Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

How do you set water on fire?

That is talent.

Some sort of devil worship thing?

So our HR department just sent out an email to let us know we'll be having a Graeter's ice cream sundae party.

On Monday.

That's just not on, people...

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I have had constriction in my esophagus off an on for like 4 days now and it can STOP already. feeling like I might hurl or can't swallow is no fun.

Eeep. Throat-ma msbelle. Sounds like an intermittent problem I have that was diagnosed as globus (sp?). My primary care doctor seemed to think it might be related to acid reflux, so he had me do two 14 day Prilosec treatments back-to-back. It helped (and did wonders for any heartburn problems), but I think it may also be related to what my sleep therapist doctor found, namely that my windpipe was smaller than average.

I've been trying to find out if Time Traveler's Wife has started filming or not; I do know that they originally announced filming would start in August, but that could have changed. If anyone sees Eric Bana or Rachel McAdams in town, then it's being filmed.

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

This is where the internet fails us. I always want to know what is filming in town, and it seems like that information should be aggregated somewhere.

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

The bar at the Peninsula Hotel is the place to go in Chicago if you want to see any of those people. Plus it's a cool place to hang out anyway, and actually not expensive by downtown standards.

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

If that were true, Michael Bay would probably have been stoned to death by an angry mob years ago....

Art Crawl!!!

James McAvoy!! - he's in the other movie that Morgan Freeman is filming right now. You've got Christian Bale AND James McAvoy in town and you guys haven't seen either? Also, Angelina Jolie, Terrance Stamp and Marc Warren.

Stephanie: I'm glad to hear you're not feeling nauseated anymore and that it sounds like you & baby are doing well!

I don't feel like working, so I'm cleaning up my files. Some of what I've saved is a complete mystery to me.

ETA: Have any DCistas been on one of the Full Moon hikes at the National Arboretum?

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

The internet fails the US. Canada's covered.

I love that site.
