Or maybe cab to the airport!
THIS. Oy. We never had problems finding a cab until this. We even had a crew of firemen trying to help us (which made the wait so much more enjoyable) but seriously - why are all the cabs gone?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good lord -- we just got a poll over email about our "summer outing" and if we would be willing to travel 1-2 hours to get to it, or if we would prefer less than one hour travel time each way. I swear I will cut anyone who answers more than an hour.
Although it's cool you can do a poll right in the email! I wonder what the results look like?

Unlike DC, where it's pretty well followed.
Ha! A few weeks ago, I hollered out "Walkers on the left, standers on the right, please!". This guy moved grudgingly over to the right and said "where did that rule come from?" I stopped, looked at him and said "it's the rule all over the world, even in the commonwealth"
side note: it really irritates me when they use wet lettuce on my sandwich, it makes the bread soggy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
While increased sizes haven’t been the sole contributor to our obesity epidemic, large quantities of cheap food have distorted our perceptions of what a typical meal is supposed to look like. These portion comparisons, adapted from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s (NHLBI) Portion Distortion Quiz, give a visual representation of what sizes used to be compared to what they are today.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Has anyone else not received their rebate check on time? Mine was supposed to be direct deposit on May 9, but I got nuthin. Wanna use it to pay my credit card.

Five Foods That Cause Anal Leakage
Escolar, sometimes sold or served under the name Hawaiian walu, butterfish, and super white tuna, is a deliciously light and buttery fish with one small problem. It contains large amounts of gempylotoxin, a waxy ester that sometimes causes the consumer to have abdominal cramping, diarrhea, and a telltale orange oily mess that destroys undergarments and dignity.
Huh.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Allyson, I was expecting it by direct deposit on May 2 (based on SSN), and I just yesterday got something in the mail saying I should expect it May 16. Methinks they're running a little behind schedule.

I got mine this week, and I should have had it May 2 as well. Which, you know, was inconvenient.
