then she just completely spazzes it.

I guess I should just get over myself and realise that business formal isn't my style, so I should stop trying to find a way to force the square peg on pretty much no budget at all.
Maybe add a cool scarf or funky earrings? Perhaps a wacky pin?
