On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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.

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

We've officially busted out the Morlock jokes here at Chez Ghetto Skyscraper. Someone who isn't moving down to the sub-sub-sub-basement just gasped, "Nobody comes back from there!"

You don't need to exagerate when you say your work is a pit of despair.

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

Jesse you have cancer. Sorry.

Also as a person who frequently falls and bumps into things, it might be sore for a few days, as Dana says.

Jesus changed water to wine at a wedding celebration so that the party could continue--he was a happenin' dude!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Actually, it's the C.H.U.D. you have to worry about more. The Morlocks have gotten kind of lazy lately.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Rabies shots for indoor cats are so silly. If my cat gets outside, he'll have bigger problems than rabies!

Watch out for the mole people, too.

On the other hand, you might just get to meet Sewer Urchin down there too.

Punishingly Intricate

Ibuprofin is a genius idea, though. I'll take some now.

Be sure to take it regularly! like, 600 mg now and 600 more at 9. Or 800 now and 800 at 11 pm.

CHUD is why you never walk over the subway grates, I tell you what.

Wah wah.

I just called the cable company to ask a question, and he gave me HBO and Cinemax for a month free. Is there anything in particular I should be watching?

Also, I'm excited to get the HD box, but I'm sad I'm going to have to fully reprogram my DVR. I have a ton of shit on there!
