I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

This was totally just an excuse to get dogs drunk.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

frottage is pronounced fro-tahje. It's from the french "frotter", to rub.

I always thought it rhymed with "cottage." Because "Frottage Cottage" is just fun to say. (And might be a niche market for the Bed & Breakfast venue.)

Actually on the second Puppy Bowl I thought the kitten halftime was better. But they stopped dropping crap on their heads this year, so the kittens were much less festive.

Right? I was sorely disappointed in kitten halftime this year.

Ann, that's a ferret.

If I may quibble about the article, there's no Wisconsin University (it's University of Wisconsin). But I have to wonder if the experiment was inspired by the Jim Stafford song, "Your Bulldog Drinks Champagne."

And Teddy often wears the expression of the cat in the squid hat. Especially right after taking his meds.

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

Ordering from Target online doesn't get me the tops tomorrow though, which is a downside.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is there no cheapish general clothing store near by?

Also, I kind of like the word frottage, except for the part where I have had people doing frottage on me in the subway and that's one of the nastiest things ever. That goes on in the subway.

ita, yes, Ross should have some.

Clive Owen defends the con-going:

Just when I think Clive Owen couldn't possibly get hotter, he proves me wrong. I'm okay with that.

That's why I asked about Ross. It's really random, though. I'd never looked at the men's section, and I swear the women's section is radically different in every store.

I can't make out their retail model--them or Marshall's.

Thanks, Sparky!

It's too early for me to talk about Clive Owen. Haven't had me tea yet.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That's not a cat!

That's not a cat, it's the thing that stalks my nightmares.

It's so nice to know other people are here, fighting the good fight, while I was sleeping in.

Ordering from Target online doesn't get me the tops tomorrow though, which is a downside.

This is true, but I bet Sparky is right, and Ross will have some.

ION, Sparky is very hard to type before I have had coffee.

I'm usually completely oblivious. Some guy was rubbing against me on a train, and I didn't notice until the woman next to me called him out, and I was like "stop what?" and she explained that he was rubbing himself on me, but somewhere innocuous like my arm or my side. I was reading a magazine, listening to my iPod, in my own world.
