The smart people saw the movie. Much less of a waste of precious time.
Willow: Were there dolphins? Tara: Yes. Many dolphins at the pound. Willow: Was there a camel? Tara: There was the front of a camel. A half-camel.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm just glad Dianetics isn't on the list.

Here in retirementville we hear lots of stories of early sweethearts finding each other again after being widowed. It must be easier to start again with someone you knew than a stranger. Guy across the street was married for 40+ years and less than a year after she died he married an old girlfriend from high school.
At the moment we have not so many old folks as spring breakers. There were 6 girls in bikinis at the 7-11 when I stopped earlier.

I have no idea, but GONE WITH THE WIND? How many people have actually READ the book, and not just seen the movie.
When we were in Atlanta, GF and I toured the Margaret Mitchell house and they said that GWtW is the biggest selling book in history behind the bible. So somebody is reading it (though I haven't).
ETA: They said Harry Potter was nipping at its heels...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I didn't mean head replacement, but was thinking more of head addition. It would be conjoining, I guess.
Huh. So suppose someone is dying, and the only option to save their life would be to transplant their head onto their spouse's body.
I suppose some people might agree to this but... I imagine almost all doctors would consider it unethical.

This was an episode of Futurama, incidentally. (Fry's head on Amy's body.)

My spouse would be outta luck. I am not having his head transplanted on me.

Still appalling, mind.

GF read it after our Atlanta trip. She couldn't believe how racist it was. She kept having me read passages - definitely racist. Ick.
