GO TOM! I'm so impressed.

Had a conversation with a coworker who inadvertantly got married while doing a dance in Benin. Oops. No one told her that it was a marriage ceremony. She thought she was just *dancing*.

I always thought guys tended to dress toward their lower-hanging testicle, as there's more room on that side.

The things that never occur to me.

Seriously.

I'm reminded of that line in the Shrinkage episode of Seinfeld, where Elaine says, "I don't know how you guys walk around with those things."

Please share so it can be avoided, please. I mean, it's the stuff of goofy romance novels, not reality, and it's best to keep it that way. had those kind of reality dreams lately that take a while (sometimes hours) to recall they are brain fictions, not reality and that's awfully close to one out-there-one-not-hours except it involved Giant and I seriously had 5 minutes of panic before the waked up me woke up.

JK Rowling has a lot of characters, damnit. You need a bedtime story that can vanquish them all with a single glare. A Smurltlefeg, perhaps?

Hmmm, my nephew started to read them at about that age, but by then he had already watched my sister and I play so much Magic that he was probably used to all manner of creatures.

well the story is over. If it was in the middle I could have invented something. Now all I have is me, and me has to re-do two reports and get them emailed to my boss before I can go to bed.

I think my nephew was about that age too, but had recently come off a huge Star Wars kick.

JK Rowling herself says she'd start kids redaing them when they were 7.

BTW, you know how I know the exact timing of that, msbelle? It's because I know it was when I was living with your brother.
