Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, you might want to DVR Poker After Dark this week. It's a really tough week!

You're crazy. Also, I'm already trying to decide if it's lamer that I think I have to write down a list of all the shows on my DVR list, or that there are shows on that list I'd be embarassed to write down on paper.

Punishingly Intricate

I can't work out if I think the footwear in outfit #12 (the last one) is cheap, trampy, or just clumsy.

I think the answer to that is:

She has a teacup on her head.

Unless I was looking at the wrong picture.

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

She has a teacup on her head.

That was my answer too.

Our wings are not tired

In CA, you can buy wine/beer/booze any damn time you want, as long as the store's open. Whoo!!

Has this changed recently? CA used to have a dead zone on booze sales from 2AM to 6AM.

Oak Park recently opened its first wine-bar that didn't require food to be served--until just a few years ago, the rules didn't allow for liquor to be served at non-restaurants,

Ontario had that restriction for eons - which is why most have those nasty-ass jars of pickled eggs on the bar. The law didn't say it had to be good food.

That sounds like when my college instituted a "non-salty snack" rule for on-campus parties. WTF, dudes. I went to at least one party that had an open box of pasta on a table with the chips and whatnot.

Huh. I think it's cute and I love the colors together. I'd do it in a purple/blue/teal version. Ok...not the hat or whatever.

I'm fairly certain that during most of the time I lived in NM, there were drive through windows at booze stores. I remember even Albertson's having one.

Drive through booze! I think they had those in LA... there are a few of the old school drive through dairies still and you can get booze there.

Gr. arg. Someone to please make the next half hour non stressy.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Oak Park was stricter than Ontario--you had to be a sit-down restaurant to be able to serve booze. The strip of bars along Madison Avenue in Forest Park reminds me of nothing more than the strip along Wells Street in Milwaukee near the Marquette campus when I was in college.
