Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm excited because I just figured out that I can get a haircut sometime soonish. I was thinking I wanted one, but then thinking that was stupid, because it hasn't been that long, but it's been two months already! Which, I often go longer than that, but in the summer I need it thinned out SO BAD.

Rick, am I misremembering or are you up Minnesota way?

I grew up in Minnesota but don't live there now. All of my peole are ok. Still, the familiarity of the bridge (it's right on the U of Minnesota campus) is making the tragedy more powerful for me.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Many sympathies, Erin and family.

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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Am I overreacting, or is this woman kind of a twit? The article has pictures.

Jennifer Cohen thought she had a good understanding of her company's policy allowing business casual attire. So the 24-year-old was stunned when an older colleague pulled her aside to tell her she was dressing inappropriately by donning Bermuda shorts, sleeveless tops and capris.

"Each generation seems to have a different idea of what is acceptable in the workplace, and in this situation I was highly offended," says Cohen, who works at a marketing firm in Philadelphia. "I was actually not allowed to attend a meeting because my attire was deemed 'inappropriate.' People my age are taught to express themselves, and saying something negative about someone's fashion is saying something negative about them."

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

She is deffinately a twit.

On the other hand, I like to express myself by taking two and a half hour lunches every day. My generation was taught that its part of who we are to go to the gym, have a nice salad with some friends, and maybe look at some shoes. t /Carrie Bradshaw
