Happy Birthday Dana!
Happy Birthday Ellie!
Also, didn't we already know the thing about red wine?
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'

Our wings are not tired.
I vote NO RIFS. No more Buffistas need to be let go. Ever.
Happy Birthday, Dana and Ellie (omg SO CUTE Ellie!)!
Meara, I think we might have been in Cork at the same time; I had the same experience! Especially with the Irish who wanted to know about the "Kerry" in John Kerry. I was there the last week of August. You?
Jesse, didya know the organic milk lasts a whole hell of a lot longer than regular? I'm ascareder of curdles than I am of venomous snakes. I buy organic because it lasts months. I read that in the Consumer Reports "Shop Smart" magazine and they're right. I just got back from a 2 week vacation and my milk is f-i-n-e.

The study did not compare the effects of bottled wine vs box wine.
But it's about the effects of resveratrol, which oxidizes quickly. So, if you're not drinking the whole bottle in, I think, about an hour, the resveratrol is gone. Boxed wine isn't exposed to the air until you pour a glass.
(I read an article about all that by a guy who doesn't like wine but started drinking one glass a day for the health benefits. Which convinced me to do the same. So go team boxed wine.)

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I vote NO RIFS.
I must be behind on my corp-speak. All I see in this statement is that juliana firmly does not believe that Reading Is Fundamental.

Nah, javachik--I was in Dublin literally the week before the 2004 election (I voted absentee because I was coming back the day before the election and was afraid any issues with my plane might mean I'd not be home in time to vote!). And I got to meet Jars and see the museum with her!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

MM, have you the brainworms? 'tis javachik using the corporate-speak.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DANA!!!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, didya know the organic milk lasts a whole hell of a lot longer than regular?
Huh, that's interesting. I don't know what went wrong this time, because I'm usually fine drinking a quart of milk in a week. Of course, you know what else lasts longer? Half and half.

Gotcha, Meara, I was there in August of 2004 and they wanted my opinion on the election something fierce. It was awesome. But it was also a little bit unnerving that the Irish seemed more interested in our election than some of the 'Mericans I knew did.
And I didn't get to see Jars, dammit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think ATK or CI did a thing on why organic milk lasts longer. Or someone. Anyway, there's a reason. t /helpful

Happy birthday Dana! Now With Extra Bolding and Bangs!!!
I hope that your coworkers leave you alone and shrift innundates your inbox with delectable porn.
ION, the orb! It burns! It's already crested the skylight at 9:45 and I'm freakin' blinded.
Hell, we could collaborate and you could have Laser Cats.
I'm not going to vote for this unless it's the Ministry of Cats With Frickin' Lasers On Their Heads.
