Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Googling leads me to believe it's an underground ad campaign from a London ad agency in 2000.

It's like a pornstar + something indefinable and indefensible.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan
Happy Birthday, Emmett! Emmett and Matilda are too, too sweet.
When my brother was really little he used to call me, "Mommy." He'd go toddling through the house going, "Mommy!" And my mom would be like, "What is it?" And he'd be all, "Not you. Other mommy." And I even used to carry him around, even though I had, maybe, 20 pounds and one foot of height on him. He was a very solid baby, and there is only 3 1/2 years difference between us. But I very distinctly remember him being born. My Rainbow Brite doll saw him before I did, because I couldn't see into the window, and it took awhile before I got someone who would lift me up to see him. So I held Rainbow Brite above my head so that he would know I was there to see him too, just like I had promised him I would be.
I'm sorry, Kat! I really wanted to see you today, but the day got away from me.

A whole bunch of links and stuff about Batman: [link]
The '60s TV show, that is.
Robin and a Hooker in Kansas - I don't even know what to make of this footage. Here we have an interviewer determined to get the dirt on Batman and Robin's homosexuality and Robin producing a floozy to thwart off all suspicion. It's just too much - Burt Ward was obviously trying desperately to retain his fame and popularity as we find him in the early seventies appearing at the Joyland Amusement Park in Wichita, Kansas. It also starts off with the song Boy Wonder, I Love You.
The Burt Ward Sessions - When I heard about this project - I couldn't believe I had not heard of this project. In 1968, Burt Ward as Robin collaborated with Frank Zappa - creating one of the great novelty songs of all time Boy Wonder, I Love You. It was based on actual fan mail addressed to the young Dick Grayson. Listen to that track and its equally perverse flipside, Orange Colored Sky, composed by the eccentric Milton DeLugg (the subject of a soon to be released article in this very spot) over here. You can also hear the alternate tracks, the instrumentals, the un-used tracks and everything else from this incredible session on the same page. Read what Burt Ward had to say about his Frank Zappa record making experience in his autobiography My Life in Tights at the bottom of this page.
...and much more....

Okay, this is the cutest thing ever. Little Alibelle was very thoughtful.
Also, I adore the sibling smittenness that is the Emmett and Matilda show. It rocks. That first linked photo is framable material right there, I tell you what.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Quick French translation request for my WIP...
"Good morning, your majesty." (Majesty in question is a queen, in case gender matters.)
"And good morning to you, too, your majesty." (Here the royal being greeted is male. And it doesn't have to be a direction translation--I'm just looking for "good morning," but not with the exact same wording.)
