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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Dude. Cleaning a rollerball mouse is so incredibly satisfying.

Not nearly as satisfying as the Q-tip cleaning eargasm, IMHO.

That last one is my favorite, shrift.

I really really like that one, too. If it's in the Nordstrom downtown, I am definitely trying it on this week.

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

A quiz on cars and pop culture, aimed mostly at baby boomers.

I got 63% right (they are multiple choice).

Some of the questions are results of surveys, etc. that I just had to guess at. Some I'm too young to know. At least one question I dispute their answer. Still, I coulda' done better.

Ooh. The guy who did the Stanford prison experiment is on the radio right now.

He was on the daily show last week. His book sounds very interesting.

shit rock/drywall

I think I'd prefer the drywall option. Shit rock wouldn't fit with my decor.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Finally I get to employment. "Employer: XYZ Services, Inc. Occupation: Shit rock/drywall."

My mother has a friend from Puerto Rico who refused to say the word "sheet," because she just couldn't believe it didn't sound exactly like "shit." She said "bed linens." Seriously.

I think she's full of sheet.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Our coworker at the youth center told the SO he'd spent all day cleaning out the shed. But the SO heard "shit" and was sitting there thinking to himself, yeesh, must have been a mess.

Okay, my new shredder shreds credit cards & cds. Someone stop me before I shred every single thing in this office.

Does it shred stuff with staples in them? Paper clips? Shit rock?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yes, yes, and I haven't tried. In fact, I think it's deprecated my staple remover.
