This is not that far from my house.
Oh crapcakes.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
facepalm
And it was a doublepost.
Shrift, I just dropped by your LJ. Why do you love us so?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Dana, are all the pictures in that gallery current? If so there's a fire near our Houston office.

And this is how urban legends are born. Like Hil not knowing Sting was in a band (Which she claims is totally apocryphal)
And Holli being an Eskimo!

I suppose the NYTimes and other papers have to develop a style to deal with Internet pseudonyms, come to think of it.
At least with frosting and errant quote marks, you could use a small knife to excise the excess punctuation. Me, though, I'd be taking pictures to post on the Internets.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Indeed, 'tis quite lovely!
Randomly my firm has started serving a cheese plate in the caf after lunch. The cheese is hit-or-miss but the condiments are top-notch-- fig cake, walnuts, dried apricots, almonds and cranberries-- like Artisanal would serve it. So I am having cheese and sides for lunch.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Jeepers, Dana, be careful going home.
Indiana library cards sound very glamorous. That does not look like it's spelled right.
Thanks for the congratulations, y'all. I'm a teensy weensy bit less excited since my real estate agent hasn't called to say when I can get the keys from him. My perfectly fitting diamond shoes got a little schmutz on them, I guess.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
At the least, DJ, I think it would be from early this morning. I'm not at all convinced any of those pictures are current except the flooding. (Dates would be helpful, chron.com.)

That has been the only good thing about today so far. Thank you, shrift.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wish I had a cheese plate.
Between Tropical Storm Allison and Katrina, I think I've developed a real twitchiness about storms. I didn't quite realize that until recently.
Yeah, that seems pretty reasonable, all things considered. Good luck!
