You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

I can have a quart-sized bag with anything I can fit inside, as long as each container is under 3 oz., right?

yes. You can have larger bottles for contact lens solution though, up to 4oz, I think.

Funny saline story:

When I was admitted to the hospital, neither of us had any necessities. K wanted to take her contacts out but had no solution. So I bugged a nurse and she came back with a bottle of saline (glass bottle) and a needle and syringe. She drew lots up and left it for K to use. Best solution for the saline solution problem ever.

Help needed. Lori helped me pick up my new-to-me glider, but the fabric is grungey on the skirt and the ottoman. Thoughts on how to clean it?

I think you could use spray on carpet cleaners of the vacuum off variety.

You can track buses on a map in real time, or select a stop and get a list of the next four or five buses, with arrival times for each. Some bus stops have LCD displays that show the arrival times of the next few buses.

That sounds pretty cool.

He's ignorant and self-absorbed and seems to be untouched by real events in the world, including the massive suffering caused by his ignorance and self-absorption.

You forgot arrogant.

I watched The Daily Show last night and when McCain asked who has won the war if we have lost, it took me a split-second to think it was Iran.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Regarding the rail lines - apparently the mayor's plan is that we'll host the Olympics and then get a bunch extra funding for necessary rail repairs and expansion. Which... if that's what it takes, I'm all for.

I'm not sure I buy that as a selling point for hosting the Olympics. If we can't handle the repairs and expansion needed for regular traffic as it is...

I just think we'll be in construction hell for years if we win the bid.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Jon was truly bringing the righteous wrath last night with McCain.
