Dear Dana's Boss,
Send Dana home.
Love,

I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

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

The associate across the hall just kind of implied that the fact that I couldn't get a lower court opinion issued within the last week from the FRIGGING BAHAMAS meant I wasn't very good at my job.
I vote you steal his/her credit card, buy yourself a ticket to the Bahamas with it, and send him his lower court opinion from the beach.
ita and lori feel better.
Sue, congratulations on the new job! Don't do all that old job work... it's not like they'll fire you.

A prediction on future food from 1958: Closer Than We Think! Fat Plants and Meat Beets (1958)
There will be less grazing land in tomorrow's crowded world, so beefsteaks may have to be replaced by extracted vegetable proteins flavored with synthetics that taste like real meat.
According to Cal Tech biologist James Bonner, new varieties of plants, rich in fats and edible proteins will be developed. Interest in this idea is already evidenced at the Michigan Agricultural Board where plans for a "phytotron" - or ultra-controlled greenhouse - are under way. This equipment will facilitate the study of plant characteristics - and show how to modify them.
Bonner also predicted at a recent Seagram scientific symposium that future farms could be operated by tapes fed through master control panels.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Allyson, isn't this the same apartment building that banned you from the common areas during most of the time you would actually want to use it after one noisy (nothing worse) party? You have asshat landlord and neighborhoods who don't understand personal boundaries. Yeah, totally time to move.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is that better than a Zoot Suit with a drape shape and reet pleats?

Yoda stamp the post office does release today
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Postal Service sought to harness the force Thursday, releasing a new postage stamp featuring Star Wars’ enigmatic Yoda, known for his odd syntax as well as his wisdom.
The Jedi master’s stamp was originally part of a multi-stamp Star Wars set and is now available as an individual stamp following a public vote on which of that set should receive special attention.
