I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Well that's a new one on me. So gross, yet evocative.

Before I committ any more comma abuse, please punctuate this sentence:
Constituency records are the private records of the Minister, and therefore are outside the scope of this procedure.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Take out the comma. You don't need it in between the compound verb.
Though I would probably switch "therefore" and "are."
Constituency records are the private records of the Minister and are therefore outside the scope of this procedure.

I need to find an image of a very minor character from Cecil B. Demented - anyone have any ideas?

Thanks Dana.
I get stupid about commas and often have to go back and take half of them out when I reread something I've written.

Oh, y'all. If I knew I'd get so much love, I'd rant sooner.
As for the "Righteous woman, would you like Sabbath candles?" question, I must clarify something - some of the clothes and cleavages I wore while being asked that left no room to doubt about just how religious I might be. Those women simply suggest the candles to any woman who looks Jewish (in the sense of any woman who's not wearing a veil or a cross).
Also, I totally want a NO shirt in Hebrew
I'm going to ask a friend of mine to do the design. If you want, I'll send it to you.

I hate my self-assessment for many reasons
1. I want someone to evaluate me-- I don't want to evaluate myself and update my own job description.
2. It is really dumb, because my bosses position is being eliminated so my goals for next year are sort of moot, and she sort of does not give a crap right now, she is just trying to find a job.
3. The assessment contains questions that are very similar to each other like "Where to you want to make improvements next year?" and "What are 3 -5 goals you will complete next year?". Also, although I know everyone needs improvement, I am at this real point with this not so hard job that there aren't a lot of improvements I can make except to stop screwing around on the internet. I mean, I know how to do my job.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I finally read the OSBP post. It strikes me as a hoax. I'm not sure why.
I can believe a spontaneous grope-a-thon happening at a con. Strange things happen at cons, and I'm sure that wouldn't be the strangest.
But to think it's feasible to organize such a thing -- immature even by the standards of 15-year-olds.
