Our wings are not tired.

How do those clean, though?

They clean fine. If there is a spot or something you treat that with the same stuff. It is a much more convenient thing if you have a dryer because it works better if you do a single item at a time and that is not great or time efficient with dropping quarters.

Finding a good dry cleaners, best if they do it in house, is worth the drive. Word of mouth is the best way to find the good ones so let it be known far and wide that you are looking.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Does anyone know when/if they are airing last night's GA again? It's not on tonight, as it usually is.

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

McSweeney's lists of 20 potential Democratic and 20 potential Republican presidential candidates.

Democrats:

BARACK OBAMA

Pro: Articulate; resembles foxy actor Blair Underwood.

Con: L.A. Law was kind of overrated now that you think about it.

OPTIMUS PRIME

Pro: Size; power; ability to emit short-range optic blasts.

Con: Potential attack ad: "Sometimes Optimus Prime is a robot, other times a truck. Which is it, Mr. Prime? America deserves a leader that doesn't transform whenever it's convenient."

BONO

Pro: Knowledgeable about global health issues; everyone seems to like him; Joshua Tree album.

Con: Too busy hugging everyone to actually execute the duties of office; no one likes the sound of "Vice President the Edge" or "Secretary of Health and Human Services Larry Mullen Jr."; the whole "Zoo TV" thing.

Republicans:

JOHN MCCAIN

Pro: Comforting resemblance to character actor Gavin MacLeod.

Con: Murray from The Mary Tyler Moore Show lacked leadership qualities and Captain Stubing from Love Boat got a little goofy whenever Charo was a guest star, leaving executive branch vulnerable to Charo impersonators who are actually Al Qaeda operatives.

But they're all great....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, do you think a glue-stick is going to help stop the run in my tights?

PS: TIGHTS! I'm annoyed that it's 50 degrees out.

move out and draw fire

I like this one, and I bet sarameg will too:

BILL RICHARDSON

Pro: Appeals to all Latino voters with the last name "Richardson."

Con: New Mexico is legally part of Mexico; therefore, he's constitutionally ineligible.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No, it'll just be icky.

Mmm. Tights.

Too late! I think it's OK, though.

I love tights, I do. But not when it's supposed to be summer! Or at least not freezing.

You know what I don't like? Firefox. I give up. I'm off to install Opera. I'll deal with opening a new application when sites aren't compatible. Clicking on a link and then backtracking to a page that's a) reloaded and b) scrolled back to the top? Who thought those were both good ideas? Especially b?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Huh. Firefox doesn't do that to me.

Yeah, the scrolling back to the top thing is what made me not like Firefox.
