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

I was just on amazon's top 100 for nonfiction, #97.

Earlier I noticed your sales rank had fallen to four thousand something from three thousand something. Now you're up to #2,736.

You're just all over the place, missy.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I hear "hash mark" and immediately think "marching band".

That's what I thought to, but I forget why. And then I thought I was craxy until you just posted.

Sophia is me, but I remember why, also HAH!

call "#" a "hash mark".

Is that what a hash mark is? I though it was just a little line you draw to represent an item, l, which if you get five of them you draw a diagonal like through the llll (and if I was clever, I could think of a way to represent that)

Those are hash marks.

eta: But one of them would still be a hash mark. My brain isn't working so well today....

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 hear "hash mark" and immediately think "marching band".

I think, "now, where did I bury my hash?"

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thank you Aimee! Also, from googling "hash marks" and "marching band" I found the name of the instrument I was given to play in marching band (I played the french horn. It had a different mouthpiece, differant shape, different keys, was pitched in a different key, AND had different fingerings, but my teacher still seemed to think it was one instrument I payed.

It is the Mellophone [link]

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I was thinking of something totally different.

And was wrong about that too. [link]

I had the wrong song.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was just on amazon's top 100 for nonfiction, #97.

That's hot.

Sarameg, was the higher bill because of a budget billing shortfall or estimated billing? In both cases, most utilities will let you set up a payment plan.
