Not stupid, Duluth. TDS=The Daily Show.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Gotcha! Makes sense from there. Thanks

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Just to enliven my bout of insomnia, while I was up at 4 AM playing solitaire on the computer, my cat silently coughed up a big fat WET hairball right in the middle of my bed, so I had to change the damn sheets before I could get back in and attempt to get to sleep again.
She should be damn glad she's so cute that I have to forgive her.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
For the first time this week, my cat was too tired to wake me up at "God, what the hell time is it?!?" o'clock in the morning. I can always tell when fall arrives, because that's when she curls up at my feet and sleeps on the bed (she never does that during the summer).
Have people here had good luck finding restaurant websites?
Chowhound's a good source, and you might want to see if there's an LA equivalent to LTH Forum in Chicago. They're a great source for restaurant recommendations here in town.

Look at it this way - if you HAD been sleeping, she might have coughed the hairball on you.

Chicago also has something called Delivery.com that acts as sort of a clearing house - you can scan menus for a gazillion restaurants and place your order through the site. It rocks. I'd bet LA and other big cities have something similar.

Oh, dear.
To some Oklahoma football fans, there are things that just aren't done in the heart of Sooner Nation, and one of them is to walk into a bar wearing a Texas Longhorns T-shirt.
That's exactly what touched off a bloody skirmish that left a Texas-shirt-wearing fan nearly castrated and an Oklahoma fan facing aggravated assault charges that could put him in prison for up to five years.

Librarian Warlord
Some states used to ban interstate wine shipment, but that was ruled unconstitutional within the last couple years.
A former student of mine was one of the lawyers who worked on the case for a vineyard. Another librarian and I helped her get her hands on some documents, and we got a thank-you of a case of assorted reds, each.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That is a pretty nice gift!
I can't check from here (BB) to make sure they service LA but two related restaurant sites may be helpful. I know seamlessweb.com works in other cities and is another consolidated delivery site for neighborhood restaurants. I love it. Also, a more elite site than chowhound for finding resto reviews is egullet.com-- that has more of a professional posting base. Chowhound's recs have been a victim of its own success.
