Is this a Stargate thing?
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Tomorrow night I go our for Brazilian food and then to see Crowded House at the Orpheum. I am VERY excited.
Sunday, to Lowe's to look for a replacement vanity top for the bathroom. The one that was here when we bought the house is all cracked and sad and I have been wanting to replace it for yonks.
I am actually looking forward to both things--and this almost makes up for the fact that despite both of us sticking 100% to this diet, I lost nothing this week, and the DH lost 8 lbs. Is this fair, I ask you?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I had Thai food for lunch and now I am in a spicy-starchy stupor.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I just woke up. I should go work on editing an article I'm writing. But that would involve getting off the couch. So maybe not.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Shrift, have you been to Jaffa Bagel?
No! I usually don't make it that far east as I am a lazy bastard when it comes to lunch. I'll have to try it next week, thanks!

Oh that is awesome news.
Huh. I didn't realize Portia was Australian.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is pretty interesting, if you're interested in the nuts and bolts of presidential campaigning: What Went Wrong?
The exclusive story of Hillary's fall, as told by the high-level advisors, staffers, fundraisers, and on-the-ground organizers who lived it.
Damn, they made a lot of mistakes....
eta:
"There was not any plan in place from beginning to end on how to win the nomination. It was, 'Win Iowa.' There was not the experience level, and, frankly, the management ability, to create a whole plan to get to the magical delegate number. That to me is the number one thing. It's starting from that point that every subsequent decision resulted. The decision to spend x amount in Iowa versus be prepared for February 5 and beyond. Or how much money to spend in South Carolina--where it was highly unlikely we were going to win--versus the decision not to fund certain other states. ... It was not as simple as, 'Oh, that's a caucus state, we're not going to play there.' That suggests a more serious thought process. It suggests a meeting where we went through all that."
