Buffy ,'Never Leave 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.
One of my great-grandfathers was gassed in WWI and was never healthy again. Of course,this worked out well when my dad had polio and needed someone to recuperate with.
My mother's father was sent to MIT to study nuclear stuff but the war ended before he finished his training. He did later serve in Korea, though.
My dad's father was too young for WWII.
Aimee, that's HILARIOUS! Thanks for the link. I am a little amazed at how well Jason Alexander moves--especially when he's on that guitar.

Isn't it awesome! And, as usual, William Shatner cracks my shit UP.
The Tramp Stamp showed up on the latest Robot Chicken. Suddenly this term is everywhere!
I want my funky new glasses to arrive so I can be all hip and stuff.
I'm guessing my granfathers were either too young, too old or too broken already for both world wars. I really have no idea.
Okay, this is just weird! I Googled my grandfather's name and got the obit for his brother, who died last year. This was in the obit:
Mr. Lawrence was a Navy veteran of World War II who participated in numerous invasions in the South Pacific, including the liberation of the Philippines.
The construction of this sentence cracked my shit up:
He was a native Augustan and a Catholic.
Hmmm...
It looks like it's night outside, seems a bit early for night to show up.
BTW, I just learned more from his obit (a measly paragraph) than my parent ever told me. That's just not right.
Oh my....
Furries vs Klingons bowling tournament this Sat in Atlanta
This Saturday, Atlanta's Midtown Bowl will see the second annual Klingons vs Furries bowling tournament, in a mighty subcultural clash. It's like Quadrophenia with furrs and trekkers instead of mods and rockers.

My grandfather was an army Chaplin in the pacific during WWII. We just had lunch with him and my grandmother this weekend. I was amazed to see him walking without his cane since he just fractured his hip three months ago. Pretty good for a 92 year old guy.
