Cartoonists drawing blind. It's kinda creepy, the result. Except for Dick Tracy, and in a way...also creepy.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
eta: Also, WTF is supposed to be going on in this picture?
I don't know why I'm answering, since it's not an interesting answer, but the lady is pissed because the porter prefers the gentleman with the single light suitcase.

You know those wooden doors where the top is made up of four panes? I once used a pliers to pry out the nails holding the baseboardy pieces in, scraped out some putty and used a suction cup to lift the windowpane out so I could reach in and unlock the door.
...and, see, I just... smashed. ::hangs head::
Sheryl, good thoughts for Boots.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I doubt anyone outside the NY Metropolitain area will care but CBS FM is back on the air [link]
Bye bye Jack! Bye Bye!

I really wish there were a way to estimate one's likelihood of getting a job before applying. Like, is this an area with 30 math teachers who'll apply for that one job, or have they been drafting shop teachers into it for the last couple years because there's no one for the position?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I think that info is like the real guts of credit scoring -- it'd be immensely useful to you, but the people who hold it are way too invested in keeping it a trade secret to ever let it go.

Yeah. On the other hand, once I typed that I remembered that most schools have report cards online, so I went and looked up what percentage of core classes at that school are taught by teachers not certified as "Highly Qualified," and it's 9%. So odds are fairly good. I don't entirely approve of the "Highly Qualified" system, but it may work in my favor here.
