Thrive to spite them

I had forgotten Heaton was a spokesperson for Albertsons and those were her beliefs.

I go there occasionally because it's close, but their new ads are driving me insane. Some woman saying she's worked there for 11 years and never seen anything like it, the changes and if I go there I can feel it in the air and see it in their experts.

Well, that's nice, but I'd actually like to know what those changes are, a cleaner store would be nice to start with.

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

So, go watch blade runner at friend's house or dick around on the computer? Only one of these requires taking a shower.

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

But the other requires washing your hands. Well, if you were a guy anyway....

You know how some religious people feel they should proselytize, but then they don't want to impose their religion on others? Well, if you're a fundamentalist Christian, you don't have to worry about that - it's impossible to "impose" your beliefs on others....

Some people don't practice evangelism because they feel they are imposing on others. And the way evangelism is often done, I can understand the confusion! But when you understand what the Bible presents as evangelism, it's really not a matter of imposing your beliefs.

It's important to understand that the message you are sharing is not merely an opinion but a fact. That's why sharing the gospel can't be called an imposition, any more than a pilot can impose his belief on all his passengers that the runway is here and not there.

That's nice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Der. He totally can. And people can die if he's not right.

Grr. My replacement bluetooth headset mike doesn't want to play.

I need to eat. Today. Something. Other than that brownie.

Let me go gather my strength.

Actually, he can. They're just not likely to survive the process.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I have 1 BumGenius AIO that I love, but I haven't used the pockets. (I've been waiting for D to finally *really* outgrow all of his size small AIO and pocket dipes before buying any new ones - since we mostly use prefolds, the others are basically babysitter diapers so we only need a few.) I think the 3.0's have some upgrades to the elastic and the aplix tabs, and maybe the fit? I can't see any huge differences from the pictures except that they seem to have added a new color (pink).

We were mostly using prefolds. But the BumGenius pockets---love the one-size fits many. And? SO absorbent and leak free that we can get thought the night. We have enough to use if we wash every day. But we mix them with prefolds for daytime use.

Man. Diapering is so weird.
